Enhancing Air Quality in Automobile Body Manufacturing with Customized Fume Extraction System
Enhancing Air Quality in Automobile Body Manufacturing with Customized Fume Extraction System:
Client Background:
The client is a prominent automobile body manufacturing company specializing in the automatic bolt and nut inline welding process. With 12 welding stations in operation, the client faced significant challenges due to the generation of welding fumes. These fumes not only posed health risks to workers but also hindered productivity and overall working conditions.
Problem Faced:
During the welding process, considerable amounts of fumes were generated, affecting the air quality and creating an unsafe working environment. The client's existing ventilation system was inadequate, resulting in poor fume extraction and persistent air quality issues across the 12 welding stations.
