Fine Grinding Fiberglass Dust Collection and Filtration

When it comes to material processing, dust can be a concern not only for the comfort and safety of workers involved, but also for the integrity of the end product. Ambient dust can contaminate product supply, reduce efficiencies across processes and lessen the lifespan of critical equipment.industrial dust removal equipment

When it comes to fiberglass fine grinding, dust collection and extraction is a necessary component to any manufacturing facility—and can be one that does not have to be overwhelming or high maintenance. The ultra-fine particulates that come from fiberglass fine grinding cause problems for both workers and equipment if left unchecked.
Anyone who has insulated his or her home can understand why exposure to fiberglass needs to be limited. Respiratory concerns, as well as the irritation it can cause with contact to the skin, are just the beginning of risks that come with exposure to fiberglass dust.

With limited exposure, a worker can experience coughing, wheezing and asthma-like symptoms, and with prolonged exposure, bronchitis and even the potential for cancer. With risks like these, it is in an employer’s best interest to curb fiberglass dust accumulation. Doing so will protect workers and increase plant efficiency, since healthy workers are more productive.

Fiberglass dust also creates a fine powder which can find its way into delicate electronics or mechanics, thus compromising facility equipment and increasing maintenance costs across machinery. Equipment downtime is a manufacturer’s worst nightmare and can create compounded inefficiencies down the line.
