Glass dust: vacuuming and recovering a multifaceted product

Operator protection beyond personal safety equipment

Operator protection beyond personal safety equipment

Glass, even in its derived forms such as glass-fibre reinforced plastics, is increasingly used for its strength, impermeability and lightness. The production process, apart from the various possibilities of the final product offered by this material, involves, among other things, the use of portable tools, on which abrasive or diamond discs are mounted, which inevitably produce more or less coarse rejects, but above all very fine dust.

In this sector, operators are at real risk of inhaling the dust or absorbing it through their skin. Glass and fibreglass are dangerous not only because of the fibreglass fibres, but also because of the dust produced when cutting, finishing and trimming the material.

Personal safety equipment alone is not enough to guarantee the safety of operators. At the same time, the working environment must be equipped with a system capable of effectively vacuuming up and expelling micro-dust and production waste before it can pose a health hazard.

Sistem Air Pro offers the possibility of constructing an efficient and versatile central vacuum system capable of both protecting the health of the operators and recovering, if necessary, the waste material produced. Thanks to its versatility, we can provide for the installation of suction nozzles in strategic points for factories of all sizes.

Thanks to timely suction, atmospheric pollution and contact by operators with harmful particles produced during processing are avoided.

Furthermore, by combining the vacuum unit with a cyclonic dust separator, the central vacuum cleaner's filter is preserved, and, with the combined automatic discharge, waste material can also be recovered. A double source of savings in terms of maintenance and product recycling.
