METALWORKING SOLUTIONS
Stop chasing chips with air-guns and shop-vacs. Depureco USA’s industrial vacuums recover coolant, collect razor-sharp swarf, and capture welding fumes at the source—all while meeting NFPA 652/484 and ATEX Zone 22 safety standards.
Clean a 500 L CNC sump in under 10 minutes, reclaim up to 95 % cutting fluid, and keep floors OSHA-compliant.
The metalworking industry plays a critical role in the manufacturing sector, encompassing various processes such as cutting, grinding, welding, and polishing. These operations generate a perfect storm of hazards—razor-sharp metal chips, coolant-soaked swarf, combustible dust and sub-micron welding fumes. Left to brooms, compressed-air blow-offs or consumer shop-vacs, these by-products slash spindle uptime, violate safety codes and cost real money.
Recover Coolant, Boost Profit
Flow-inversion sump vacuums reclaim up to 95 % of cutting fluid, turning a 500-litre tank clean-out into a <10-minute job. Less fluid purchase, less hazardous-waste disposal—fast ROI.
Stop Chip Bird-Nesting & Hose Clogging
50 mm / 70 mm antistatic hoses plus tangential cyclones swallow long stringers, steel shot and blast-media grit without downtime-killing blockages.
Meet OSHA & NFPA Housekeeping Rules
Side-channel blowers run 24/7 at 72 dB while grounded hoses and ATEX Zone 22 options keep you compliant with OSHA 1910.22, NFPA 652 and NFPA 484 for reactive alloys.
4. Protect Workers & Machine Ways
Vacuums remove coolant-slick chips—no slip hazards, no abrasive debris embedded in guideways. HEPA cartridges capture welding fumes at 350 fpm right at the torch, guarding lungs and laser optics alike.
5. Scale to Any Task
• Sump & chip vacuums for CNC maintenance
• High-lift swarf extractors for vertical runs and blast rooms
• Immersion-separator vacuums for magnesium or titanium dust
• Central power units for multi-operator pipe networks
• Drum-top & cyclone separators that snap onto 30/55-gal barrels
6. Quick-Change Filter Hygiene
JetClean® reverse-pulse cartridges clear in 10 seconds—no messy filter swaps, zero performance drop‐off.

Keeping your spindles cutting and welders running hinges on one thing: fast, mess-free housekeeping. Depureco USA industrial vacuums turn what used to be downtime into production time.
When a sump vacuum with flow-inversion can reclaim 95 % of cutting fluid and empty a 500-litre tank in under 10 minutes, operators get back to cycle start instead of scooping sludge. High-lift swarf extractors fitted with 50 mm antistatic hoses swallow long curls, blast-media grit, and coolant-soaked chips without the clogs that sideline shop-vacs. Side-channel blowers rated for 24 / 7 duty at 72 dB(A) mean maintenance happens between programs—no waiting for motors to cool or filters to be swapped.
The payoff is tangible: More chips in the scrap bin, more coolant in the sump, cleaner guideways, OSHA-compliant floors, and a green light on your OEE dashboard. In short, industrial vacuums turn housekeeping into profit-keeping.
Recover coolant, separate chips, and restart the spindle in minutes.
Machining sumps brim with coolant-soaked chips, tramp-oil, and anaerobic sludge that can shut a CNC down for 30–45 minutes every time they’re cleaned by hand. Depureco USA sump vacuums flip that script:
Flow-Inversion Technology – Switch from suction to pressure and return filtered coolant to the machine—up to 120 GPM (2 gal s⁻¹).
150 µm Stainless Basket – Segregates ferrous & non-ferrous chips for scrap resale while protecting pumps from fines.
Auto Float-Switch Shut-off – Prevents over-fill and slippery floor spills.
IP55 Motors / Side-Channel Blowers – run 24 / 7 at a quiet 72 dB(A).
Clog-proof extraction of long curls, grit, and foundry sand—24 / 7.
Sharp, stringy swarf and abrasive media make quick work of consumer shop-vacs: hoses bird-nest, filters blind, and motors burn out. Depureco’s heavy-chip vacuums pair high-lift side-channel blowers with large-bore antistatic hoses so chips flow—not jam.
50 mm / 70 mm Tangential Inlets – prevents bird-nesting on 10 mm curls.
High-Vacuum Drive – up to 440 mbar lifts steel shot 10 m vertically.
38 000 cm² Star or Cartridge Filters – optional JetClean® pulse keeps airflow steady.
Continuous-Duty Blowers – 20 000-hour MTBF, 72–76 dB(A).
Cyclonic & Tilting Pre-Separators – scale capacity to 580 L, protect filters on heavy loads.
Grounded Accessories – NFPA 652 housekeeping compliance for combustible dust.
Capture hazardous fumes at the arc or plasma tip—before they reach breathing zones.
350 fpm face velocity at the hood or torch—meets AWS & ACGIH recommendations.
JetClean® pulse cleaning keeps PTFE cartridges at peak airflow; no costly filter swaps mid-shift.
99.97 % HEPA option for hex-chrome and stainless fume.
Grounded, antistatic construction for NFPA 660 (ex-484) metal-dust compliance.
Low-noise side-channel blowers (≤ 72 dB) protect hearing in tight welding booths.
VOC cartridge pack available for small paint-repair cells.
Explosion-proof housekeeping for aluminum, magnesium, titanium and fine steel dust.
Metal dust smaller than 420 µm can ignite with the force of dynamite; magnesium and titanium shavings burn white-hot in seconds. Depureco’s combustible-dust vacuums let you clean reactive alloys without creating the ignition source you’re trying to remove.
NFPA & ATEX Ready – Certified for NFPA 652 general combustible dust and NFPA 484 Group E metals; ATEX Zone 22 rating on BL Pro series.
All-Conductive Path – Stainless or AISI 304 tank, conductive PTFE cartridge, grounded hoses (IEC 61340) route static safely to earth.
Brushless Side-Channel Blower – No sparks, carbon brushes or belts; 20 000 h duty cycle.
JetClean® or Immersion Bath – Choose pulse-jet cleaning (BL Pro) or liquid inerting (BL AM) that renders reactive dust harmless on contact.
H₂ Vent & Over-Pressure Valve – Discharges hydrogen gas from the immersion tank to maintain safe pressure.
One power unit, a web of drops—clean every work bay without moving a machine.
Large machining halls and fabrication plants don’t need a separate vacuum in every aisle; a centralised shop system delivers high-vacuum power through fixed stainless pipework to 5, 10 or even 20 operators at once.
Zero Footprint at the Machine – no tanks or motors blocking aisles; just a 50-mm quick-couple hose.
24 / 7 Side-Channel Blowers – oil-free turbines rated 20 000-h MTBF; run through three shifts without cooldown.
Break-Away Mobility – wheel the CVS skid to another cell during shutdowns or maintenance, then re-dock to the header.
Automatic Pulse-Jet Cleaning – cartridges purge on a timer; no operator intervention, no airflow drop.
Scalable Pipework – 3- or 4-inch main header branches down to 50- or 70-mm drops; design assistance and CAD layout in 48 h.
Compliance: NFPA 652 housekeeping, OSHA 1910.22 floors, optional ATEX Zone 22 design for aluminum/titanium dust.
Multi-machine CNC lines—instant chip pick-up at every cell
Foundry or shot-blast halls—one hose cleans 30 m radius
Laser-cutting centres—dock a downdraft table or fume hood
Mixing liquid & dry material—wet-and-dry separators inline
