Configuration Options for Extraction Tables
Extraction tables can be adapted to the workpiece size, contaminant, extraction system, and workplace layout depending on the application. The correct configuration not only improves extraction efficiency but also enhances usability and ease of maintenance.
Typical configuration ranges
✔ Table size and work surface
✔ Collection via tabletop, rear wall, or a combination of both
✔ built-in or external fan
✔ Filter and Pre-Separation Concept
✔ Dust collection and discharge
✔ Side panels, lighting, and workstation options
✔ Special safety or ATEX requirements
Configuration by Process
Welding fumes, fine grinding dust, and coarse abrasive particles present different challenges. Table geometry, airflow, filters, and dust collection should therefore be selected based on the actual application.
Here’s what you should keep in mind during planning
✔ Workpiece and range of motion
✔ Type of contaminant and amount of dust
✔ Required operating point
✔ Maintenance access
✔ Dust removal and emptying
✔ Potential for future expansion
FAQ
Which option is the most important?
Proper capture tailored to the emission source and an adequately sized air flow rate.
When are side walls useful?
Provided they improve airflow and do not hinder the workflow.
Can a table be extended later?
Retrofitting is possible depending on the model series and available extraction capacity.
When must ATEX be taken into account?
If the risk assessment for the dust generated or the process requires appropriate measures.
Configuring the Extraction Table Correctly
The process, workpiece size, contaminant, air flow rate, and desired equipment should be considered together.
