Air Knives are air amplifiers, using a small amount of filtered compressed air to deliver a powerful, high velocity, laminar sheet of air over wide areas such as moving webs, film, sheets, strips, auto bodies and other large assemblies and objects.

These knives add a static neutralizing bar, to discharge static to clean surfaces of dust, shavings and debris more effectively. The static neutralizing bar generates positive and negative charged ions that are carried to the target in a uniform sheet of amplified air. Ionizing Air Knives kill the static build up that can attract dust and contaminants that ruin a painted or coated surface; and stop static discharges which can damage electronic equipment and shock personnel.

BENEFITS

More uniform blow off of large surfaces than nozzles or jets
Dries surfaces quickly and thoroughly
Costs significantly less than fans or blowers
Inherently safe, with no guards or rotating equipment
Reduced compressed air usage, versus open nozzles
Easily controlled output
Quiet – meets OSHA requirements
No electrical connections at the target site
Easily mounted and moved
Give a cleaner surface for painting or coating

FEATURES

25 times air amplification over compressed air input
High performance, patented design gives high thrust
Interchangeable shims enable air flow to be adjusted for the specific application
Ionizing Air Knives available in lengths of 6, 12, 18 and 24 inches (152, 305, 457, 610 mm)
Single compressed air inlet up to 12 inch (305 mm) length; dual inlet on longer models
Instant on/off
No moving parts; no maintenance
Quiet – meets OSHA noise specifications

AI Overview BETA

Vortec Air Knives use a small amount of filtered compressed air to create a high-velocity sheet that cleans and dries broad surfaces. Their air-amplifier design boosts input air 25 times, spreading it as a uniform flow across wide areas. For surfaces being painted or coated, ionizing models send charged ions with the airflow to dislodge dust and debris.

Patented design delivers high thrust
Interchangeable shims adjust airflow for each application
Ionizing models come in four available lengths
Single inlet through 12-inch length; longer models have dual inlets
Quiet operation meets OSHA noise specifications
