ABKAB03 double cleans better. The 2-zone extraction booth for orange terpenes from Fuchs Umwelttechnik
Silky matt, gleaming stainless steel, sturdy aluminium sections, two separate work zones behind integrated sliding glass doors and clear lighting through the glass roof – this superb special development ABKAB03 from Fuchs Umwelttechnik certainly looks impressive.
The initial situation at the customer: during the production process – work takes place in 3 shifts – the used tool parts get increasingly dirty. These must be removed and sticky adherences, e.g. resins, cleaned off as soon as it becomes necessary. Health-hazardous fumes occur in the process which can only be handled safely by effective extraction.
An ambitious project for the implementation of which a large number of specifications, parameters and special features need to be considered. Ultimately, with this new extraction booth, the engineers at Fuchs Umwelttechnik have developed a two-part work area which ensures both efficiency and safety.
Part 1, the immersion bath. Our engineers placed a cleaning bath in the floor of the booth, also made of stainless steel. Safely behind the glass doors, the contaminations are dissolved from the tool parts in an 80 °C hot bath with orange terpenes. Three screens ensure safe assembly.
And on to part 2. Remaining dirt particles are blown off in the left booth section with compressed air, protected by the front safety glass and permanently installed gloves. The integrated roof light leaves nothing in the dark.
At the same time, all fumes that occur during cleaning can be extracted permanently and completely through the suction slits in the rear wall. On both sides of the booth.
Details such as the four sockets, compressed air connections, perfect illumination or the easy operation and ergonomics are evidence that we have thought about everything for this work place.
Engineering work for an impressive result. Engineering work that singles out Fuchs Umwelttechnik and that we are more than a little proud of.
More important than ever before: Sophisticated solutions for the COLLECTION, EXTRACTION, AND FILTRATION OF AIR POLLUTANTS
The international trade fair for plastics processing, FAKUMA, is opening its gates for the 30th time from the 12th to the 16th of October 2026 in Friedrichshafen.
Plastics are a constant companion in all areas of daily life world-wide. An incredible amount in the production and processing of which various pollutants occur which must be treated accordingly and which demand a competent specialist.
This specialist, Fuchs Umwelttechnik, will this year – following their successful fair appearance at the 2024 – again be presenting sophisticated new products and efficient safety solutions for the collection and filtration of all air pollutants in plastic production and processing!
Our competent team of engineers await you at the Fuchs Umwelttechnik booth A1-1210 in Hall A1 and look forward to a constructive exchange on all questions to do with the elimination of your pollutant emissions.
In addition to a special selection from our versatile modular product portfolio, you can find out all about highly practical new developments and further highlights! Look out for a quick preview in a later newsflash.

The CCMT 2026 (Shanghai International Fair for CNC Machine Tool Components & Attachments) was held at the end of April 2026 in Shanghai, China, and is one of the world’s most important trade fairs for machine tools. Over an exhibition area with 20 halls and about 2,000 booths, the focus was on topics such as CNC technology, metal processing and intelligent production.
Fuchs Umwelttechnik were represented exclusively at the fair by their sales partner NUOSUN. Numerous professional visitors showed a strong interest in the subject of air purification and had the details of products from Fuchs Umwelttechnik explained to them on site by NUOSUN.
In addition, our partner NUOSUN made numerous contacts with Asian laser machine manufacturers. The talks provided an interesting insight into the requirements and perspectives of the Asian market which we will incorporate into our future planning.
On the whole, we can draw positive conclusions from the CCMT 2026: The visitors’ interest was great, the response positive in every respect and many valuable contacts with interesting manufacturers could be made. The fair therefore fulfilled all our expectations.
Fuchs Umwelttechnik and Pantron Automation are founding a new partnership with the Fountain Inn High School in South Carolina to support and encourage future generations of qualified skilled professionals. As a pioneer of training in progressive production and technology, the school creates close relations between industry and teaching from which all those involved gain lasting benefits.
The cooperation began at the Pantron Automation booth at the SouthTec Fair 2025, USA. From a technical exchange on the powerful, highly modern extraction technology of Fuchs Umwelttechnik, a strategic dialogue on the changing requirements of modern production and the possibilities of targeted qualification of young talent developed.
The background: This is exactly the principle that the Fountain Inn High School follows, to prepare their students for careers in progressive production, engineering and related technical fields with special programmes, says Ken Barker, specialist teacher at the educational facility. With both practical training courses and a syllabus that is also adapted to industry, the school responds appropriately to the growing demand for skilled personnel and engineering talents.
The implementation: A progressively operating educational institution and two competent international industrial partners create an effective win-win situation for all parties: the excellent preparation of skilled workers for constant innovation in industry. Together, they help young people to acquire the knowledge, the tools and the practical experience that they need for a successful career in the high-tech branch.
The success: Industry gets qualified recruits, whilst the trainees gain access to state-of-the-art technology and realistic insight into industrial processes. Fuchs Umwelttechnik, Pantron Automation and the Fountain Inn High School thereby emphasize their common commitment to innovation, quality and a strong, sustainable workforce development.
