Self-contained blowdown station
13 October 2019
Available from AirBench, the new BD1000 is a self-contained blowdown station for the removal of coolant and swarf from machined parts.

An operator simply places parts in the cabinet, lowers the screen, and uses the integral blow gun to clean parts using factory compressed air. An integral venturi system assists with capture of coolant, and the filter system in the base of the unit is replaced easily when full.
The new 1000mm wide BD1000 joins the 500mm wide BD500 and is designed for longer components. Both models run solely from factory air supplies, with no requirement for electrical connections – making them suitable for siting next to machine tools for regular operator use.
Maintenance is minimal with only occasional filter pad changes required. Contact AirBench to arrange a trial or visit: www.airbench.com/bd.
