Reduction of cleaning and drying processes for machine parts during lot changeover for food manufacturing.
Air Screw Nozzle
Instant 100% complete water removal with air blow! The drying process becomes unnecessary, significantly shortening internal setup time.
This air nozzle can completely dry workpieces such as machine parts simply by air blowing. Since all moisture can be removed through air blowing, it achieves a "completely dry" state on-site, eliminating the need for a drying process itself. (Patent technology) As a result, it is possible to instantly complete the cleaning and drying process of machine parts that inevitably occurs during lot changeovers in food manufacturing lines. In food manufacturing environments where diverse production and short delivery times are required, reducing this setup time (interval reduction) dramatically improves the production volume per hour for the entire line. - Complete drying reduces risks associated with allergen contamination and insufficient drying. - The need for wiping after cleaning is eliminated, removing the risk of foreign matter contamination from manual labor. - Ideal for various machine parts and line peripheral equipment that require disassembly for cleaning. Can be introduced without changing existing equipment. - Achieves a stable cleaning and drying state that does not depend on workers, contributing to the stabilization of hygiene management required in food manufacturing. This product dramatically improves both quality and production efficiency in food manufacturing.

basic information
Why can water be completely removed with just air blowing? Generally, it is thought that 'strong wind can remove water,' but this is actually a misconception. This is because water droplets smaller than 1mm, due to the influence of surface tension, do not get blown away but simply move across the surface. The key is not the strength of the wind, but the 'quality' of the air. Our air nozzle processes the air within the nozzle and creates cut air. (Instead of intermittent air, 'puff puff puff' cut air is ejected.) This cut air generates an instantaneous shock wave when it hits the water droplets. This shock breaks the surface tension of the droplets, achieving complete water removal = complete drying. "Instant complete drying of any shape" Machine parts with protrusions, grooves, and depressions tend to retain water, making complete drying difficult, if not impossible, with air blowing alone. However, our air nozzle demonstrates high effectiveness precisely on such shapes. The nozzle itself rotates and ejects cut air through rotational waves. It excels in the ability to scrape out moisture trapped inside grooves and depressions, ensuring the removal of residual water and achieving complete drying on the spot.

By utilizing subsidies, it is possible to implement solutions for less than half the cost at most. Our company also provides support and assistance for utilizing various subsidies. The amount and rate of subsidies vary depending on the type of subsidy used and the size of the company. We will propose the most suitable options for your company. [Applications] - Reduction of setup time and increase in production volume per hour In the food manufacturing line, during the switching of lots, the air-blow drying eliminates the need for a drying process, dramatically reducing the interval. - Reduction of allergen and foreign matter contamination risks The air-blow drying that does not allow moisture residue eliminates the source of sanitary risk itself.

■■■ 100% Water Removal and Complete Drying, the Only Air Nozzle ■■■ "Air Screw Nozzle" (Patent Obtained: Patent No. 6749741) An essential cleaning process in product manufacturing. Until now, there has been no air nozzle capable of completely blowing away water droplets that adhere to the workpiece after cleaning. In fact, the industry has come to accept the notion that "complete water removal with an air nozzle is impossible." However, our "Air Screw Nozzle" overturns that common belief. With our uniquely developed cutting air using rotational waves, it achieves 100% water removal from the workpiece after cleaning. This realizes "complete drying" and eliminates the need for drying processes using warm air or warm rooms after cleaning. Moreover, its power extends beyond just water removal. Stubborn dirt that has adhered, dust, and grime that has settled into scratches can gradually be removed with air blowing alone, without the need for water. (In some cases, degreasing or chemical cleaning may be necessary.) Additionally, it stands out from other nozzles in its ability to remove dust and chips. (Compatible with clean rooms) ★ You can watch a video of the actual water removal and air blowing process. Download the catalog now and see for yourself.
