Industrial Downdraft Table Case Studies

Chicago Pneumatic regularly attends trade shows where they exhibit their vast selection of products. Attendees are encouraged to sample various Chicago Pneumatic power tools at their showroom where many of the applications used in these demonstrations generate fugitive fumes and dust.

Air Canada, Canada's national carrier based in Montreal, asked Diversitech to find a solution to their dust problem in the landing gear maintenance area.

Diversitech installed four 2'x 4' downdraft tables with extended front overhangs (EO) so that operators could be comfortably seated at the table. Two 3'x 6' and two 3'x 8' tables were also installed.

Bombardier's Learjet repair and rework facility, located in Tuscon, Arizona, approached Diversitech for a dust control solution in their composite sanding area.

General Electric's Macallen facility overhauls Aviation engines. Some of the operations require welding, grinding, and deburring of parts. To ensure the workers well being, GE set forth requirements of a custom downdraft table.
