Robotic Welding Fume Extraction Systems
Problem: Manufacturer in the metals industry needed an effective solution for fumes generated by robotic welding/automated MIG welding torches. Operators and plant employees were exposed to particulate when in the area.
Solution: Air-cooled, high volume, automatic MIG welding torches were installed to extract the fumes generated by robotic welding. Read more about how Hastings Air supports weld fume control.

Our experts can help you save money by creating a custom solution perfectly fit for your application.
Robotic Welding Fume Extraction Systems Built for Your Cell
Hastings designs and installs robotic welding fume extraction systems for automated MIG and robotic welding cells across a range of industries. Continuous duty cycles and fixed torch positions in automated welding create concentrated fume output that requires extraction equipment matched to your cell's specific configuration and production volume. We specify and install systems that capture fume directly at the torch, keeping particulate exposure below OSHA limits without disrupting your automated welding process.

Robotic Welding Ventilation Systems Engineered to Your Cell Layout
Every robotic welding cell has a different torch configuration, enclosure design and production cycle, so Hastings engineers your ventilation system around your specific setup rather than offering a generic solution. Our team evaluates your cell's torch position, access points and duty cycle before recommending equipment, working with brands including FumeVac to deliver torch-mounted extraction, hood-based capture, or a combination of both depending on what your layout requires.
Because robotic and automated welding cells run continuously with a fixed torch path, ventilation needs to be positioned to capture fume without interfering with the robot's range of motion or any part-loading access points. Our engineering team designs around those constraints from the start, rather than retrofitting a standard system into a layout it wasn't built for. Contact our team to have your cell evaluated.
Robotic Welding Ventilation Hoods Sized to Your Weld Cell
When torch-mounted extraction isn't the right fit for your cell, Hastings Air designs robotic welding ventilation hoods sized and positioned to match your cell's physical footprint. Hood placement and airflow are specified around your cell's access points, part movement and existing guarding, so extraction doesn't interfere with production.
Our robotic ventilation system equipment is built to integrate with your existing cell rather than require you to redesign around it, giving you a capture solution that fits the space you already have. Our engineering team can evaluate whether hood-based capture or torch-mounted extraction is the better fit for your specific application.
