Air Knife - Air-Blade™ Blow-Off System - 1

Coated Aluminum and Stainless Steel Air-Blades can reduce noise levels up to 10%and air consumption from 40% to 90% by replacing drilled pipe & open jets. Reduce both compressed air consumption and noise levels with the easy to mount and maintain Air-Blade Air Knife. The Air-Bladeٙ Air Knife produces a laminarӔ flow of air along its length using the CoandaԔ effect which entrainsӔ a large volumeof air from the surrounding area along with the small amount of compressed air from the Air-Blade Air Knife to produce and outputflow up to 30 times.Payback on compressed air savings can be as soon as a few weeks in some applications. Typical applications replace drilled pipe, or rows of nozzles used for blow-off, cleaning, drying or cooling. Automotive: Remove water, coolant, dust, and scrap in parts manufacturing and in assembly operations. Can be used to cool parts. Bottling: Blow off of water prior to labeling, palletizing or packaging. Moving light materials. Open and close packaging lids or tops. Chemicals: Blow off of chemicals or water prior to labeling or packaging as with bottling operations. Food: Remove water from product or packaging. Control application of some materials to the food product such as sugar, icing etc.Open pouches in bagging operations. Dry food. General Manufacturing: Part ejection, air curtain barrier, dust and liquid blow off from all types of parts. Ideal for replacing fans insome cooling operations. Metals: Coolant and other liquid removal on process lines from Aluminum, Steel, Brass or other materials. Dry metals prior to otheroperations such as plating or polishing. Cool metal parts prior to coating or painting. Paper & Lumber: Paper dust removal and control. Dust removal from plywood and panel board. Plastic: Dust and scrap blow off. Cool off molten plastic in dip molding. Printing: Cooling to set some inks, scrap blow off, hold down labels prior to printing, cool adhesives to allow faster speeds in labelapplications and binding operations. Pharmaceutical: Remove liquid prior to labeling or packaging waste removal from solid materials. Textile: Cleaning and drying of cloth or other materials. > ? The Air-Bladeٙ Air Knife is made of an anodized aluminum body and a hard-anodized capӔ. Stainless steel models are available for high temperature and corrosive applications.? Multiple mounting features from either the back or the ends in a compact design.? Airflow amplification of approximately 30:1 compared to 3:1 for drilled pipe or open jets and tubes.? Instant on-off with no moving parts, no electricity or explosion hazard. ? Longer life in difficult environments than other models.? Flexible mounting options and easy to fit in small places.? Energy reduction in compressed air use up to 90% and noise reductions of 10 dbA. ? Maintenance free with output easily controlled, safe to use. >

The Air-Bladeٙ Air Knife is available in eight standard lengths: 3" (76mm), 6" (150mm), 8 (203mm), 12" (300mm), 18" (457mm), 24"(609.5mm), 30" (761mm) and 36" (914mm). Special lengths are available on special order including lengths combining several units. The Air-Bladeԙ Air Knife comes with a standard machined .002" (.05mm) outlet gap which will work for 90% of all applicationsencountered. If greater force is required, a .002" (.05mm) shim may be installed to open the gap for greater flow.Materials of construction are either coated aluminum or high temperature stainless steel.
