Enhancing Workplace Safety with DualDraw Downdraft Tables

A DualDraw downdraft table is a utility workstation that helps eliminate facility cross-contamination and protect operator breathing zones. 

This is accomplished by drawing down dust, smoke, and other fine particles generated from a work process. 

For added capture efficiency of dust and fumes, most of our sanding, grinding, and welding downdraft table designs incorporate the DualDraw proprietary vented back stop – a perforated vertical wall that not only physically helps enclose a particular application but also draws in the dirty air. This feature of our DualDraw downdraft tables is particularly helpful when an application requires processing work that is above the downdraft work surface, such as a large part that needs a top edge deburred.

With few exceptions, our downdraft sanding tables are modular in design and configured to specifically fit your application in size, airflow, and filtration. In particular, selecting proper air filtration for your DualDraw downdraft table is critical and that is why each filter system in our downdraft tables is selected based on what is the best to address the hazardous material(s) being generated during your application. A wide variety of air filtration options are available for our downdraft tables – pleated panel filters, activated carbon, air filter bags, HEPA, self-cleaning cartridge filters, water filtration, and others. DualDraw downdraft tables are self-contained and most often the exhaust from our tables do not require venting outdoors.

The result of the DualDraw approach to helping you select a model for your particular hazard will be a tested solution that has an immediate positive impact on your facility’s indoor air quality condition and your personnel’s well-being.
