Safe dust extraction in wood processing

Filtration solutions for the extraction of wood dust, chips and fibres from sawing, milling, sanding and planing operations

The mechanical processing of wood and wood-based materials produces large quantities of chips, fibres and fine wood dust - especially when sawing, milling, planing and sanding. These dusts are not only considered harmful to health and potentially explosive, but also impair machine functions, product quality and tidiness in the workplace.

Our filtration systems are specially designed for the requirements of wood processing. They reduce the amount of dust in the entire work area and ensure reliable separation - both in continuous operation of large systems and in flexible manual workstations.

Whether central extraction systems with automatic cleaning or compact filter systems for individual machines: our solutions fulfil the requirements of the trade associations and ATEX directives and make a decisive contribution to occupational safety, fire protection and process quality.

We filter

Typical areas of application in wood processing

Sawing stations (circular, band and cross-cut saws):
Detection of coarse chips and fine wood dust directly at the interface.

Milling centres and CNC processing machines:
Selective extraction for complex machining processes with high chip removal

Planers and thicknessers:
Extraction of large quantities of chips with simultaneous smoothing and shaping

Grinders:
Fine dust separation for dry surface treatment

Briquetting systems and chip pressing:
Dust extraction when compacting wood waste

Centralised extraction systems for joineries and woodworking companies:
Energy-efficient capture and filtration of large volumes of air with dust and chip mix
