DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF UNIT MODULAR DUST COLLECTOR

Abstract

The trend among mechanical industries to develop selective granular solid of high potential has pushed the
industry to consider the potential of each hazardous ingredient to become airborne. Dustiness issues are not unique to the
mechanical industry, but are relevant to any industry where powdered materials are mixed, transferred and handled. Interest
in dustiness is also driven by concerns for workers health, the potential for plant explosions and the prevention of product
loss. Unlike other industries, the mechanical industry is limited by the milligram quantity of solid material available for
testing during product development. A dust collector is a system used to enhance the quality of air released from industrial
and commercial processes by collecting dust and other impurities from air or gas. Designed to handle high-volume dust
loads, a dust collector system consists of a blower, dust filter, a filter-cleaning system, and a dust receptacle or dust removal
system. It is distinguished from air purifiers, which use disposable filters to remove dust. In this project we are going to
design UNIT MODULAR DUST COLLECTOR, also called as bag filter. We need to sketch 2D Design from AUTOCAD.
Then 2D is converted to 3D in CATIA. In general, the finer the particles that have to be collected, the higher will be the cost
of a suitable separation system.
