Aerospace & Defense Manufacturing Air Filtration

Every Process Adds a Different Contaminant

Aerospace and defense manufacturing covers a wide range of processes, and each one puts something different into the air.

Cutting and machining titanium, aluminum, and other aerospace metals throws off fine metal dust, some of it combustible. Composite work, like carbon fiber fabrication, releases lightweight fibrous dust that can travel through a facility if it isn't captured at the source. Welding on aircraft structures gives off metal fumes that need to be controlled quickly, since they can contain hazardous compounds depending on the base metal. And paint booths and surface finishing add solvent fumes and fine overspray on top of everything else.

When Your Shop Floor Needs Source Capture

• Fine metal or composite dust is visible on surfaces near machining areas

• Welding areas don't have dedicated fume capture

• Your facility works with titanium, aluminum, or magnesium

• Paint booth exhaust hasn't been tested recently

• You're adding a new machining, welding, or composite finishing line

• Combustible dust hasn't been assessed for your metal processes

Filtration Matched to the Process, Not Just the Building

Electrocorp builds systems around what your specific process puts into the air, since a filter sized for general dust won't handle fine composite fiber or combustible metal dust the same way. HEPA level filtration captures fine metal and composite particulate, while carbon stages handle solvent fumes and VOCs from paint and finishing work. Systems can be set up at machining stations, weld areas, or paint booths depending on where your risk is highest.
