There are a range of different types of dust extractions systems that have been developed to suit different needs. Mobile Dust Extraction units allow users to users to have a local extraction source which is flexible and can be moved to suit the operation. They also offer a low-cost option, as have minimal installation requirements. Cyclone dust extractors are high-performance separators that effectively remove larger particulate matter from extracted airflows. They are typically used to remove heavier materials from airflows such as wood, shelling and metal. They can also be used as a cost-effective pre-filter for conventional filters.

The Resolve unit is provided with a very comfortable and easy to remove stainless steel bin. This ensures that the system can be easily emptied with minimal fuss.

Any fines, dust, or particulates produced by the process are sent for destruction (or irreversible transformation). Thatcher Engineering Systems Pty Ltd, is an independently owned Australian trading company that has been selling and servicing machinery for the Sawmilling, Woodworking and Panel Equipment sectors for over 40 years, first starting in 1980 from premises in Geelong Rd, West Footscray Victoria, and moving to their current location in 1985 at 4 Govan Street Seaford Victoria. The Founder and Managing Director, Mr Russell Thatcher is still active in the day to day running of the company.

hr –100,000m3/hr+. Up to 80,000m3/hr per module, and multiple modules can be provided – so there is no upper limit on airflow.

High Quality Industrial Dust Extraction Units

Portable fume extraction is used across a wide variety of different industries and production processes. They are an essential component of any welding operation, and are frequently used in woodwork, sanding and grinding activities. They may also be used in environments where painting, plastic bonding, 3D printing, or working with epoxies is taking place. Any working environment where fumes and particulate matter is generated can benefit from a portable fume extractor. Exposure to fumes and particulate matter can be deadly. This might include occupational asthma, pneumonia, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and ‘metal fume fever’. All of these are linked and have been connected to facilities where cutting and welding work takes place. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are poisonous chemical substances that break down slowly and get into food chains as a result. The manufacture and sale of these are now banned. However, they are widely present in both the textiles and foam of domestic seating. The Resolve has an internal dropout zone allowing the majority of particulate to drop directly into the bin without effecting the filters. This increases the filter life and reduces the cleaning requirements. They create a healthier working environment, particularly for anyone undertaking close detail work using materials that are potentially hazardous to human health. Damaging particulates are filtered out of the environment helping to reduce the risk of serious health issues arising as a result of exposure.
