What Is an Air Knife?
An air knife is a device that utilizes compressed air to clear away residues, floating dust, dirt, moisture, and other contaminants from products on a conveyor.
These devices generate a high-velocity air stream using compressed air, allowing for effective cleaning without direct contact. Air knives have diverse applications, including drying, blow-off, and cooling.
They are employed in various scenarios, such as draining water from beverage bottles or cans post-cleaning, and removing cuttings and dust.
Additionally, a donut-shaped variant uses a rotating disc-shaped blade and a miniature air compressor for precise cutting tasks.
