Our air nozzles, air knives and air blow guns are designed to reduce sound levels and improve the efficiency of blowing with compressed air.
Blowing with compressed air is common in industry when cleaning, drying, cooling, sorting or transporting objects. Silvent air nozzles are used in fixed installations and make efficient use of compressed air. All Silvent air nozzles feature the optimal combination of high blowing force, low energy consumption and low noise levels.
Air knives are most commonly used to blow away liquids, grime, airborne debris, etc. from surfaces or objects. Silvent air knives create a broad and effective flow of air that produces a pneumatic scraping effect without mechanical contact. All Silvent air knives feature the optimal combination of high blowing force, low energy consumption and low noise levels.
Manual blowing with compressed air is common in industry when cleaning, drying or cooling objects. Silvent air blow guns make efficient use of compressed air. All Silvent air blow guns feature the optimal combination of high blowing force, low energy consumption and low noise levels, at the same time as they are ergonomically designed for professional use.
Some industries and processes need more blowing force than a regular air blow gun can generate. Therefore, Silvent has developed air blow guns with high blowing force. The blowing force ranges from twice as strong up to 30 times stronger than a regular air blow gun. All Silvent air blow guns are safe, quiet and efficient, and are developed for professional use.
The noise from compressed air valves is extremely hazardous, but equipping valve discharge ports with pneumatic mufflers often causes operational disturbances. Silvent pneumatic mufflers have integrated warning indicators. The technology basically entails that the pneumatic muffler itself sets the optimal combination of flow capacity and noise suppression thanks to the dynamic internal filter, which subsequently minimizes operational disturbances and eliminates clogging.
To optimize blowing, it is sometimes necessary to be able to make pressure or blowing angle adjustments, for example. In other cases protection against airborne debris may be needed. Silvent has different types of accessories for easily performing various blowing tasks, optimally and safely.
Sorting with moving machine parts is common in industry. This entails a great risk of injury, which can advantageously be replaced by blowing with compressed air.
The SILVENT X07 air nozzle effectively removes deviating products from the conveyer. Since it does not require any mechanical movements, sorting can take place at a higher speed, which results in a more efficient production process.
Industry: Chemical and pharmaceutical The Company used blowing with compressed air to simply and efficiently remove bottles that did not contain the correct amount of fluid. The bottles that did not meet the weight requirement were removed using compressed air blowing. The original solution used an open pipe for blowing with compressed air, which was not only energy-intensive, but also inefficient.
Solution Installing the SILVENT 971 F air nozzle reduced energy consumption and improved the performance of the application. The SILVENT 971 F air nozzle is fitted with flow control, which allowed the company to adjust the blowing force. Thus, the company was able to test regulate the blowing force until it was optimized for their particular application. This meant no more air than necessary was used, which reduced consumption and sound levels alike.
Result To streamline the removal process and reduce the use of compressed air, the American company installed an air nozzle. The flat air nozzle provided a wider blowing pattern and thus a wider contact area, which made removing the bottles easier. The nozzle also used compressed air more efficiently than the open pipe, which allowed the same work to be done with lower compressed air consumption.
Industry: Machine manufacturers The company used compressed air to position the components correctly in the vibrating feeder. Blowing with compressed air was used at several places in the feeder to make sure the components were in the right position when they left it. They were using open pipe blowing equipment, which generates inefficient, turbulent flows and high sound levels.
Solution The SILVENT X01 air nozzle provided a directed, concentrated jet that streamlined the component feed. Thanks to the unique technology of the air nozzle, it was also possible to reduce the sound level and use the compressed air more efficiently. This not only had a positive effect on production, but also improved the work environment for the operators.
Result By installing an air nozzle that reduces turbulence, it was possible to lower the sound level when blowing with compressed air. The air nozzle also gave better blowing coverage, which helped when positioning the components, thus rendering the application more efficient.
