Background
Absolent Air Care Group specialises in filters that purify polluted air from oil mist, oil smoke, gas and/or dust generated from various manufacturing processes. With Semcon’s help, the company is now developing the next-generation modular carbon filter for air purification based on a patented concept. Semcon’s team has been looking into how to improve handling of the new carbon filters in terms of aspects such as ergonomics, air flow and production technology.
Solution
is Semcon’s cross-functional development department and serves as an extended R&D department for the customer.
With a more efficient carbon filter design, more filters can fit into each compartment, or module, and with the help of user studies, they are also easier to handle when emptying.
