Picture of machine attached, and a link to a video of this machine cutting. This Hybrid design is nice for lower duty cycle applications and hobbyist use. I ran this machine for 4 days at the recent Sema show in Vegas with no smoke.while all of the other machines at the show were either billowing smoke (one was shut down by the fire inspector) or splashing water all over the place. It has a hybrid system that first uses a water tray that is strategically placed about 8" below the cutting surface, this traps the 60 to 80% of larger particles (without allowing water to affect cut quality or splash on he plate and moving parts of the machine), then a side draft created by a 1250 cfm fan pulls the remaining fine particles through two Torit brand welding fume filters (they are cleanable with a vacuum and an air hose), trapping the rest of the smoke. You could almost run it in your living room. It has not external pipes and produces no smoke.
#HOOKING EXHAUST FAN UP TO DYNATORCH PLASMA TABLE PORTABLE#
My small 2 x 2 table was designed for portable use at trade shows. I suppose if you were cutting 3 shifts a day with a 400 amp plasma then this story would be different. They spread a ways.but there is no noticeable coating of dust anywhere outside the shop on the fan side. On cool days they rise (as smoke) for 3 or so feet and then drop as they cool. The effluent from cutting is mostly (between 60 and 80%) heavy particles that simply fall to the floor under the enclosed base of my machine, the small particles that are lighter than air get pulled into the duct by the fan.and they blow outside. This has been running this way for 7 years.the grass is still growing fine, there is no mess on the side of my shop, and the horses have no problems in the paddock right outside the shop. I built a plenum on the inside of the fan and run 3 8" diameter pipes from under my cnc table. My 4x4 table that has been in my home shop is ducted outside using a 36" 3200 cfm louvered restaurant fan.
