Patented Root Cyclone™
technology
Dyson Vacuum Cleaners
have no loss of suction.
|
All floor performance
Dyson Vacuum Cleaners
have excellent pick up on all
floor surfaces, not just carpet.
|
No extra costs
Dyson Vacuum Cleaners
have lifetime HEPA and
washable filters, and no bags to buy.
|
Cleaner exhaust air
Dyson uprights are certified asthma & allergy friendly™ by the Asthma
and Allergy Foundation of America.
The air expelled from a
Dyson vacuum has up to 150 times less bacteria and mold than the air you
breathe.

Testing &
Development

Development testing
At
Dyson, they work towards one idea:
that everyday objects can be made to work better. Its an obsession
with the Dyson Vacuum Cleaner engineers.
As a result, the Dyson
Vacuum Cleaner engineers are never completely satisfied, not even with
their own
machines, so they test and analyze them rigorously. For example,
their
microbiology lab grows and studies bacteria, mould and dust mites to
discover better ways of removing them from your home. |

From
idea to prototype
The results from
development testing are used to improve the design of the next
generation of Dyson
Vacuum Cleaner machines. Thousands of prototypes are built to
refine the improvements one at a time, starting with hand-made
cardboard models. Later, complex selective laser sintering tools
build fully functional prototypes for testing in our laboratories. |

Reliability testing
Finally, every cleaner is subjected
to a battery of endurance tests to ensure that its as durable as a
Dyson should be. At our test facility in Wiltshire,
Dyson Vacuum Cleaners are
pushed, pulled, dropped, frozen, baked and shaken. We also have five
vacuum cleaner assault courses where the most demanding test of all
human use puts machines through their paces, with 28,000 hours of
punishment doled out every month. |

| The
Dyson Vacuum Cleaner Story |
| |
 |
James Dyson
You know the feeling when some everyday product lets you down. 'I
could have designed this better myself', you think. But how many of
us turn our thoughts into actions?
James Dyson does.
He is a man who likes to make things work better. With his research
team he has developed products that have achieved sales of over $6
billion worldwide. |

Risk
An inventor pays substantial fees to renew patents every year.
Though he brushed with bankruptcy during the development years, for
James, it was money well spent.
In 1999, after a lengthy court battle, Hoover was found guilty of
infringing James’ patent. Other manufacturers, unable or unwilling
to develop their own vacuum cleaners, still try to copy Dyson
technology to no avail.
James and his engineers develop
inventions, but also improve existing
Dyson technology.
They’re rather fastidious. Dyson machines now have smaller multiple
cyclones, which create greater centrifugal forces, capturing more
microscopic dust.
Dust you can’t see. |

All Change

Another problem to solve with
Dyson Vacuum Cleaners: normal upright vacuum cleaners have fixed
wheels, running on a fixed axle.
They only move in straight lines. Like a buggy. A Dyson Ball™
machine is different. It rides on a ball, pivoting on a single point,
allowing it to go in any direction.

Carbon Free - Dyson
Vacuum Cleaners
Conventional electric motors haven’t changed much in 100 years.
Bulky and fragile. The brushes wear down and emit carbon dust.
The Dyson Vacuum Cleaner digital motor works differently.
Dyson Vacuum Cleaners
controlled by microchip it spins at 88,000 rpm – five-times faster
than a Formula 1 car engine. Because of its speed, the digital motor
is half the size and half the weight of conventional motors. With no
brushes or fixed magnets, it doesn’t emit carbon either. |

The James Dyson
Foundation
Sadly, engineering is often only seen as repairing, which is
possibly why fewer young people choose it as a career.
For James, engineering is about invention and technology.
The James Dyson Foundation runs workshops where students solve
engineering challenges in a practical, hands-on way. |
