AWS On-Gun welding fume extraction guns

Tuesday, 22 March, 2022 | Supplied by: AWS Pty Ltd


AWS has teamed up with Translas, a Dutch on-gun fume extraction specialist, to launch a range of lightweight, manoeuvrable and ergonomic extraction guns. According to the company, the guns deliver a 98% capture rate, while leaving the shielding gas completely unaffected, with a 100% duty cycle. On-gun fume extraction is a safe and effective method of controlling welding fume. On-gun fume extraction captures welding fume at the source, removes it from the environment and follows the welder as they move.

Translas On-Gun fume extraction leaves the shielding gas completely unaffected and is lighter than many standard welding guns. The welding gun is also low-maintenance, as it is self-cleaning, and is a potential option for confined spaces. Confined spaces can be deadly and decisions on how to handle a specific confined space must be assessed on the spot, considering the specifics of the individual situation. There should be a suitably trained and knowledgeable person carrying out the assessment and design of a safe system for any confined space entry.
