→ Sanding aluminium
alUMINIUM
ON the RISE
Holden has confirmed that the 2013
Commodore is planned to feature aluminium
panels as Holden embarks to reduce the
weight and fuel use of the Commodore.
More and more motor vehicle manufacturers
are using aluminium in key structural
components from bonnets to boots and
underbody parts, to reduce the weight of their
vehicles. However, repairing aluminium
components releases harmful and explosive
dust into the atmosphere, therefore special
extractors, compressed air sanders and
protective clothing are prescribed by law.
Many things must be taken into consideration
when sanding aluminium, including contact
corrosion. No need to worry though: the right
system not only makes sanding safe, but also
profitable.
A separate aluminium workplace is ideal for
protecting your health and guaranteeing
outstanding results. With an integrated
Festool system, you get a flexible and
space-saving solution, perfect for satisfying
these requirements.
The purpose: health protection, accident
prevention, outstanding results and efficiency.
The solution: a compact mobile workplace with all
the relevant working equipment – flexible,
space-saving and easy to recognise.
The result: perfect surfaces in no time at all and
success for your company.
Quick and reliable
Other advantages of this workplace include the
ability to sand efficiently in only 4 steps, helping you
to produce perfect results quickly and safely. The
special extractor for Zone B22 also protects against
explosive, hazardous dust and is extremely durable.
The brushless EC-TEC drive on the special extractor
operates reliably and offers a service life ten times
longer than conventional extractor motors. It can
also operate for up to 8,000 hours without requiring
maintenance. Combined with a durable compressed
air sander, a safety set of this kind is an investment
for the future.
Efficient work: sanding in four steps with a robust
mobile workplace.
Rationalise working processes, observe safety
and manufacturer specifications and save space
with a compact mobile workplace.
Guaranteed benefits
Ideal for sanding aluminium: the safety set with
special extractor includes a Workcenter and
compressed air sander. This type of workplace is
compact, mobile and reduces changeover times.
Abrasives and machines are clearly arranged and
close at hand, saving unnecessary trips and avoiding
tedious searches. The extractor with robust black
ABS plastic container is fitted with an additional
flame protector. The black plastic distinguishes the
special extractor from other sanding stations in the
workshop, thereby preventing contact corrosion.
Secure profit: a positive assessment during the next
audit, with a workplace that is both safe and efficient in
producing quick and perfect results.
