Welding Tables Clean Shop Air

Welding Tables Clean Shop Air Welding in enclosed shops can create smoky, unhealthy air. Traditional welding benches and work areas often worsen this problem, and installing ductwork to remove smoky air can be costly. Collector Systems Industries (CSI), an offshoot of Tigworx, has developed a downdraft welding table that purifies air for welders and surrounding workers without requiring external ductwork modifications. The CSI welding table features a self-contained system that draws in dirty air from the work surface, filters it, and releases it as clean air below. Its electric motor, equipped with a variable frequency drive (VFD), provides adjustable suction for various tasks. The built-in filter is periodically cleaned by a pulse of pressurized air from an internal tank, ensuring consistent performance and minimal maintenance. The table operates on 220 single-phase or 240/480 three-phase power, making it compatible with different shop setups. CSI’s table sizes are flexible. Standard configurations range from 4 ft. by 5 ft. to 4 ft. by 10 ft. “We’ve even built custom units up to 4 ft. by 17 ft.,” says CSI Shop Foreman Melvin King. For shops with space constraints, the welding tables can be as narrow as 40 in. “Our downdraft tables stand out for their tough, self-contained design, tailored specifically for welding with fixture availability on top or on the sides,” King says. “They’re built to last and are a smart investment in cleaner air and safer working conditions without any extra ducts.” Manufactured in Honeybrook, Pa., the tables are available nationwide, with prices starting at $12,000 for the 4-ft. by 5-ft. model.
