Ventilation for flat bed UV printing

[JimmyInTN]

What kind of ventilation system to you all use that have UV flat bed printers? A long day of printing will cause a strong smell and will cause eye irritations. We don't want to just stick a fan in the wall and have it suck all the heat/cool air out too. Any ideas?

I don't have any ventilation system solutions, but some UV inks stink a lot less than others.

I bought an inline fan and hoses, I had to cut a hole onto the side of my machine (compress UV600) , then ran them all to a window, and that takes care of the smell. I spent less than $200 for all of it on amazon, I'll attach pictures

Im using a Duster 2000 and it works very well. Not only does it help keep your room clean it will knock all the smells down too. Id recommend it to anyone.

I love those inline fans! We use something similar on our laser and they're super quiet, but they flow pretty well.

I can also vouch for those AC Infinity cloudline fans - they work incredibly well! I've had one running for a few years straight without issue.

We got two carbon air scrubbers from island air.
