DUO#DustCollect® – Dust Separation and Filtration Systems for Industrial Production Processes
Efficient separation and filtration of dust and paper particles for clean production environments, reduced maintenance costs, and measurably higher equipment availability.
Why is efficient dust collection critical?
In corrugated cardboard, printing, and paper processing, dust, fiber residues, and paper scraps are constantly generated and accumulate in machinery, air systems, and production areas. Without targeted dust collection, these particles can lead to increased wear, unplanned downtime, and quality issues in downstream processes.
The demand for reliable separation and filtration increases, especially at high production speeds. At the same time, modern systems must be operated in an energy-efficient, low-maintenance, and process-reliable manner.
High-performance dust collection and filtration systems create stable conditions here by capturing, separating, and removing particle streams from the process in a controlled manner. This enables sustainable improvements in machine availability, product quality, and the efficiency of industrial extraction systems.
Advantages of DUO#DustCollect®
- Reliable separation of dust and paper particles
- Reduced contamination of machinery and air systems
- Extended maintenance and cleaning intervals
- High operational reliability even with large air volumes
- Energy-efficient and robust system design
- Flexible integration into new and existing facilities
- Scalable solutions for different dust fractions
With optimized dust separation, you increase overall plant effectiveness and ensure clean, stable production conditions.
Which DUO#DustCollect® solution is right for you?
The choice of the appropriate system depends primarily on particle size, air volume, and process requirements.

Functional principle of the DUO#DustCollect® systems
Whether filtering, separating, or a combination of both, with Duo#DustCollect®, Duo-Technik offers a comprehensive portfolio for removing dust and paper particles from industrial air streams. Depending on particle size, air volume, and process requirements, various operating principles are available.
The portfolio includes:
- Centrifugal separators for the preliminary separation of coarse particles and paper scraps
- Centrifugal filters for the filtration of fine dust down to dust class M
- Combination systems for simultaneous separation and filtration in a coordinated overall system
Thanks to their modular design, the systems can be precisely adapted to the specific application and integrated into both new plants and existing production lines.
Typical Applications of DUO#DustCollect® Systems
DUO#DustCollect® systems are used wherever dust and fiber particles need to be reliably removed from air streams in corrugated cardboard, printing, and paper processing.
Typical applications include:
- Corrugated cardboard lines and inliners
- Flexo and digital printing lines
- Cross-cutters and slitters
- Extraction systems on finishing machines
- Centralized extraction systems in paper processing
- Converting and packaging processes
Due to their flexible system design, DUO#DustCollect® solutions are suitable for both localized extraction tasks and centralized air distribution systems.
