Downdraft tables are the preferred solution for collecting 3D printing dust, since the ventilated work surface captures particles at source dust without operator intervention. Plastic 3D printing dust can be easily captured and collected using a cartridge style portable downdraft table.
When 3D printing on metals like aluminum, titanium and magnesium, a wet downdraft table is required to protect against fire or explosion.
Our Downdraft tables and booths offer many innovative options that improve performance, depending on your application. Factors to consider are:
If the operator will be seated during use, consider our extended overhang configuration. “EO” models extend the front table lip to 12″, creating a more comfortable and ergonomic workspace when seated.
“Diversitech was very helpful in providing useful information to solve our particular Dust Collection problem.
Our users have all had good things to say about the product and working with Ron Morris was a pleasure.
He provided all the support we needed in getting our system up and running.
I would recommend Diversitech to anyone that needed a similar product.
It is very well made and easy to use and maintain.”
« As a repeat customer, and owner of both wet and dry downdraft tables, we cannot say enough about the products, and the people at Diversitech…….both are a pleasure to work with! »
« The tables are now fully functioning! The students were on them yesterday, and the instructors were so impressed. One instructor even said that he’s “old school” and wasn’t sure about the downdrafts, but he was very impressed. »
« We love the downdraft table and are using it full time. We will probably be looking for another one in 6 months to a year as well. Thanks for a nice product. »
