Industrial Vacuum Cleaners
Goodway ofers a wide variety of 
industrial
vacuum cleaners and accessories both
for commercial and industrial maintenance.
Goodway industrial vacuum cleaners
are constructed of heavy gauge steel, stainless steel and aluminum for
reliability and long life. Goodway industrial vacuum cleaners use a two-stage
or by-pass motor. By-pass motors are constructed so that the impeller
housing is sealed and isolated from the motor housing. The motor housing
has its own cooling fan which draws clean outside air into the motor housing,
preventing the possibility of dirt getting into the motor and reducing
the life of industrial vacuum cleaners. By-pass motors are more expensive,
but they are also more reliable. Goodway also manufactures a complete
line of air powered industrial vacuums.
Goodway has industrial vacuum cleaners to serve all
of your different commercial vacuum cleaning applications, including both
high flow and or high lift machines. High flow industrial vacuum cleaners,
are ideal for vacuuming light, powdery materials such as soot and dust.
While static water lift industrial vacuum cleaners will serve you best,
if wet pickup is your goal. We can also help you find industrial vacuum
cleaners that can serve both your wet and dry pick-up needs.
Industrial vacuum cleaner applications
Goodway's complete line of leading
industrial vacuum cleaners is used across various industries. Below
are some of the common industrial vacuum cleaner
uses.
Agriculture
One industrial vacuum cleaner application unique to agricultural operations
is the recovery of grain dust from silos. Grain dust is flammable,
so it is crucial that the industrial vacuum is either explosion proof
electric or air powered. Goodway manufactures several industrial
vacuums to meet the special needs of agricultural operations.
Automotive
One of the constants in the automotive industry is the use of
paints and powder coatings. When changing colors, overspray and
lost powder must be recovered from coating booths. High efficiency
filtration is critical here. Automotive plants typically select
high quality industrial vacuums, both air powered and electric, with
multiple element filters. All of Goodway’s industrial vacuums
are designed to meet the specifications of the automotive industry.
Aviation
In aviation factories, paints and powders are as common as in
the automotive industry, making their vacuum requirements identical. Clean
rooms are not uncommon in avionics production and HEPA filtered vacuums
are a must here. Once they are in service, airplanes must be cleaned
regularly. Small canister vacuums and backpack
vacuums are great
for quickly cleaning airplane interiors between flights. Goodway’s
industrial vacuums are designed to meet the challenges of the Aviation
industry cleaning needs.
Baking
Perhaps the most common application for an industrial vacuum in the baking
industry is flour recovery. Flour is very fine material that
quickly clogs normal vacuums. That’s why baking plants
look for units with multi stage filtration and external filter shakers
to keep them from clogging. Liquid spill recovery is also a common
requirement in baking plants. Goodway offers several industrial vacuum
cleaners that provide come with the features required buy the Baking
industry.
Beverage
As one might imagine, spill recovery is by far the biggest need in beverage
plants. These operations look for high static lift in industrial
vacuums as the lift is required to pick up various liquids. High static
lift is also necessary to recover heavier objects such as bottle caps.
Goodway designs and manufactures industrial vacuums that meet the stringent
lift needs of the Beverage industry.
Chemical
Chemical plant personnel deal with hazardous materials of varying
degrees that require HEPA
vacuums for product recovery. Industrial
vacuums are typically used for product transfer as well. One area
where product recovery is very important is in the product packaging
operations. Goodway manufactures the industrial strength HEPA vacuum
cleaners.
Industrial Buildings
The number one industrial vacuum application in industrial buildings
is housekeeping – it’s a never ending job. A good
wet-dry vacuum is invaluable for general cleaning as well as recovering
spills and plumbing overflows. In older buildings, HEPA vacuums
are used for asbestos and lead paint recovery. Goodway designs and manufactures
and sells the industrial vacuums to meet industrial building maintenance
needs.
Electrical & Electronics
Critical electronic components are often assembled in clean
rooms where HEPA vacuums are used to maintain clean conditions. Oil
and chemical spills also require a high quality wet vacuum. Goodway’s
industrial vacuums are used to maintain cleanliness in the electronics
industry.
Food
Industrial vacuums are used extensively in food plants of all kinds for
spill and product recovery in the production and packaging operations. Transferring
of product is another use for industrial vacuums in the food industry.
