Jet Stream - Fan Driven Air Curtain / Knife
The Meech Air Technology Jet Stream fan driven air knife system provides the ultimate solution for cost effective product drying, swarf removal or cooling.

 
  APPLICATIONS:  
 
  • Bottle/can drying
  • Drying of food produce
  • Drying of machined parts
  • Swarf removal from machined parts
  • Drying printed circuit boards
  • Drying extrusions
 
   
 

Can/Bottle Drying
Jet Stream manifolds direct air on to all surfaces of the can/bottle providing efficient drying to allow successful labelling and stopping corrosion before packaging. This improves overall product quality.

 
     
  DIMENSIONS:  
   
 

How it works:
The Jet Stream System is powered by a high pressure fan unit that provides air to the unique “Tear Drop” profile manifold/s. The laminar blade of air is then accurately directed, with minimal air turbulence, through a preset slot in the manifold on to the target.

 
     
  FEATURES AND BENEFITS:  
 
Fan driven Savings over compressed air
"Tear Drop" manifold Minimized air turbulence
Higher "weight" of air Superior performance
No moving parts No moving parts
Low noise levels Operator comfort
