Facility expansion

Flightcase manufacturer 5 Star Cases has kicked off 2012 with a new, much larger, custom designed sanding booth area at its Wisbech, UK, headquarters.

Air Bench was commissioned by 5 Star to specify three new downdraught tables that form the basis of the sanding booths. They supplied two FN126784s and one FN189784, which extract the dust and fumes away from the workspace by drawing them down through the work surface into the internal filters, simultaneously returning clean air into the room.

The sanding booth plays a central role in 5 Star's case production process, as all the specialist woodwork passes through it to be prepped prior to final spraying and finishing.
