Air Screw Nozzle

last updated：May 23, 2026

Instant 100% complete water removal with air blow! The drying process becomes unnecessary, significantly shortening the interval.

This air nozzle can completely remove water from workpieces such as machine parts simply by air blowing. Since it can eliminate all moisture through air blowing, it achieves a "completely dry" state on the spot, making the drying process itself unnecessary. (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, this reduction in internal setup time (reduction of intervals) 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, thus removing the risk of foreign matter contamination from manual labor. - Suitable for various machine parts and line peripheral equipment that require disassembly for cleaning. - Achieves a stable cleaning and drying process that does not depend on operators, as well as a reduction in contamination risks. This contributes to stabilizing hygiene management required in food manufacturing, reducing recall risks, and ultimately ensuring trust with your business partners. This product significantly enhances 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 surface tension, do not get blown away but merely move along the surface. The key is not the strength of the wind, but the 'quality' of the air. Our air nozzle processes the air inside the nozzle, creating cut air. (Instead of continuous air, it emits air that is intermittently cut in bursts.) This cut air generates an instantaneous shock wave when it hits the water droplets. As a result, the surface tension of the droplets is broken, achieving complete water removal = complete drying. "Instant complete drying in any shape" Machine parts with many protrusions, grooves, and depressions tend to retain water, making complete drying difficult, let alone sufficient drying, with air blowing. However, our air nozzle demonstrates high effectiveness precisely on such shapes. The nozzle itself rotates and emits 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.

Applications/Examples of results

By utilizing subsidies and grants, it is possible to implement solutions for less than half the cost. Our company provides support for utilizing various subsidies and grants, such as the "Monozukuri Subsidy" and "New Business Development Subsidy." By leveraging these, it is possible to significantly reduce implementation costs. We will propose suitable utilization plans based on your company's situation and objectives. [Applications] - Reduction of internal setup time and improvement of production volume per hour In the cleaning and drying of machine parts during lot changes on food manufacturing lines, the drying process becomes unnecessary, dramatically reducing intervals. Additionally, it is possible to significantly cut down on labor costs and utility expenses associated with the drying process. - Reduction of contamination risks By using air-blow drying that does not allow moisture retention, we eliminate sources of hygiene risks such as allergens and foreign matter contamination. [Delivery Record] Morinaga Milk Industry, Myojo Foods, Fujitsu, Fujifilm HD, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Furukawa Electric, Nidec (formerly Nidec Sankyo), Asahi Kasei, Minebea Mitsumi, JFE Steel, Furukawa Battery, and others. - Numerous delivery records to food manufacturing companies (company names cannot be disclosed for confidentiality). - A wide range of delivery records from individual nozzles to cleaning machines (large and compact), both domestically and internationally.
