Bomaksan BENCH welding fume extraction system

Local exhaust ventilation (LEV) has radically evolved as increased awareness around the dangers of welding fume exposure has coincided with major technological advances.

This is exemplified by the Bomaksan BENCH (part no. BBENCH), which integrates all the benefits of mobile LEV fume extraction into a downdraft welding bench. This solution incorporates extraction into the work surface itself, so businesses can avoid going to great lengths to accommodate a fume extractor without impeding the welding process.

Welding fume is then captured at the source, which is considered the most effective way to remove hazardous particles from welding environments. To that end, the bench is equipped with two cleanable filters that combine high filtration efficiency with a large surface area, enabling longer run times between cleaning and lower ownership costs. The welder will be advised when cleaning is required via a filter clog display.

Moreover, the Bomaksan BENCH has an extremely user-friendly layout and design, featuring a fan rotation direction display, on/off switch, a working hour counter, and expandable side panels to maximise the work area if necessary. Ultimately, this system aims to serve as a natural extension of the welder’s process: designed from inception to be intuitive and impactful in equal measure.
