A.C.T. Dust Collectors

Industrial Dust Collection for Woodworking Operations

A.C.T. Dust Collectors provides industrial baghouse systems designed for woodworking facilities that generate continuous volumes of wood dust, chips, and shavings. Their TLM and ARB Series systems are engineered to maintain airflow across multiple machines while handling material ranging from fine sanding dust to heavier planer chips.

Why ACT for Woodworking

Built for High Volume Wood Dust Collection

Production woodworking facilities place very different demands on dust collection than a small shop. A.C.T. woodworking systems are designed for centralized collection across multiple machines, helping maintain balanced airflow and static pressure.

System Advantages

Engineered for Continuous Woodworking

01

High Capacity Bag Filtration

Designed to handle both fine sanding dust and heavier wood chips and shavings.

02

Continuous Production

Pulse jet cleaning helps maintain airflow and extend filter life during ongoing operation.

03

Scalable Systems

Modular baghouse designs can grow with additional machines and production demand.

Equipment Demonstrations

How the System Works

How ACT Baghouse Systems Handle Wood Dust and Chips

01

Capture

Dust laden air is drawn from woodworking equipment through ductwork into the collector.

02

Separate

Larger chips and heavier waste drop out of the airstream in the hopper before reaching the filters.

03

Filter

Fine dust is captured by the bag filters as air passes through the collector.

04

Exhaust or Return

Cleaned air moves through the clean air plenum for exhaust or return to the facility, depending on the installation.

Why Baghouse Instead of Cartridge

Why Baghouse Collection for Woodworking

From A.C.T.

A.C.T. states that baghouse collectors are generally the better fit for industrial woodworking because bag filtration can handle both fine dust and heavier chips and shavings without the frequent clogging that can occur in smaller cartridge systems. They are especially suited to operations running multiple machines or larger production volumes.

  • Handles fine dust and heavier chips
  • Less prone to frequent clogging
  • Suited to multiple machines and higher volumes
