Application:
Automated Laser Marking Machine and a Color Coding Operation

Customer:
Guhring, Inc.

Based in Brookfield, Wisconsin, Guhring, Inc. is a leading maufacturer of high quality, advanced design cutting tools.

Having spent tens of thousands of dollars over the years for large dust collectors and air cleaning systems, Guhring’s Plant/Facility Engineering Director, Fred Langer, was frustrated when trying to find more economoical sytems which still offered high quality solutions for smaller applications.

Air Impurities Removal (A.I.R.) Systems, Inc., offered its economical Extract-All™ Model S-987-2A Compact Air Cleaning System to handle two of Guhring’s odor producing operations.

Guhring had both a fully enclosed, automated laser marking machine and a color coding operation, both of which produced gaseous fumes. A.I.R. Systems set-up its system on a portable caster base, with two inlets. The first inlet connected to the exhaust port of the laser marking machine. A self-supporting extractor arm was attached to the second inlet, so that the inlet nozzle could be postioned properly to draw in the fumes from the color coding operation.

Now, in full operation, Guhring is very satisfied with the Extract-All™ Systems’s performance, including its compact design, good suction,high level of filtration, and low maintenance requirements.
