Hello,
Would it make any difference to the efficiency of your dust collector if you seperated the blower from the dust bag and filter, mounted the blower close to your machine’s and had the bag/filter mounted remotely at the end of a length of the pipe.
Regards.

I'm fairly certain that there is no difference in the efficiency of the system, and there is one significant drawback: with the blower at the machines all of the ductwork would be pressurized, any leaks in the system, or an open gate at another machine, will be blowing out the chips and dust.
