Air Knife Systems

Blower-driven solutions that increase production efficiencies and save significant running costs
Although Air Knife Systems powered by compressed-plant-air are used in a variety of industrial applications, blower-powered Air Knives are a proven cost-effective alternative reducing energy use by 70-95% for the majority of applications. In fact, compressed air is at its most inefficient when discharged into free air.
Powered by a centrifugal blower unit an Air Knife system is a low pressure, high volume air delivery tool designed specifically to blow-off all surface liquids/moisture and clean web materials, components and produce.
The ease of installation and low-energy consumption makes them an efficient, cost-effective solution providing significant savings over thermal and compressed air systems.
ACI air knife systems have a uniform slot design that projects an uninterrupted sheet of precisely controlled, high velocity air thereby supplying a powerful flow across the entire surface of the product being processed.
