A complete industrial air filtration solution for welding fumes.
Recently, Nederman launched the new compact plug-and-play welding fume extractor MCP-GO SmartFilter, which is building off Nederman industry-leading MCP SmartFilter technology. The MCP-GO is a complete industrial air filtration solution for welding applications that offers advanced filtration technology in a simple, quick to install and easy-to-use package. It provides power and versatility for a wide range of applications and is a reliable, clean air solution for manual welding, welding robots or cobots, and thermal cutting processes.
The MCP-GO SmartFilter stands out for its advanced filtration technology, which is packaged in an all-in-one fume extraction system. Here are some of the top advantages of choosing MCP-GO:
Weld fumes are considered a Class 1 carcinogen and the International Institute of Welding states an excess risk of lung cancer for welders, because of the toxic air quality in their working environments. This does not only apply to manual welders but is also a major concern within laser or plasma cutting, and in operations with robots or cobots which just as well generate hazardous welding fumes that spread around the factory and into places where workers are located, even those who do not weld themselves.
More than 90% of welding fumes are less than 1 μm in diameter, which is equal to 75 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair. That is to say, it is extremely small particles that we have to deal with, and managing workers' exposure to these is essential to creating safe and productive workplaces that protect workers' health and comply with industry laws and regulations.
“It’s well known that welders are exposed to increased risk of lung cancer and other respiratory diseases, because of bad air quality in workplaces. We at Nederman have the solutions to protect this working group and minimize their health risks at work. With the MCP-GO we further strive to create safe and efficient workplaces and take yet another step towards our mission to shape the future for clean air” says Krzysztof Kwiatkowski, Strategic Product Manager at Nederman.
The MCP-GO system uses a highly efficient and flame-retardant Nanofiber filter media which captures the extremely fine particles with an immediate effect in an energy efficient way. While at the same time contributing to reduced energy consumption and a smaller footprint, nanofiber is an excellent and safe technology to use in welding fume extractors to protect welders and industry workers from harmful emissions.

The compact design makes the unit suitable for most factories and workshops. The plug-and-play installation and easy-to-use package makes it even more flexible. On top of this, the MCP-GO is available in two models so that you can choose the model that best fits your needs based on the airflow, pressure requirements and the fume generating process in your operation.
Both models have the same footprint, filtration technology and capabilities, and both can be tailored with accessories to build a complete fume extraction and filtration system. We provide extraction arms or local containment hoods to capture the welding fumes and a full range of quick fit, clamp together duct to convey the fume to the MCP-GO. Safety accessories like the in-line spark arrestor seamlessly connects into the duct system and deterring sparks. Read more about the MCP-GO models here.
Beyond the design, filter technology and flexible accessories, the MCP-GO offers an advanced control package that supports digital monitoring through the Nederman Insight cloud-based platform. Sensors on key components and the process enable you as a manufacturer to monitor the filter performance on your phone or computer, and thereby helping you to avoid costly downtime, improve maintenance, and drive safety of your fume extraction solution. Nedermans myAir concept is applicable on all Nederman SmartFilters and offers personalised service plans for the needs of tomorrow´s digital future.
