A compact dust removal system that can be mounted on a substantially rigid receptacle, such as a pail, found at construction sites. The compact dust removal system includes an array of cyclonic separators of different sizes disposed within a mesh filter. The system can be mountable to a pail such that an initial dust removal stage occurs by inertial separation along the interior surface of the pail. The system further includes a cyclone inlet manifold configured to distribute dust-laden air among the cyclonic separators at least partially based on the size of dust particles within the dust-laden air.

Dust removal system

A cutting apparatus includes a cutting tool and a collection assembly designed for diverting, collecting and disposing dust generated during the cutting process. The apparatus includes a cutting tool, a collection assembly together with an optional dust separator and/or collection container. The air stream generated around the blade of the cutting tool during operation diverts the generated dust particulates into the collection assembly of the cutting tool. The air stream can also transport the dust into the dust separator which transfers the dust into the collection container, when present. Optionally, the collection container further includes an air filtration assembly for storing and disposing the dust.
