Our Bulgarian distributor Kammarton is participating in the MachTech Expo 2024, currently taking place in Sofia, Bulgaria. At this exhibition industry leaders present cutting-edge technologies and innovations in the industrial sector. Our distributor has several booths at the exhibition, attracting significant attention from visitors and industry professionals.
The health and safety of welders are becoming an increasingly important topic in Bulgaria. With growing awareness of the health risks associated with welding fumes and poor air quality, more companies are seeking solutions to improve the work environment for their employees.
Our distributor has already welcomed a large number of customers to the booth, where they received detailed information on how to address their specific air filtration and safety needs.
AeroGuard Air Monitor On the Kammarton booth the highlight is the newly introduced AeroGuard system. The AeroGuard is designed to monitor the quality of the indoor air. It provides real-time data on air conditions, allowing businesses to take proactive steps in maintaining optimal air quality. With its easy-to-use interface and automated alerts, AeroGuard helps companies comply with safety regulations and enhance employee well-being. Its smart monitoring capabilities contribute to greater productivity by reducing potential risks associated with poor air quality.
“We are delighted to see such strong interest in AeroGuard at MachTech 2024,” said Mr. Todorov, Product Expert of Kammarton, department Welding and Cutting. “Welder health is a critical issue, and we are proud to offer solutions that help improve safety in the workplace.”
At-source extraction protects workers in the metal industry and prevents the accumulation of welding fumes, oil mist or grinding dust in the workspace. The use of flexible extraction arms is a good method of removing dangerous fumes and dust when working on small or medium sized objects. These arms can be positioned close to the work area to capture toxic fumes, dust particles and remains of molten metal at the source. Capturing fumes and dust at the source also prevents pollution from spreading over the premises, keeping not only machines and tools but also products and offices cleaner.
In previous blogs we have written about protection methods for welders, like extraction arms or hoods for local exhaust ventilation and welding helmets with PAPR units. When you provide your workers with protection equipment, you may think that you have taken the necessary steps to ensure their safety. But how can you be certain that the equipment is working as it should and your workers are not exposed to dangerous levels of carcinogenic fumes?
When metals are heated above their melting point, they vaporize and condense into welding fumes. Most people know that these welding fumes are unhealthy and dangerous. Although not everybody in the metal industry – and in other lines of work where welding is done – is fully aware of the dangers, most of them are familiar with local exhaust ventilation and personal protection equipment to minimize the health risks that are involved with welding.
