An SMZ745T on a ball-bearing boom needs headroom the standard hood does not give it. This is the tall version: same open work face, same capture geometry, 30" of internal height so the arm can swing without fouling the top panel.
The job is the same. Whatever rises off the part — flux fume, solvent, abrasive dust — currently rises into the face of whoever is at the oculars, and settles on a $3,000 objective. This hood contains that column and gives it a path out through a 4" port.
Machines that run unattended get a sealed box. A microscope is continuously attended with hands inside the work volume, so a box is the wrong shape entirely. This is a capture hood: full open work face, fixed upper baffle, nothing between you and the part.
CNC-cut panels, all brackets and assembly hardware, and written instructions. Filters and inline fans are sold separately.
This hood contains the plume and gives it a path out. It is not a certified fume hood — no ANSI/ASHRAE 110, no SEFA 9, and no capture-efficiency, airflow or health claims from us. Ducted outside it moves fume out of your breathing zone; with a consumer-tier carbon filter it reduces fumes and smells. If your process needs validated containment, buy a certified lab hood.

When you place an order, we will estimate shipping and delivery dates for you based on the availability of your items and the shipping options you choose. Depending on the shipping provider you choose, shipping date estimates may appear on the shipping quotes page.
Please also note that the shipping rates for many items we sell are weight-based. The weight of any such item can be found on its detail page. To reflect the policies of the shipping companies we use, all weights will be rounded up to the next full pound.
