Minden Systems developments
With emphasis on renewable energy and economy, we are concentrating on developing a system to recycle the heat generated by the motors in Minden Dust Extraction systems.

As an addition to our range of dust extraction systems, we are developing a more economic system that has uses less floor area to suit smaller workshops.

2010 Starting with a clean sheet
Virtually all the country has been covered with a white sheet of snow in the first few weeks of January, this clean sheet has brought a mixed bag of fortunes.
Many of the bodyshops are busy, a good start to the New Year for the automotive trade.
The disruption and traffic chaos has not been good for many others. Some caused by drivers who have no idea how to drive in the snow, some of whom are dismayed to find their cars have been towed away - they won't tell the media they left them in the middle of the carriageway.
My german friends cannot understand that we do not have snow tyres or chains, it is compulsory for them to have some. Perhaps a few entrepreneurs could sell them here!
Minden have continued their service through most of the bad weather, keeping customers going - especially important for our bodyshop customers who are busy!

Big or Small, there's a Minden system for all!
Alas, not a decent poet in site! (Oh no! another pun!)
Joking aside, as well as our excellent known brand customer sites (Aston Martin, BMW, Airbus), we have also many customers with single site independent bodyshops. What they all have in common is the need to have centralised dust extraction equipment that is dependable, easy to use and economical.
User training and advice are all part of our installation service.
KJ Rule, a Mercedes-Benz, VW and PAS125 automotive bodyshop is one of the latest to decide to add a Minden Centralised Dust Extraction System to their credentials.

Hoses and Accessories
We have just taken on a new line of vac blocks and hoses to add to our range of dust extraction accessories. Details will be added to our web site soon.

Minden Systems in Manufacturing
We have just finished an installation in Kelso where huge GRP tanks are manufactured. One of our 11kw centralise dust extraction plants has been installed to collect dust from grinders and hand-held saws.
GKN Aerospace on the Isle of Wight liked the first unit we installed at New Year so much, they have installed another centralised dust extraction system, capturing dust at point of drilling. The high velocity vacuum power and easy maintenance are just a couple of the features they benefit from. There is no better recommendation for Minden dust extraction systems as GKN have others on their site, but love Minden!

Minden Systems are going to the Mercedes conference
We have new and further developed ideas that we will be showing.
Aluminium dust need no longer be an issue with our ATEX models and a generous upgrade option.
Energy savings are high on the agenda with our 'AUTOFLOW' switching. These ensure units are not left to run-on when not being used.
In some cases, particularly where operations have two dust extraction units, changing to a Minden System can save a lot in energy, maintenance and running costs.
We will be having a free draw - the prize is a box of wine. All that is needed is a business card to enter.

Minden Systems have moved on!
It is now September and we have been in our new unit for 9 months. We have a bigger office and more warehousing, but are still struggling for space!
Has anyone got some 5m high racking to spare? !!
