General description

The MiniMan-100 is a compact flexible arm, which is ideal for 

all types of smaller dust and fume applications.

The arm is fitted with exterior friction joints (“ClearThru” 

design), which allows for maximum air velocity, low pressure 

drop and low noise level. The inner tubes are kept in place by 

a gas spring (standing arm) or a balancing strap (hanging 

arm). This design ensures smooth movement of the arm.
