Aviation

Defense and aviation have been striving for a dust-free and chromium-6-free work environment for years to protect employee health. Partly driven by societal debate, there is also a need to further reduce emission levels. Ever thought about a dust extraction system from Kiekens? With over 100 years of knowledge, expertise, and experience, we are a knowledge leader in industrial dust extraction technology.
Want to get a grip on your safety?

Tailored to every aircraft manufacturer

In the aviation industry, dust extraction is not a luxury, but a necessity. This is because metal chips and harmful substances, such as chromium 6, endanger both product quality and workers' safety. Strict regulations and audits therefore force quality managers to minimize risks and ensure a healthy work environment — preferably without sacrificing production efficiency.

With smart, seamlessly integrated dust extraction, Kiekens provides scalable systems for a comprehensive approach to all these themes. One comprehensive, central solution, including high and low vacuum technology, pipe networks and dust contacts. With a free baseline measurement, customized advice and 24/7 service, we also offer you — in addition to guaranteeing a clean, safe working environment — the assurance of maximum compliance with laws and regulations.

Our solution
Exposure to chromium-6 and other hazardous substances during maintenance
ATEX-certified HEPA filter systems effectively capture chromium-6 and other harmful particles, significantly reducing staff exposure to them.
Accumulation of oily dust, carbon fibres and metal particles in production environments
Our high-vacuum dust extraction systems are specifically designed to efficiently extract these specific particles, resulting in a cleaner and safer working environment.
Compliance with strict aviation and safety standards (ISO, ATEX, EASA and REACH regulations, CSRD)
Kiekens' systems are fully compliant with applicable regulations (ISO, ATEX, EASA and REACH regulations, CSRD), so that aircraft manufacturers meet the required safety and environmental standards.
Risk of explosion due to accumulation of particulate matter and aluminum chips
Our ATEX-certified extraction systems minimize the risk of dust explosions thanks to highly effective extraction and filtration of potentially explosive particles.
High energy costs due to inefficient extraction systems
With smart IoT-integrated systems, the suction power automatically adjusts based on real-time needs. This leads to significant energy savings and lower operating costs.

A suitable solution

De Dustmaster 9000

Bij de productie en bewerking van vliegtuigdelen komt schadelijk fijnstof vrij, zoals metaaldeeltjes en chroom-6. De Kiekens HV Dustmaster 9000 is ontworpen om deze deeltjes efficiënt af te zuigen en te filteren, met een hoogvacuümsysteem dat direct bij de bron stof opvangt. Dankzij de grote filtercapaciteit en automatische filterreiniging blijft de afzuiging continu optimaal presteren, zonder verstoringen in het productieproces.

Met zijn robuuste bouw en modulaire opzet sluit de Dustmaster 9000 naadloos aan op de strenge eisen in de luchtvaartindustrie. Grote spelers zoals Airbus vertrouwen op Kiekens voor een veilige, schone en efficiënte werkomgeving.

Are your products suitable for the extraction of Chromium 6?

The use of chromium 6 in paint products has been a hot topic for years. This is because Chromium-6 poses the necessary proven health risks. Nevertheless, the Ministry of Defence uses this chromium-6-containing paint. This is because the chromium-6 prevents material from rusting and thus contributes to safe equipment and material in an industry that cannot afford defects.

In order to protect the health of workers who come into contact with this paint, the necessary measures must be taken. One of them is the use of an extraction system, such as Kiekens' Dustmaster 1200. In addition to extracting (fine) dust, we also specialize in customized technical solutions for filtering chromium 6 and chemicals from the air. Do you have an issue in this area? Our technical experts are happy to think along with you.

Dust extraction in Defense and the aviation industry

With the processing of wood, metal, and other materials, airborne dust particles are a given in defense and the aviation industry. Then it's good to know that with innovative source extraction and a powerful ventilation system with high-quality filters, dust has no chance. This makes compliance with environmental standards easier and reduces costs for emission rights and CO2 fines.
