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.
Compressed air can advantageously be used in industry to move objects, either forward in the production process or, for example, to separate objects from each other. It can also be used to guide the product in the correct position. A big advantage of compressed air is that it does not need mechanical contact.
The air nozzle SILVENT MJ4-QS is easily mounted on the existing 4mm open pipe. The installation makes it possible to reduce energy consumption and also lower the sound level. A blowing application like this, with consistent flow, means the installation of an air nozzle makes a big cost reduction difference.
The air flow from the SILVENT 705 L air nozzle separates the aluminum sheets to ensure that the suction cups only lift one sheet at a time. If the sheets are not separated, there is a big risk that several sheets will be picked up at the same time, which creates problems later in the production process. The air nozzle thereby facilitates production and reduces the number of rejected products.
Industry: Textile and leather The company used blowing with compressed air to convey leather in the impregnation process. An air ramp of their own design using drilled holes was installed to perform the work. The existing solution was energy-intensive and caused pressure-drop problems, which affected the efficiency of the entire production.
Solution The custom SILVENT 300 air knife was designed by Silvent engineers to optimize the application. By adapting the blowing force, blowing pattern, blowing distance and blowing angle to suit the application, energy consumption and the sound level in production were both reduced. It was thus possible to improve conveying both in terms of economics and the work environment.
Result To reduce energy consumption and ensure a consistent blowing force, a Silvent custom air knife was installed. The air knife reduced turbulence, thus allowing the use of more of the air supply for efficient blowing. By using less air, it was also possible to rectify the pressure-drop problem, and this had a positive effect on other parts of production. In addition to energy savings, it was also possible to reduce the sound level in production.
Industry: Printing The company used an air ramp of its own design to move wallpaper forward through the manufacturing process. When guiding the wallpaper, it was important that it follow the roller to avoid problems and machine stoppages. Machine downtime due to production errors is both costly and inefficient.
Solution The custom SILVENT 300 air knife was designed by Silvent engineers to render the application more efficient. The air knife’s blowing force, blowing pattern, blowing distance and blowing angle were customized for the application to make sure the wallpaper was blown down onto the roller. Installing the custom air knife reduced the problems in the manufacturing process.
Result The installation of a Silvent air knife made it possible to improve wallpaper conveying. The air knife made sure the wallpaper was blown down onto the roller and guided along in the production process without any problems. This reduced the number of costly machine stoppages caused by torn paper. Thus, the company was able to work more efficiently.
