STANDARD WELD CELL AIR FILTRATION
Something in the Air: Robotic integrators have collaborated on one air filtration system for a variety of standard welding cells. Check this out.

Great Lakes Air Systems, Inc. (Clawson, MI) has been working very closely over the last few years with a few of the larger integrators to standardize on air filtration systems for specific welding cells. Some of the robotic integrators have streamlined this collaboration to the point that their engineers and sales staff have developed programs that match a RoboVent system with each of their standard cells.
Some have also put together computer programs to help customize an air filtration system based on the criteria of the custom robotic system they are designing. For example, they can enter quantity of welders per cell, size of cell, production time, etc and the system will tell them what air filtration they need.
The RoboVent system comes in two designs: the FloorSaver and the FlexMount. The FloorSaver mounts on top of the robot cell and is a patented design. The FlexMount may be mounted anywhere, and can also be used to duct to multiple robot cells.
RoboVent systems are manufactured by Great Lakes Air Technologies, Inc., 1238 Anderson Court, Clawson, MI 48017, 248 655-1800,www.robovent.com.
