• Drying
  Blow off used for drying and other uses when it is impossible to hand dry parts.
• Cleaning
  High velocity air can clean sensitive parts and avoid marring to critically sensitive materials.
• Cooling
  Cool off materials during the manufacturing process when water or other coolants are not practical.
• Heating
  Controlled heat for drying and other processes.
• Anti-static
  Assure quality and reduce rejection rates by using forced air to dissipate electric charges.
• Food and Beverage

Using Air Knives for Heating

If your products' drying performance can be enhanced by raising the temperature of the air applied to the product consider using a heat-enhansed air knife solution.  You can prolong or reduce cure time by using an air knife equipped with a heater.  The heat can be controlled to provide a fixed temperature or be adjustable from just a few degrees above room temperature up to 450°F.

Heated air knife applications include: Curing Ink or Coatingings , Food Processing, Bag Opening, Maintaining glued surface temperature until application is complete, and Heat Release.

Typical velocities to achieve good results are 10,000 to 28,000 ft./min.
