Description
The VB-400 is the entry point of the VentraBox series — a dual downdraft blow-off station built for individual operators and small-to-medium CNC machining environments. Place your part, use your existing air gun, and the VB-400 captures 100% of the oil and coolant mist before it reaches your facility air.
Ideal Applications
- CNC machining – Clean milled, turned, or drilled parts immediately after a cycle without contaminating the shop floor.
- Grinding operations – Captures fine coolant mist produced when blowing off ground components before inspection or assembly.
- Swiss lathe & turning centers – Sized for the small, high-precision parts common to Swiss screw machine and sliding headstock operations.
- Parts inspection stations – Blow off residual fluid before CMM, vision system, or manual inspection without misting the measurement area.
- Tool & die – Ideal for low-to-medium volume shops where individual operators clean components at a shared workstation.
- Commercial food production – Removes fluid and debris from food-contact components and equipment parts in hygiene-critical environments.
- Aerospace components – Supports clean handling of precision aerospace parts where fluid contamination before finishing is unacceptable.
- Precision & medical device – HEPA-filtered exhaust makes it suitable for environments with strict particulate control requirements.
Options and Configurations
- Tabletop mount – Sits directly on an existing workbench. Ideal for shops with fixed work surfaces or limited floor space
- Stand mount – Freestanding unit on a dedicated stand, bringing the work surface to ergonomic operator height.
- Heavy-duty casters – Available with caster wheels to move the VB-400 between machines or stations without tools.
- All metalworking fluids – Compatible with straight oil, soluble oil emulsion, and synthetic coolant — no configuration change required.
