ITW Vortec's patented blowoff nozzles and jets are all designed to substantially reduce compressed air consumption, compared to open jets. Using an air amplification principle, the design allows air to accelerate, entraining free surrounding air as it exits. The result is a powerful and precise airflow that consumes less compressed air and saves energy costs.
Patented Air Amplifying Design Reduces Compressed Air Consumption
Compressed air through open copper tubes was the method being used by a wood slotwall manufacturer to clean each slot of excessive sawdust, until an OSHA inspection resulted in a noise violation. The company replaced the tubes with quiet model 1201 Nozzles reducing noise and air consumption.
After a die-punching step, an injection molder of plastic gas cans uses the powerful thrust of a model 901D Transvector Jet to knock out the slug which creates the molded-in handle.
A company-wide conversion from open tube blowoffs to ITW Vortec Nozzles and Jets at the largest US producer of aluminium cans resulted in impressive compressed air savings.
Applications:
All air nozzles and jets are not the same. ITW Vortec's Nozzles and Jets amplify airflow volume up to 25 times more than the compressed air supplied. The result is less compressed air usage to deliver the same or greater thrust performance. Perfect for all types of blowoff, cooling and drying applications, these Nozzles and Jets are available in a variety of low and high thrust models. Use them to meet OSHA compliance as they meet OSHA specifications for noise and dead-end pressure. Additionally, Vortec Nozzles and Jets deliver a very precise airflow making them ideal for parts movement and ejection.
