Small downdraft table:
Overview:
Small downdraft tables are commonly used in industries such as electronics manufacturing, jewelry making, woodworking, and small-scale metalworking. They help maintain a cleaner and safer work environment by effectively capturing and controlling airborne contaminants at their source. These tables are especially useful in environments where larger and more elaborate dust collection systems may not be practical due to space constraints or specific localized extraction needs.
Product Description
Description:
A small downdraft table is a compact and specialized piece of equipment designed to capture and control dust, fumes, and other airborne particles generated during specific processes or tasks. Unlike larger, more versatile downdraft tables used in industrial settings, small downdraft tables are typically used in smaller workspaces, workshops, or laboratories where space is limited, and where specific localized source capture of contaminants is needed.
Here are some key features and considerations related to small downdraft tables:
Compact Size: Small downdraft tables are designed to be space-efficient and have a smaller footprint compared to their larger counterparts. This makes them suitable for use in confined areas.
Localized Extraction: These tables are often used to capture contaminants directly at the source, providing a cleaner and safer workspace for the operator. They are commonly used for tasks like soldering, hand sanding, grinding, and other processes that generate dust or fumes.
Downdraft System: Small downdraft tables incorporate a downdraft ventilation system that creates a downward airflow through the table’s surface. This airflow helps to pull contaminants away from the operator and into the table.
Filtration: Like larger downdraft tables, small ones also include filtration systems to trap and remove airborne contaminants. The type of filter used depends on the specific application and the nature of the particles being generated.
Tabletop Surface: The top surface of a small downdraft table may be slotted, perforated, or equipped with a grid to allow for the passage of air and efficient capture of contaminants.
Mobility: Some small downdraft tables are designed to be portable or have casters, making them easy to move to different locations within a workspace.
Adjustable Airflow: Depending on the model, small downdraft tables may have adjustable airflow controls to regulate the suction force and ensure effective capture of contaminants.
Noise Control: Noise reduction features may be incorporated into the design to minimize the sound generated by the downdraft system.
Accessories: Depending on the application, small downdraft tables may come with accessories such as work piece clamps, adjustable work surface angles, or integrated lighting.
