Richard Heard, Technical Sales Manager at BOFA, discusses the increasingly important role of data as industry ups its investment in automation. He also talks about the contribution that digital innovation in industrial fume and dust extraction can make to laser sector productivity.

The AD PVC iQ extraction system has been designed to help deal with the corrosive nature of the fumes generated when lasering PVC materials.

The latest design specification now covers many of the features associated with our “best in class” AD Oracle iQ model as standard but in addition, all internally exposed surfaces have been coated to resist the corrosive nature of the fume and each unit is fitted with HCI and VOC sensors which continually monitor the exhaust air of the unit.

The AD Oracle SA iQ has been enhanced with BOFA’s Intelligent Operating System (iQ), RFA and ACF technology. It uses a smaller pre-filter to the AD Oracle iQ making it ideal for lighter-use applications.

The compact ‘go anywhere’ fume extraction system is feature-packed for big performance in small-scale industrial sites and light laser coding applications.

Incorporating many of the features found on our larger systems, the AD Nano+ is a cost-effective solution for light to medium-duty applications, making it the ideal choice for installations where floor space is limited. Using an auto-voltage sensing blower means the unit can be used anywhere in the world.

BOFA’s AD 1000 iQ high-end laser extraction system combines extremely large filter capacity with high airflow and pressure rates, making it the ideal choice for heavy-duty applications that generate large amounts of particulate and gaseous organic compounds.
