Protect Personnel and the Environment with Air Science Products

The benefits of 3D printing technology are numerous. Faster production, ease of accessibility and cost-effectiveness are just a few of the perks.

 

But this always advancing technology doesn’t come without risks. The printing process can emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and fine to ultra-fine particles in the air. It has been discovered that these compounds and particles may be toxic and can cause issues like irritation of the eyes, nose and throat, headaches and loss or coordination. Sometimes, when used over time, it can cause more serious conditions including pulmonary inflammation, leukemia and lymphoma.

 

Air Science® products provide solutions that make 3D printers safer for those that use them. Our ductless fume hoods, custom enclosures and air filtration products can trap emissions and isolate vapors. Construction, filtration, controls and airflow options can be customized to accommodate 3D printer systems – large, small or in-between.
