ULT AG to Launch Fume Extraction Concept at SMT Hybrid Packaging 2018
March 22, 2018 | ULT AGEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
At the SMT Hybrid Packaging trade show in Nuremberg fume extraction vendor ULT AG will introduce a worldwide unique system concept. The ULT 200 unit series was not only renewed conceptionally and technically but will be providing users unrivalled benefits.
The ULT 200 systems help to remove soldering fume (LRA series), dust and smoke (ASD series) as well as odors, gases and vapors (ACD series). The modularly designed units can be equipped with additional filter modules, e.g. for higher amounts of air pollutants or with activate carbon. Furthermore, a variable number of capturing elements such as extraction arms, tubes or hoses can be installed per unit.Utilizing latest electronics that enables an automatic vacuum stabilization and selectable pressure range, ideal extraction performance is guaranteed also for several workplaces. Hence, the units are capable of maintaining the required performance level even if there are several capturing elements attached to the system.
However, the overall system concept with a wide range of accessories provides the greatest added value. It includes a food switch, suction hoses, Y-tube pieces, sleeves, reductions and a bracket for extraction arm installations.The well-thought accessory range has been specifically designed for the ULT 200 system series, helping to reveal the systems‘ full economic and applicational benefits.
Visitors to ULT’s trade show stand may get first-hand information on the new system range’s high flexibility and variability, receiving concrete conclusions on potential applications as well as purchasing and maintenance cost savings.
ULT’s fume extraction systems provide for clean air in production processes. They sustainably protect employees, manufacturing plants and products from hazardous airborne contaminants occurring during the utilization of laser systems, soldering equipment as well as gluing, laminating and coating technologies. The ULT 200 extraction systems are designed for medium quantities of pollutants; provide long filter life times, easy-to-handle and low-noise operation.
