What is The Gen4® Super Ion Air Knife?
EXAIR's Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife offers 34% improved performance at low pressures allowing you to achieve the same or better results, which saves compressed air and money. Gen4 Super Ion Air Knives remove static electricity from plastics, webs, sheet stock and other product surfaces where tearing, jamming or hazardous shocks are a problem. The laminar sheet of air sweeps surfaces clean of static, particulate, dust and dirt. Production speeds, product quality, and surface cleanliness can improve dramatically.
Why The Gen4® Super Ion Air Knife?
The Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife floods an area or surface with static eliminating ions - up to 20 feet (6.1m) away. A uniform airfl ow across its length will not cause misalignments to critical surfaces such as webs. Force can be adjusted from a “blast” to a “breeze”. The Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife is electrically powered, is shockless and has no moving parts. It also requires only 3.7 SCFM of compressed air per foot of length at 5 PSIG (105 SLPM per 300mm of length at 0.3 BAR). Sound level is surprisingly quiet at 50 dBA for most applications
The Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife eliminates the static charge on labels being applied to PET soft drink bottles.
The Model 112118 18" (457mm) Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife System eliminates dust from body care products prior to sealing the boxes in cellophane.
Bumpers, car bodies and fascia are cleaned of dust and fibers prior to painting.
