Self-Cleaning Downdraft Tables

Your welding, grinding, and cutting stations need source capture at the work surface — before fume reaches the breathing zone. Pick a size, pick a grate, plug it in. Push-button pulse cleaning keeps your filter performing without taking the unit apart. Four sizes from 1,500 to 6,000 CFM, shipped fully assembled from our in-stock inventory.

What sets these tables apart

Most downdraft tables sit at one of two extremes — consumer-grade plug-ins that can’t keep up with shop welding, or fully custom industrial units that take weeks to build and quote. These Quick Ship tables land in between: purpose-built industrial construction, in-stock inventory for 48-hour ship, and pricing you can see before you pick up the phone.

Push-Button Pulse Cleaning

Your operator triggers a compressed-air pulse between jobs or at shift end to knock dust off the cartridge. No taking the unit apart, no replacing filters because suction died. Requires clean shop air at 80–100 PSI.

Nanofiber FR Cartridge

146 sq ft of nanofiber media captures fine welding fume and metalworking dust at 99.97% efficiency at 0.5 micron. Fire-retardant treatment keeps sparks from igniting collected dust inside the filter.

Triple-Layer Spark Protection

A drop-out tray catches heavy slag before it reaches the cartridge. A wrap shields the bottom 80% of the filter. The FR coating handles anything that gets through. Three layers because welding sparks are not negotiable.

Fully Assembled, Plug and Run

Every unit ships fully assembled on locking caster wheels. Roll it to your station, plug it in, your team is working. The SD23 runs on a standard 120V outlet — larger sizes need 230V or 460V three-phase.

12/14 Gauge Welded Steel

Welded steel cabinet, powder-coated grey inside and out. Built to take a beating in a working shop — durable for production, not pretty for a showroom. Side and back shields contain spatter at the work surface.

1-Year Parts & Labor Warranty

Standard manufacturer warranty covers cabinet, motor, blower, controls, and cleaning system for one full year. Call us at 602-456-9661 for service — we coordinate the warranty claim on your behalf. Cartridge filter is consumable, not covered.

Pick the right size for your work

The size you need is driven by the largest workpiece you set on the table — not by your shop square footage. Welding a 30″ frame on a 24″ surface means fume escapes the capture zone. Here’s how the four sizes line up against real shop applications.

Entry · 120V

SD23

24″ × 36″ · 1,500 CFM

$7,995 $8,995 Sale

For bench welding, soldering stations, and small-format grinding. Plug-and-run on a standard 120V outlet — you don’t need an electrician. Common in welding training labs, small custom fab shops, and dedicated workstations inside larger facilities.

  • 3/4 HP direct-drive blower
  • 120V single-phase, 16.6 amps
  • 350 lbs · single pallet
  • Best for one welder, workpieces under 24″
Production · 3-Phase

SD34

36″ × 48″ · ~3,000 CFM

$12,450 $14,995 Sale

Where most production shops land. Surface fits the typical fabrication piece, and the 3 HP blower keeps capture velocity strong even with the larger work zone. Common in metal fab shops, custom motorcycle and automotive shops, and trade school welding programs.

  • 3 HP direct-drive blower
  • 230V or 460V three-phase
  • Single pallet, lift-gate available
  • Best for production welding and grinding
Heavy Fab · 3-Phase

SD46

48″ × 72″ · ~4,500 CFM

$14,250 $16,995 Sale

The size that handles structural welding, larger fabrications, and pieces a single operator wouldn’t move alone. 5 HP blower keeps the larger surface under proper downdraft velocity. Common in structural fab shops, ag equipment makers, and aerospace tier-2 suppliers.

  • 5 HP direct-drive blower
  • 230V or 460V three-phase
  • LTL freight, lift-gate recommended
  • Best for structural fab and bigger weldments
Largest Format · 3-Phase

SD48

48″ × 96″ · ~6,000 CFM

$17,995 $19,995 Sale

An 8-foot work surface for the largest fabrications a downdraft table makes sense for. Beyond this point, fume arms or a central system usually do the job better. Common where shops are running long structural pieces, large aerospace components, or full-frame work that doesn’t fit anywhere else.

