Published on 18 March 2025

Welding fumes are a major challenge in manufacturing, impacting worker health and air quality. With tightening safety regulations, effective fume extraction isn’t optional—it’s essential.

The Translas 10XR Robotic 500 MIG Fume Extraction Gun captures fumes directly at the source, eliminating up to 98% of welding fumes and seamlessly integrating with robotic welding systems. Autoa offers this advanced solution to help manufacturers maintain a safer, cleaner workplace without compromising welding performance.

Why does Welding Fume Extraction Matter?

Welding fumes contain hazardous metals such as aluminum, arsenic, lead, and manganese, as well as gases like carbon monoxide and hydrogen fluoride. Short-term exposure can cause nausea and dizziness, while long-term exposure is linked to lung disease, cancer, and nervous system damage.

A high-performance extraction system like the 10XR protects operators, ensures compliance and improves air quality.

How does the Translas 10XR Fume Extraction Gun Work?

Unlike traditional extraction systems that rely on overhead hoods, the Translas 10XR Robotic 500 Mig Fume Extraction Gun captures fumes directly from the welding arc, using high-vacuum technology. This prevents fumes from dispersing into the workshop, safeguarding both operators and surrounding workers.

Benefits of the Translas 10XR Fume Extraction Gun:

  • Removes 98% of welding fumes at the source for cleaner air.
  • Improves workplace safety by reducing airborne contaminants.
  • Eliminates bulky extraction hoods, lowering setup costs.
  • Water-cooled design enhances durability and consumable life.
  • Seamless robotic integration for maximum precision and efficiency.
