Challenge
- Filtering out the fumes generated in the welding process in manufacturing of one of Client’s signature products
- The work load on the welding line had grown significantly in recent times and this in turn meant more smoke and fumes on the shop floor
- The additional load on the welding line meant the ESPs that were previously installed on the welding lines were running out of capacity
Approach
- SFS’s team visited the Client’s plants to study the patterns of welding fumes and plant layout
- The team designed a layout with multiple, stand-alone filter units serving 2-3 welding stations each
Solution
- SFS deployed its newly developed Mobile Fume Extractors on the line
- The Client’s maintenance team chose to opt for SFS’s AMC to ensure optimum filtration performance
- With timely maintenance life of the filter cartridges was improved by up to 36 months