  • 10 HP direct-drive blower
  • 230V or 460V three-phase
  • LTL freight, lift-gate required
  • Best for largest workpieces in a downdraft footprint

What you can run on it

Designed for OSHA-aligned welding and metalworking applications. Capture velocity at the work surface meets typical exposure limits for the processes below — though your specific compliance depends on your process, your ventilation, and your duty cycle. For documented NFPA 660 compliance with engineered sizing and ductwork, book a free assessment.

MIG & TIG WeldingBench welding generating hexavalent chromium and manganese fume. Source capture at the table is the most effective method for fixed-station work.
Grinding & DeburringAngle grinding, bench grinding, deburring producing metalworking dust and sparks. The steel grate handles grinding sparks.
Plasma & Oxy-Fuel CuttingSmall-format plasma and oxy-fuel cutting where the workpiece fits within the table surface area.
Soldering & ElectronicsPCB soldering, rework stations, and electronic assembly where lead and flux fume capture is needed at a fixed bench.
ITAR-Controlled EnvironmentsAerospace and defense contractor shops working titanium, Inconel, and specialty alloys. Your facility holds the ITAR cert; the equipment carries documented filtration efficiency.
Schools and Training LabsVocational and trade school welding programs where quick deployment and minimal maintenance matter.

When this isn’t right for you

A downdraft table works best on a fixed bench. If your work doesn’t match that pattern, here’s what does — and we’d rather tell you up front than have you order the wrong thing.

A different product is better when…

  • Your work is too big for an 8-foot surface — get a fume arm at the arc instead
  • Your welding stations move around the floor — a portable extractor follows the work
  • You have 4+ fixed stations — a central cartridge collector is more cost-effective per station
  • You’re grinding combustible reactive metals (aluminum, magnesium, titanium dust) — NFPA 660 requires a wet collector, not dry

Book an assessment instead when…

  • You need certified NFPA 660 compliance documentation for your facility
  • You’re under an OSHA citation timeline and need documented system design
  • You’re planning a full facility build-out with permitted ductwork
  • You want a fully engineered system — our team sizes the unit, designs the ductwork, and handles the install

Questions buyers actually ask

Yes. The pulse-jet cartridge cleaning runs off your shop air — typically 80 to 100 PSI clean, dry compressed air. If you don’t already have shop air at the work area, you’ll need to plumb a line or run a small dedicated compressor. The unit itself doesn’t include a compressor.
No, and we want to be clear about that. Cleaning is push-button — the operator triggers a compressed-air pulse between jobs, at breaks, or at shift end. The cartridge stays on the unit the whole time, no disassembly, no filter changes during a shift. Most shops trigger it once or twice a shift and call it good.
Yes — SD23 only. It’s 120V single-phase, 16.6 amps, so a standard 20-amp shop outlet handles it. The SD34, SD46, and SD48 all need 230V or 460V three-phase power. If you’re not sure what your shop has, ask your electrician before ordering anything bigger than the SD23.
Typical service life runs 12 to 24 months on a single-shift welding application with regular pulse cleaning. Heavier duty (multiple shifts, grinding-heavy work, or fine particulate) shortens that. The cartridge is consumable and not covered by warranty — plan on it as a maintenance line item, similar to abrasive discs.
The unit is designed for OSHA-aligned welding fume capture and uses a 99.97% efficient filter at 0.5 micron. Whether your specific shop passes inspection depends on your process, your dust type, your ventilation, and how the table fits into your overall capture strategy. For a fully engineered NFPA 660 compliant system with documented sizing, ductwork, and installation, book a free assessment and we’ll talk through it.
Fiberglass is the standard grate — lighter, easier to lift out for cleaning, fine for most welding and grinding work. Steel grate is the heavy-duty option at no extra charge — better for shops dropping heavy parts on the surface, working with larger pieces, or running grinding sparks all day. Both grates work with all four sizes.
All units ship LTL freight on a single pallet. Freight is included in your price for delivery to AZ, CA, NV, NM, and UT. The SD23 is light enough that most freight terminals deliver without a lift-gate. SD34 and SD46 may need a lift-gate at delivery. SD48 always needs a lift-gate. If your facility doesn’t have a loading dock, mention that when you order — we’ll coordinate the right delivery option.
Industrial equipment returns aren’t simple — once a unit ships, freight and restocking fees apply. The best approach is to call us at 602-456-9661 before you order so we can confirm the right size and configuration for your application. We’d rather spend 10 minutes on the phone than have you stuck with the wrong unit.
