Air Knives

KJN Enterprises offers Air Knife. This compressed air knife finds a wide range of applications in many industries, particularly to replace drilled pipes, or rows of nozzles used for blow-off, cleaning, drying or cooling. This air knife produces a "laminar" flow of air along its length using the "Coanda" effect, which "entrains" a large volume of air from the surrounding area along with the small amount of compressed air from the silent air knife to produce an output flow up to 30x. This helps to reduce both compressed air consumption and noise levels compared to drilled pipes or rows of nozzles. Typical applications: automotive - removes water, coolant, dust and scrap in parts manufacturing and in assembly operations, and are used to cool parts; bottling - blow-off of water prior to labelling, palletising or packaging, moving light materials, open and close packaging lids or tops; chemicals - blow-off of chemicals or water prior to labelling or packaging as with bottling operations; food - removes 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; and general manufacturing - part ejection, air curtain barrier, dust and liquid blow-off from all types of parts; and ideal for replacing fans in some cooling operations. Besides, also in metals, paper and lumber, plastic, printing, and pharmaceutical and textile industries.
