ACI Air knife Systems are a cleaning, drying and cooling device used in both manufacturing and other processes. By creating a high intensity, balanced sheet of laminar airflow across the entire length of a component, an air knife has the ability to clean, dry or cool components, webs and conveyors manufacturers..
The number of manufacturing applications suitable for manufacturer of air knives is bewildering. Typically they are used for cleaning, drying and cooling any type of surface ranging from cans and bottles to textiles and extrusions.
Examples:
• Removing residue water from bottles and cans prior to product labelling, professional ink jet coding and packing operations.
• In conveying systems air knives are used on continuously produced parts or products. In the Cement Industry ACI air knives can be used to remove dust and gravel from the conveyor. Rubber extrusion used in making professional seals for car professional doors and windows require a dip in hot salt potassium nitrate to give it a gloss. An air knife can be used to blow off the excess salt to restore the gloss.
• They can be used to remove viscous contaminants from a surface. Cutting grease used in the production of threaded metal rods can be blown away by an air knife.

| ITW Vortec's Professional curtain Transvectors® are air professional amplifiers, which use a small amount of compressed air to produce a strong, high velocity, laminar sheet of air. Ionizing versions of the industrial air knives effectively neutralize static while providing a powerful blowoff to remove accumulated dust, scrap, particles and contaminants on surfaces and finished products. The airflow delivers positive and negative ions to the surface to kill static cling to improve cleaning. Available for a broad range of manufacturing operations, the Curtain Transvectors® efficiently handle high-speed drying applications and clean wide areas such as wood panels, laminates, sheets, professional films and other large objects or flat surfaces. The patented design significantly outperforms similar products in reduced noise levels and providing excellent uniformity of airflow. Compact and easy to install, Curtain Transvectors® have no moving parts, provide instant on/off, and are offered in various lengths. Stainless steel models are available, ideal for applications where purity, high temperature or corrosive environments are concerned. |

Nex Flow™ air blade™ industrial air knives are superior to competitive units for the following reasons:
- All our air knives are full flow which means they can be put end to end for continuous flow and takes up less space in tight areas. Even one competitor's so-called full-flow standard answer to our Nex Flow™ standard air blade air knife is not nearly as efficient as ours by their own published values and is only a small, flimsy version in comparison.
- All our air knives come with a stainless steel shim to maintain the gap for the pneumatics to exit. Many companies use plastic shims which may be "squeezed" for uneven flow but more important, no matter how clean you make the compressed air line, the plastic will wear. Plastic shims is one of the biggest complaints customers have with air knives - Nex Flow™ however uses stainless steel shims as a standard in all air knives.
- Easy mounting. Some air knife designs are difficult to mount requiring them to be taken apart, often effecting flow and making the job of mounting more difficult. All Nex Flow™ air knives have convenient mounting holes.
- All Nex Flow™ aluminum air knives are anodized while many competitors do virtually nothing to the aluminum for protection. In fact, if you want any better protection they try to get you to by more costly stainless steel when simple anodizing is less costy and already "standard" with Nex Flow™.
- Flexibility in connections. Except for the very short lengths, both standard and X-stream™ versions have compressed air ports at the ends and the back for flexible choice in air input. |

The manufacturer of air knives are used on the production units to eliminate quickly and economically the impurities or moisture from the products manufactured and treated on these lines. One still often uses the pneumatics for this purpose. Among all the uses of the compressed air, most ineffective is however blowing. Few users realize of the high power consumption and the exorbitant cost of the compressed air.
The air knives have important advantages in comparison with other systems of drying:
- Optimized Energy consumption
- Reduction of the maintenance costs
- Easy Installation thanks to their compact construction
There exist several system requirements of drying ACI, according to the product to be dried. This flexibility makes it possible to use the systems of drying in the most various sectors:
- Industries of bottling and racking
- Agribusiness industry
- Auto industry

Cooling is obtained by two physical actions:
Convective cooling = heat exchange between product and air.
Evaporative cooling = removal of water from the product.
Cooling/drying is achieved on the cross and counter-current principle,
depending on the number of belts.
Cold/hot air flows from below through the product bed transversely to the
running direction of the conveyor belts suppliers. While passing, the air becomes
hot and creates a gentle drying/ cooling without causing the pellets
to crack.
Due to the modular design the professional belt units can be arranged so as
to maximize the required process technology. |

In the field of drying, Piovan has developed the application of an innovative technology: the use of a rotor with a honeycomb structure to eliminate the humidity released by plastic material during the drying process.
This brand-new series, presented for the first time at the K2007 show, consists of four models that operate in a temperature range from 80 to 150°C, with air flows from 50 to 200 m³/h: HR50, HR100, HR150 and HR200.
The new HR professional dryers present numerous advantages such as:
• No expense for the connection of cooling water or compressed air and no running costs for such services because the HR units require only electric manufacturer of power supply;
• 50% reduction of the use of energy;
• Stable Dew Point, featuring set-up values in a range down to -50°C;
• Easy access to all machine components allowing Simplified maintenance
• Guaranteed absence of dust and of material contamination, making the HR dryers suitable for application in the medical and optical sectors too;
• Continuity of operation of the honeycomb rotor ensured by the new drive mechanism furnished with a wear-resistant Kevlar reinforced belt which eliminates traditional maintenance operations or lubrication, necessary when using rudimental belts or chains.

Whether the product is a wet powder or a slurry, specially designed feeders transfer the product into the dispersion section of the professional dryer. A high speed rotor disperses the product in the drying zone. An induced hot gas stream as high as 600 °C provides the energy for instantaneous evaporation of the moisture within the feed material. Evaporation capacity of the largest unit is over 6000 kg/hr. Dried particles enter the classifying zone at the top of the dryer and fine de-agglomerated particles leave the dryer outlet to be collected down stream. Coarse particles are rejected by the classifier and are returned to the dispersion zone for further processing.

Temperature control of the exhaust air from the drier permits careful, rapid treatment of products in the form of dust, powder, industrial crystals, grains, fibres or even pastes, which can be carried in the air.
ALLGAIER dispersion driers are also suitable for the total evaporation or drying of solutions, suspensions and pastes. In such cases, the liquid is sprayed directly into the drying space and the result is a powder with a very uniform grain size. |
|
ALLGAIER drum driers are used particularly in the minerals industry, for drying pourable and abrasive wet materials.
