Welding fumes must be optimally captured to protect employees.
Welding and soldering discharges dust and fumes which even the most advanced production technologies cannot prevent. Collection, extraction and separation is generally required for manufacturing, product-specific, labor and environmental protection reasons.
The handling of welding fumes is frequently made more problematic by the fact that they may represent a health hazard, be toxic or even carcinogenic. When welding stainless steel (CrNi-steel) in particular, individual laws must be observed regarding clean air recirculation.
Gaseous matter might be adhesive or odorous during soldering processes.
