Why is the effect of fume control in welding workshop poor? The reason is here!

In recent years, with the implementation of EIA measures, more and more factories are equipped with welding fume extractors, but some of the treatment effects are not satisfactory, and even can not guarantee a smooth EIA inspection!

Today, we will answer the question of "why is the fume extraction effect of your welding workshop poor and the use time of extraction equipment is short" from the perspective of senior industrial environmental protection professionals. It is better for bosses who are troubled by this aspect to read it!

1. The quality of the welding fume extractor is not good enough.

At present, there are too many welding fume extractors on the market, with various brands, manufacturers, types, etc., it is difficult to pick and choose. Some factories which are not familiar with this market will make mistakes if they are not careful when purchasing welding fume extractors. Some factories also buy low-priced and unsecured welding fume extractors brands to save money. The filtration effect and service life of the welding fume extractors purchased in this way are naturally not ideal, and it will not take a long time that the equipment only can be reduced to a workshop decoration.

Therefore, when purchasing, you must look for the brand that has the environmental protection product certification of the China Environmental Protection Association and can show the corresponding certification report, so it is relatively easy to not make mistakes!

2. The installation and maintenance of the welding fume extractor is not in place.

Although the welding fume extractors are becoming more and more automatic, the installation and maintenance of the equipment will still affect the fume extraction effect in the later period. Some manufacturers do not have a mature and standard service system, and they cannot provide professional guidance during installation and post-maintenance, which will lead to problems in the installation and maintenance of the equipments, resulting in the extractor not only failing to improve the workshop environment, but also affecting the environment, even the productivity of frontline workers.

Therefore, when purchasing, you must look for manufacturers with a complete after-sales guarantee system, so that not only they can provide professional guidance during installation, but also can solve problems in time if there are problems later!

3. Wrong selection of welding fume extractor.

There are too many welding fume extractors of various types on the market. Many factories blindly follow the trend without knowing clearly when purchasing. As a result, the models of welding fume extractors are not suitable for workshop conditions, so the fume extraction effect will be poor, and many other issues.

In general, we recommend the following options:

(1) When welding small workpieces, fixed-point welding, and working conditions with less fume and dust, it is recommended to use a mobile fume extractor;

(2) In the case of welding large-scale, special-shaped, multiple people welding at the same time and requiring crane transportation frequently, it is recommended to use a self-circulating fume extraction tower;

(3) If the welding station is fixed and there are many welding stations and a large amount of fume and dust, it is more recommended to use a centralized fume and dust filtration system.

In short, most of the reasons for the poor fume extraction effect in the welding workshop and the short use time of the welding fume extractor are from the above-mentioned situations. Therefore, if the bosses want to pass the EIA steadily, completely improve the fume and dust problem in the welding workshop, and effectively improve the work efficiency of workers, they need to seriously check their own factories’ situation!
