Description
AIRMASTERS Air knife for powerful blowing!
The AIRMASTERS air knife has been developed to perfection in its aerodynamic design. The air knife produces an efficient, uniform and spatula-like blow, which creates a pneumatic scraping effect without mechanical contact.
The AIRMASTERS air knife has the highest possible flow amplification factor and is extremely quiet.
All AIRMASTERS air knives utilize the “Coanda” effect, which allows outside air to be added to the air flow in addition to the compressed air. This results in efficient and quiet blowing with minimal compressed air consumption. AIRMASTERS air knives use only 30% of the compressed air compared to open pipes or air deflectors.
