INDUSTRIAL SUCTION SYSTEMS FOR METAL STAMPING

Making it necessary the installation of industrial aspiration systems in plants where hot or cold metal stamping is carried out is the high level of emission of harmful substances typical of these processes. Regardless of the specific type of material, in fact, stamping operations release extremely toxic particulates into the atmosphere, which represent a serious threat – if not properly captured and filtered – to the health of operators.

During metal stamping operations, both hot and cold, the emission of a large quantity of fine solid particulate matter, consisting of metallic dusts, inevitably occurs; in addition to this, the additives used in stamping emit significant volumes of oily fumes and mists. What these emissions have in common is their high degree of toxicity; prolonged and excessive inhalation, such as that to which operators in the sector are exposed, can cause serious problems to the nervous system and respiratory system, which can even result in cancer. Industrial aspiration systems must therefore provide complete and timely capture of dust and fumes, so as to remove them from the plant atmosphere before they are breathed in by the people working there.

Consulting on the design and construction of all Balducci industrial aspiration systems is completely free, from the initial site survey to the completion of the project. The industrial aspiration sector always requires taking into account conditions, application situations and particular needs that are inevitably specific and different for each client. None of our systems are standard: all are custom-made. Inevitably, for example, an industrial aspiration system must be accompanied by the necessary measures regarding abatement noises With years of experience and specialization also in this field, we are able to incorporate these solutions into each of our projects. Where necessary, the systems can be built in accordance with all ATEX regulations .

Balducci is able to offer a professional ordinary and extraordinary maintenance service for aspiration systems, both to clients where it has installed its own system and to those whose systems have been built by other companies. Regularly carrying out maintenance of industrial aspiration systems is, in fact, an operation of the utmost importance, because it implements three fundamental safeguards: that of the health of the operators working in the plant, obtained by cleaning the air of potentially toxic or harmful dusts, that of safety regarding fires and explosions, ensured by the elimination of fine dust from the internal atmosphere of the building, and that of productivity, achieved by preventing machine downtime due to material accumulation.

The main operations related to the maintenance of industrial aspiration systems can be summarized as follows:

• Accurate control of the plant's conditions and verification of component wear

• Cleaning or replacement of the installed filter elements

• Repair of any damage; if necessary, replacement of damaged components

• Verification of the functionality of the aspiration system according to the established efficiency parameters

• Check of the safety devices installed on the system

• Restoration of any compromised functionalities
