Aget Manufacturing Co. (www.agetmfg.com) developed a dual-stage air purifying workstation that eliminates particulates and other contaminates from the surrounding area. The workstation consists of a conventional downdraft table and a backdraft booth. The system features a two-duct exhaust booth and two collection hoppers on the lower table section. The company says coarse particles typically settle downward and are removed by the downdraft action, while ultra-fine particulates become and stay airborne and are captured by the slotted hood within the booth. The company has engineered several models for different applications.
