Abicor Binzel has introduced turnkey systems for welding fume extraction in automated and manual applications.

The xFUME Advanced is a portable fume extraction vacuum system that supports up to two manual welding stations. Its two filters capture 99.5% of all dust greater than 0.1 µm and have an automatic cleaning function. It can be paired with the company’s xFUME fume extraction GMAW torch for optimal fume capture efficiency and increased welder comfort, says the company.

For manual welding operations that require a high volume of fume extraction welding stations, the company offers the IndustriFume, which features a 28-HP motor and supports up to six manual welding stations per unit. If capturing welding fumes at the arc is not an option, the xFUME Flex portable fume extraction arm can prevent fumes from spreading outside of the welding station.

For capturing fumes at the source in robotic applications, the company has developed the xFUME Robo. Using a fume collector body that fits onto the company’s robotic torches, this unit can capture more than 95% of weld fumes.
