Air Knives

Raico Engineers offers Air Knife. This is the new gold standard in air knife with curtain blow-off technology. Coated aluminium and stainless steel can reduce noise levels up to 10% and air consumption from 40% to 90% by replacing drilled pipe and open jets. It is possible to reduce both compressed air consumption and noise levels with the easy to mount and maintain silent air knife. The silent 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 and output flow 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. Typical applications: replaces drilled pipes, or rows of nozzles used for blow-off, cleaning, drying or cooling. Examples: automotive - removes water, coolant, dust, and scrap in parts manufacturing/assembly operations; can be used to cool parts. Bottling: blow off of water prior to labelling, palletising or packaging; moving light materials; and open and close packaging lids or tops. Similar applications are found in almost all industry segments.
