Welding Fume Extractor, Portable welding Extractors for Fumes
Welding is a fabrication or a sculptural process for joining two materials.
Welding process is carried out
by melting the work pieces and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material which after
cooling becomes a strong joint.
The filler, the base metal, the base metal coating used during welding
and the subsequent gases that are formed during the welding process release small and solid particles in
the air which forms a plum.
This plum is called as welding fumes.
Fumes are produced in all welding
processes, but maximum fumes are produced in arc welding process.
Exposure to the welding fumes can cause various health problems.
When these fumes are inhaled, they
enter into the blood, brain nerve cells, spinal cord and other organs.
This causes short term and long
term health effects.
The short term effects include metal fume fever, irritation of eyes, coughing,
wheezing, shortness of breath, bronchitis, p
