Heavy Duty Fans For Industry

Power Generation, Mining Ventilation, Cement Industry, Metallurgy, Chemical & Petrochemical & General Industry


Power Generation

Increasing cost of energy, stronger competition from alternative power systems and ever changing technology means the demand for higher operating efficiencies and lower operating costs from major plants is getting stronger.

Today's fans are designed to meet these demands with better reliability, more efficient flow control, lower noise levels and more common use of high strength materials for both rotating and stationery components.

Worldwide, Flakt Woods has established a name synonymous with quality and innovation on both radial flow (centrifugal) and axial flow fans for: Gas Cleaning Systems, Heat Recovery Plant, Boiler Installations, General Process Fans.

Strong local knowledge combined with extensive international contacts ensures we can design, supply and install fans for almost any power generation application.






Mining Ventilation & Auxiliary Fans

Flakt Woods Fans have a depth of experience in designing ventilation for underground conditions that is second to none.  There are few mines in Australia where the quality of air underground is not maintained by Flakt Woods Fans' equipment.

We can provide a complete turn key service to the mining industry to ensure every component downstream of the shaft collar - ducting, dampers, inlet vanes, mountings, motors, cabling, control or civil works - is designed, selected and installed to be fully compatible with a fans' performance and complies with local statutory regulations and ventilation requirements.

Flakt Woods also offer a full range of auxiliary or secondary vent fans - all selected for optimum performance and suitability.

Over a century of experience is your guarantee of reliable on-going service over the extended life and an installation - we know lives depend on it.
