Moldow rooftop installation example
This breakthrough system uses bug filters for dust collection to efficiently collect and transport dust generated by working with cardboard, paper, and wood.
Rubbish from processing machines is sent into the conveyor duct. There, oversized rubbish is screened out and carried via a duct to the outside of the machine.
Lightweight rubbish is lifted up and captured with bug filters.
The bug filter collects at least 90% of all dust with a diameter of 0.5µm or larger. The ejected air has a dust concentration of around 0.08mg/m3.

With a lower dust concentration than normal air, ejected air can be returned to the factory without being treated. This allows heat source power to be saved, especially when using a heater in winter.
The bug filter, with a low pressure loss, reduces necessary transportation power.
The bug filters never receive excessive stress, enabling over 10 years of continuous use without replacement.
Moldow itself generates little noise. In installation cases so far, it has achieved a noise level of 50dB or lower at the boundary with neighboring blocks.
With its modular architecture the system can be enhanced as and when an extension is required, by simply adding intermediate sections.
The bug filter system has a separator for each section to prevent flames from spreading even in case of a fire.
The system is equipped to protect against a dust explosion, with an explosion-proof door that can prevent a dilation deformation of its casing. It also allows for the installation of sprinklers.
