Engineering the new standards by welders for welders
Translas is a Dutch manufacturer of welding guns since 1960. A company founded by welders, for welders with a passion for innovation and new technologies, continually strives to engineer innovative products that boast a distinctive design, quality, and functionality. Welder’s safety is of paramount importance to Translas.
The company’s goal is to globally reduce welders’ exposure to hazardous fumes and provide a healthier and safer work environment. Some of the pioneering products include extractor guns with a built-in module to safely extract welding fumes at the source and portable extraction units for high-performance extraction.
Translas (Lyon, France)
January 1, 2019, Translas expanded its operations into the Canadian market with a new division -Translas Canada Industries Ltd. As of March 2021, Translas took part in the North American market with a newly launched division Translas North America.

Our Products
Welding fumes contain vapours, a mixture of airborne gas by-products and fine particles. The composition of the mixture depends on the welding method and the products that are welded. The vapours and gases released during welding can lead to serious health problems. Short-term exposure can result in nausea, dizziness, or eye, nose, and throat irritation. Prolonged exposure is like inhaling ultra-fine metal dust which can lead to cancer of the lung, damage to the brain, and kidney damage. Certain gases, such as helium, carbon dioxide, and argon, displace oxygen and argon specifically poses suffocation risks, particularly in enclosed work areas. For this reason, Translas, a Dutch welding torch manufacturer, developed fume welding torches – 7XE, 8XE MIG, and 8TE TIG Extractors – that extract the welding fumes directly at the source up to 98%.
WAT MAAKT TRANSLAS HET CIJFER 1
Welding guns and welding equipment from Translas are distinctive in:
- Ergonomic
- Durability
- Performance
- Shape
- Appearance
Translas Welding Fume Extraction Guns
8XE MIG
The 8XE MIG Extractor integrates the most efficient fume extraction structure in the welding industry. The torch comes with three different angles, 30°, 45° and straight. The 8XE MIG Extractor, combined with the ClearO2 W-series 100 and 200, captures up to 98% of welding fumes directly at the source. The 8XE MIG Extractor provides the safest and most effective solution for welders and workers to breathe CLEAN AIR and better work environments
7XE MIG
The 7XE MIG Extractor solution extracts up to 95% of the welding fumes directly at the source. When using the Translas 7XE MIG Extractor in combination with ClearO2, the harmful welding fumes and individual particulates are no longer released directly into the air; they are captured immediately as generated. This system reduces the amount of welding fumes and particulates in the workplace to less than 1 mg/m3 during an 8-hour working day.
8TE TIG
Our TIG Extractors protect the welders and other workers in the factory from harmful fumes and metals like Aluminium, Chromium, Iron, Manganese and Nickel are possibly released during the welding process. The 8TE TIG Extractor offers breakthrough integrated at-source fume extraction for the TIG welding process. The 8TE TIG Extractor handle has a unique ergonomic shape designed to suit the shape of the welder’s hand, fitting perfectly between the thumb and index fingers. The grip is made out of a durable but soft 2K TPE rubber. Both the ergonomic shape and the grip material contribute to the excellent stability of the torch during the welding process.
