Remove debris before it migrates.
Dedicated vacuum access helps crews remove chips, dust, and fragments before they move into fixtures, bays, tooling, or assemblies.
Aerospace & Defense
Vacuum systems for FOD-aware aerospace and defense production.
TVD helps aerospace teams plan central drops, point-source capture, portable high-efficiency cleanup, and grounded tooling around composite dust, metal fines, FOD exposure, and uptime-sensitive work areas.
FOD-aware
Pickup layouts that support clean work areas and repeatable cleanup behavior
High-efficiency paths
Portable and central filtration options for fine particulate control
Grounded tooling
Conductive hoses and accessories where static or dust conditions require them
Retrofit-ready
Systems planned around existing utilities, bays, and maintenance access
Precision facilities need cleanup that matches the work cell.
Composite sanding, drilling, trimming, deburring, machining, and assembly can create fine particulate and FOD risks that ordinary shop vacuums are not built to manage.
Capture fine dust close to the task.
High-efficiency filtration, pre-separation, and point-source capture help reduce airborne and settled particulate.
Clean without blocking production.
Correct hose routing, drop placement, and collection location keep cleanup practical in congested production areas.
Built around aerospace work cells, bays, and material streams.
TVD plans vacuum access around where dust is created, how parts move, and where operators can clean without interfering with production.
01
Filtration planning
Pre-separation and HEPA options help manage fine dust before it overloads the system.
02
Portable work-cell support
Portable industrial vacuums can support maintenance, spot cleanup, and temporary production zones.
03
Central drops
Permanent drops reduce mobile equipment traffic and make cleanup more repeatable across bays.
04
Collection access
Remote collection packages keep filters, drums, and service points away from sensitive work areas.
Separate source capture, central drops, and portable cleanup.
Aerospace applications often need a mix of central vacuum drops, point-source capture, portable high-efficiency cleanup, and grounded accessories.
Portable
High-efficiency portable vacuum
Spot cleanup for cells, maintenance teams, composite dust, and fine debris workflows.
Central
Central vacuum drops
Fixed drops across bays, tooling areas, production routes, and support spaces.
Filtration
Pre-separation and final filtration
Layered filtration to protect the vacuum package and reduce downstream loading.
Industrial
Grounded cleanup package
Application-specific hoses, tooling, and recovery packages for dust, chips, and dry material.
Retrofit
Existing system support
Survey, service, and redesign options for legacy systems that need better access or filtration.
TVD Approach
Schedule Free Site Assessment
Engineering support for uptime-sensitive production.
The right aerospace vacuum system depends on material, tool count, pickup distance, duty cycle, filtration target, and how the production team controls FOD.
Map work cells and debris paths
We identify where dust and fragments originate, where they travel, and where operators need access.
Match filtration to the material
Composite dust, metal fines, and general debris require different pre-separation, filter media, and maintenance planning.
Plan service access early
Filter changes, drum handling, and separator access should happen without disrupting critical work zones.
Designed around aerospace facility objectives.
TVD designs to support FOD, housekeeping, filtration, and dust-control objectives while your internal team, insurer, and compliance partners own final requirements.
FOD Programs
Facility-specific foreign object debris control support
OSHA 1910.22

OSHA Ventilation
Dust and contaminant control where process conditions require it
NFPA 660
Combustible dust framework where dust hazards may exist
NFPA 484
Metal dust considerations where applicable
Grounding/ESD
Conductive accessories where material and facility rules require them
Common Questions
What aerospace teams usually ask first.
These answers focus on FOD, filtration, and production uptime.
Can a vacuum system help with FOD control?
Yes, when pickup points and tooling are placed around the work cells where debris is created and handled as part of the team's normal cleanup process.
Do we need HEPA filtration?
Many fine-dust applications benefit from HEPA or layered filtration, but the right answer depends on material, exposure controls, and maintenance expectations.
Can TVD work around existing production bays?
Yes. Retrofit planning can account for utilities, cranes, mezzanines, restricted access, and phased installation.
Can one system serve multiple departments?
Often, but only if airflow, pipe runs, simultaneous users, and collection logistics are sized correctly.