Goodway manufactures several industrial vacuums that can be used to
help maintain food plants.
Healthcare
There is, perhaps, no other place where cleanliness is more critical
than a health care facility. High efficient filtration vacuums
or industrial HEPA vacuums are required to protect patients from airborne
contaminants that can be stirred up by lesser quality industrial vacuums.
Goodway’s industrial vacuums are specially built to meet the efficiency
standards required in Healthcare facilities.
Manufacturing
One of the most common industrial vacuum applications in manufacturing
is chip and coolant recovery in machining operation. Goodway’s
ChipMaster® line is designed specifically to recover chips and coolant
in various manufacturing plants.
Maritime
In the past, lead paint was the standard paint used in the maritime industry.
When the lead paint is stripped from ships, industrial HEPA vacuums
are required to remove and filter the potential contaminants produced
as a byproduct of the process. In addition, industrial HEP vacuums
are commonly used for the recovery of blast media used in sandblasting. Goodway’s
industrial HEPA vacuums are highly efficient and can filter out the
contaminants produced when cleaning vessels.
Mining
Air powered vacuums are used extensively in the mining industry. Industrial
vacuums are perfect for dust recovery as their high static lift also
makes them terrific at recovering the various liquids used in mining
facilities. Goodway has developed several industrial vacuums used
in mining operations around the globe.
Pharmaceutical
In the pharmaceutical industry, when they think “vacuum”,
they think “HEPA” vacuum. Among other uses, HEPA vacuums
are used to clean tablet ovens, maintaining clean rooms and for hazardous
material recovery. Goodway’s HEPA vacuums are designed with
the highest filtration standards and are widely used in the pharmaceutical
industry.
Plastics & Rubber
In plastic molding plants, raw plastic is delivered in the form
of small round resin pellets of various colors and sizes. Industrial
vacuums are required to clean up or recover these pellets throughout
the plants. Goodway’s industrial vacuums are used extensively in
these plants to keep control over the pellets as well as for recovery
of hydraulic oil spills.
Publishing
Printing plants are inundated with paper dust that finds its way into
everything. In order to keep up with the dust, several industrial
vacuums are placed strategically throughout plants. Another application
for industrial vacuums in these plants is the recovery of ink powder
and liquid ink. In addition Goodway’s industrial and backpack
vacuums are used to keep fleets of delivery trucks clean.
Pulp & Paper
Large quantities of water are used in the paper making process. It
is important that reliable and powerful industrial vacuums are used to
recover the water and other materials used in the manufacturing process. In
Paper mills, scrap paper recovery is another important role for industrial
vacuums. Goodway’s industrial vacuums are used by several paper
mills to maintain cleanliness and recover various production materials.
Railroads
Railroad stations require constant maintenance and housekeeping. Powerful
industrial vacuums are used extensively to ensure rail stations kept
clean to ensure safety to passengers and operators. Bathroom and
food spills are another area where industrial vacuums provide a necessary
service. Goodway’s Backpack vacuums make quick work of cleaning
train interiors, and our high quality wet/dry vacuums are used in maintenance
shops for many jobs.
Textiles
Textile plants rely on quality industrial vacuums to keep a handle on
lint, fabric dust, thread and cloth scraps, all of which require high
efficiency filtration. Industrial vacuums are also used in textile
plants to recover dye when spilt. Goodway’s industrial
vacuums are built to meet the filtration and lift requirements of the
textile industry.
US Postal Service
Industrial vacuums are used to remove paper dust from sorting
equipment in postal service facilities. When anthrax was discovered
in some sorting facilities, conventional vacuums were replaced with HEPA
vacuums to protect postal workers from the threat of contamination by
exposure to the dangerous spores. Goodway industrial HEPA vacuums meet
the filtration needs of the Postal service.
Utilities
In some power plants, coal dust and fly ash recovery are a never ending
process. Without a high quality air powered or explosion
proof industrial vacuum the collection of these by products can be
extremely cumbersome. Lime dust recovery is another common application
where industrial vacuum cleaners are necessary. In nuclear plants,
HEPA vacuums are used exclusively for radiation waste recovery. Goodway’s
develops durable and efficient industrial vacuums used by many utilities.
