LASYS Fair in Stuttgart from the 24th to the 26th of June 2014
Professional fair for system solutions in laser material processing
Fuchs Umwelttechnik presented itself at this leading inter-branch fair for high quality laser systems and accessory components again as they did two years ago.
In addition to the extraction and filtering systems for different laser emissions proven many times over and in use world-wide, Fuchs Umwelttechnik presented not only new generations in the compact equipment sector but also innovative new developments.
Our booth at LASYS in Stuttgart
Model type IF
One of these is the revised model type IF. This features large filter areas with an extremely compact design, different volume flows as well as numerous filter equipment versions can be used. Flow optimised air guidance ensures high efficiency.

Pre-separator VA2PF01
The new development of the compact pre-separator VA2PF01 for filtering of dust emissions was also exhibited. The special features of this are the automatic cleaning function and the contamination-free dust removal in PE bags. This progress allows larger quantities of emissions to be handled easily and safely. The device can be connected to an existing extraction and filtering unit.

Modular laser protection booth type LKS
Another innovation is our modular laser protection booth type LKS with certification as per DIN EN 60825-4. It serves to screen useful radiation as well as reflecting or scattered laser radiation. By optimum utilisation of flow technology, the air pollutants are collected very effectively and extracted from the booth.

New extraction and filtering concept
A new extraction and filtering concept which was developed in motor sport was also on show. It is a mobile and independent (grinding) workstation. An extraction and filtering unit of the TKFD series as well as a coarse pre-separator TKFRVAG ensure separation and removal of the coarse and fine particles. The two integrated drawers provide room for all components and accessories that are relevant for extraction and filtering. The case also contains a collapsible work table.

Extraction and filtering unit MKFVA320
In our proven MKFVA320 and MKFVA450 extraction and filtering unit, the handling of the dust disposal and the filter replacement especially has been considerably improved. The contamination-free removal of dust by PE bags is standard here. The lid module can now be lifted up with gas spring support.

A special occasion this year was the visit by the State Secretary in the Ministry of Finance and Economy in Baden-Württemberg. Ingo Rust is himself a graduate in Mechanical Engineering and was impressed by the technical versatility and strength of innovation of Fuchs Umwelttechnik.
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.
Fuchs Umwelttechnik is further expanding its presence in Asia: With immediate effect, the company DBAY/NUOSUN, Shanghai is exclusively taking over sales of the complete product portfolio of extraction and filtering units from Fuchs Umwelttechnik in the Asian area.
Based on the now three-year cooperation between Fuchs Umwelttechnik and DBAY/NUOSUN, this sales partnership is uniting technical know-how with direct proximity to the market. Our customers in Asia will benefit, in future, from a direct local contact who can react expediently to all matters with well-founded consultation and fast, top-class service.
DBAY/NUOSUN stands for quality, reliability and technical expertise – ideal conditions for optimum representation of the advantages and performance capabilities of our extraction and filtering units on the Asian market. As of 01-03-2026, your inquiries and orders can be handled directly through DBAY/NUOSUN SHANGHAI.
We look forward to a continuing successful partnership and are certain that this cooperation will help to simplify processes and further optimise important procedures. DBAY/NUOSUN and Fuchs Umwelttechnik – as strong partners for the future!
The conversion unit was developed at the request of a customer who is already equipped with numerous TKFVA devices. For their sensor production, they required additional safety measures against the reactive dusts of CrNi steels and titanium. Since the INRVABE3.1 powdering module is designed exclusively for the higher emission quantities of the MKFVA and INRV device types, the consequence would be an expensive total replacement of the extraction and filtering units. Economically, this is no option and not at all what we have in mind.
To meet our customers' requirements, our engineers therefore designed the TKFVAÜG6 conversion unit especially for the appropriate performance data of the most compact device series with automatic filter cleaning TKFVA. With this, the INRVABE3.1 powdering module can now also be used for smaller emission quantities.
Sophisticated in every detail:
- Constant discharge through a chute into a 20-litre barrel by optimum positioning to the TKFVA, even during operation
- The powdering has been parametrised exactly for the smaller emission quantities
- A pinch valve is no longer required for the activation
- PE-film in the barrel for contamination-free disposal
- Barrel emptying by a quick clamp offline
With the new TKFVAÜG6 conversion unit, our customers now have a complete safety solution especially for smaller emission quantities at their disposal which can easily be integrated into existing systems.
