Dust beater July 1st 2008 Wavin, manufacturer of plastic
pipe and ducting, has installed a
safe, efficient method for
personnel de-dusting at its factory
in Durham.
According to George
Hutchinson, production manager,
the dustiest area is the mixing
department where plastics
granules/grains, fillers (chalk) and
stabilisers are combined.
A blower powered 'JetBlack'
from Air Control Industries was
installed to de-dust personnel as
they move around the plant and
prior to going home. It was taken
on a week's trial and proved so
successful that the company
installed three more.
Hutchinson says that the
JetBlack is both efficient and safe
and that staff like it because it is
easy to use and effective. More articles from Air Control Industries Ltd: |
