Air Flow Blade / Air Wipe System

Call for price

The Air Wipe System produces a “laminar” Flow of air along its 360º angle 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 Ring-Blade Air Wipe System air-saver wiper-blade to produce an output flow up to 30 times.

Pay back on compressed air savings can be as soon as a few weeks in some applications when compared to nozzle “rings” or simple annular slots used by other air wiping systems.

Air Wipe Circular Air Knife blow off, clean, cool and dry cables, pipes, extrusions, hoses, wires and ropes. Air Wipe Circular Air Knife is easy to mount and maintain and reduces both compressed air consumption and noise levels.Air Wipe or Ring Blade – Circular Air Knife is available in aluminium or stainless steel 316L.

Air Flow Blade Compressed Air Wipe Systems are available in 12 standard (inside) diameters: 3/8”, ½” 1″, 2”, 3″, 4″, 5”, 6″, 7”, 9”, 11”. Special diameters are also available on special request. Ring-Blade Compressed Air Wipe Systems come with a standard .002″ outlet gap which will work for 90% of all applications encountered. If greater force is required, a second .004″ shim may be installed to open the gap for greater flow. Material of construction: Coated Aluminium & Stainless Steel

  • Air Jets

    <div class="airmaster"> Air Jets are a type of Air Amplifiers. Air Jets are larger than nozzles and used when a wider area needs to be hit with the amplified air. Air Jets are significantly more efficient than nozzles although often use as much compressed air. These Air Jets are best used to replace pairs of nozzles that are used for part ejection or for blow-off applications that require greater force than that provided by air knives or air movers. Airmasters Air Jets are all made adjustable with a lock ring to assure the security of any gap setting. They have a female 1/8” NPT and made lightweight with anodized aluminum. Four Different sizes of Air Jets are manufactured with two types of materials, Brass and Stainless Steel. AJ0001B & AJ0002B are the high force jets in Brass and AJ0001S & AJ0002S are the high force jets in Stainless Steel. Model AJ0001B / AJ0002B / AJ0001S / AJ0002S High Flow Air Jet are physically the same size. The only difference is a larger exit opening for the amplified air flow. The high flow system is used more for cooling and light blowoff while the high force version is used mainly for heavier blowoff applications. The Sound level for Model AJ0001B / AJ0001S is 80 dBA and for the Model AJ0002B / AJ0002S is 82 dBA at 3ft (0.91mm) at 80 psig (5.6 bar). The AJ0001B / AJ0002B Brass Air Jet and AJ0001S / AJ0002S Stainless Steel Air jet are marked to indicate the size of the air gap and can be easily set and locked into place <div><img src="https://www.agency09.co/staging/aceflow/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/airjet_model.jpg" /></div> </div> <div class="trial-btn"><a class="trigger" href="#" type="button">Download Brochure</a></div>

  • Airmasters AIR FLOW VAC – AIR CONVEYOR

    <div class="airmaster"> The AIR FLOW VAC Compressed Air Conveying System utilizes compressed air for a powerful, efficient venturi action along its length in a compact design for high capacity conveying over large distances. Available in both coated aluminium or high temperature stainless steel.Simply clamp a standard hose size to each end of the AIR FLOW VAC or AIR CONVEYOR to create this high energy conveying system. No moving parts for maintenance free operation with capacity and flow controlled with a pressure regulator. The AIR FLOW VAC or AIR CONVEYOR System is available in 3/8” (9.5 mm), 1/2” (12.7mm), 3/4” (19 mm), 1" (25mm), 1-1/4" (32mm), 1-1/2" (38mm), 2" (51mm), 2-1/2" (64mm), 3" (76mm), 4“ (101.6mm) and 5“ (127 mm) sizes Any size beyond that can be prohibitive for most applications due to high compressed air requirements. In addition, beyond 5", the vacuum ability begins to drop significantly except for highly intermittent applications. For applications beyond 3", a blower system often becomes far more economical except in a rare number of possible applications. </div> <div class="trial-btn"><a class="trigger" href="https://www.agency09.co/staging/aceflow/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/AIR_FLOW_VAC_AIR_CONVEYOR.pdf" type="button">Download Brochure</a></div>

  • Air Knives

    <div class="airmaster"> Airmasters Energy Saving Air Curtain also known as “Air Knives” provides an efficient laminar sheet of air for wide area cleaning and drying applications. Since Air Knives are a type of air amplifiers, they use a small amount of 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. Airmasters Air Knives are the perfect replacements for drilled or slotted lengths of pipe. In addition, the Air Knives offers up to 70% compressed air savings when compared to the drilled pipes. Stainless Steel models are ideal for food, pharmaceutical, chemical and other applications where purity, high temperatures or corrosive environments are concerned. Airmaster Air Knives increase thrust and velocity, reduced noise, excellent uniformity, and significantly outperforms any competing, wide blowoff device. <h5>Use of Shims</h5> Airmaster uses ONLY stainless steel shims in their Air Knife products as plastic shims wear out over time and require replacement, even with relatively clean air systems. Stainless steel shims are .002” (.050 mm). In most application this is adequate. However, velocity and force can be increased approximately 30% by adding a second .002” (.050 mm) shim. Shims may be stacked up to 5 sets. If using three or more sets however, the air inlets at the “ends” should be used to maintain even flow along the Air Knife system. Otherwise a slight d op in pressure and flow will occur across from the rear inlet ports if they are usedwith three or more shims Note that noise levels and air use will go up with an increased number of shims. </div> <div class="trial-btn"><a class="trigger" href="https://www.agency09.co/staging/aceflow/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/AIR-KNIFE.pdf" type="button">Download Brochure</a></div>
