Why Dust Collection Systems Matter Across Industries
From woodworking and food processing to metal fabrication and cement production, efficient dust collection systems protect workers, equipment, and air quality. Discover how the right ductwork makes all the difference.
Why Dust Collection Systems Matter
Dust collection systems play a critical role in maintaining safe and efficient operations across multiple industries. The right system does more than collect debris. It keeps facilities compliant, equipment running, and employees healthy.
- Protecting health: Prevents respiratory problems caused by fine airborne particles.
- Ensuring safety: Reduces fire and explosion risks from combustible dust.
- Improving productivity: Keeps machinery clean and operating at peak performance.
- Regulatory compliance: Helps meet OSHA, NFPA, and local air quality standards.

Key Components of a Duct2Go Dust Collection System
1. Dust Collector Unit
The collector is the heart of the system, but its performance depends on tight, well sealed ductwork. Duct2Go fittings are precision made to minimize leaks and maximize suction power.
2. Spiral and Round Ducting
Our spiral ducts are the preferred choice for dust collection because they:
- Reduce static pressure with smooth, continuous airflow.
- Handle long runs without significant performance loss.
- Offer cost effective durability and simple installation.
3. Blast Gates and Transitions
Pair your ductwork with precision fabricated blast gates, reducers, and transitions to control suction at each workstation. Duct2Go builds transitions to fit your collector and machinery perfectly.
4. Filtration and Air Return
Integrate overhead filtration and return ducts to maintain clean, breathable air. Duct2Go’s metal ducting integrates seamlessly into filtration and recirculation systems for continuous operation.
Designing Your Shop Layout
- Centralize the collector: Position it near your heaviest dust producing equipment.
- Use spiral duct runs: Keep bends to a minimum to reduce friction and airflow loss.
- Size ducts correctly: Oversized or undersized ducts lower suction. Duct2Go fabricates to exact gauges and diameters for any system.
- Seal and secure: Use proper clamps, sealant, and support spacing to ensure airtight performance.
Benefits of Working with Duct2Go
- Custom fabrication: Tailored to your facility layout and machine placement.
- Durable materials: Galvanized, stainless, and aluminum sheet metal options.
- Quick turnaround: Short lead times with nationwide shipping.
