If the blower's capacity does not match the length and opening of the air knife, proper water drainage drying cannot be achieved. Sonic Corporation is the leading manufacturer that can consistently provide products ranging from blowers to air knives and other accessories. For over 30 years, we have been working with food and beverage manufacturers on the eternal theme of "water drainage drying," and our achievements are recognized worldwide. We have solved water drainage drying issues for various shapes of workpieces, including cans, bottles, PET bottles, and retort pouches. This case study focuses on the water drainage drying of PET bottles.

【Sonaer】Ultrasonic Spray Nozzle Ultrasonic vibrations generated by piezoelectric ceramics are transmitted to the spray nozzle (atomizer/nebulizer), where they vibrate the liquid film. This vibration forms fine particles for spraying (atomization/application). Unlike conventional spray nozzles, the liquid is supplied without pressure. "No pressurized liquid" means "no splatter or rebound," resulting in no waste of the applied liquid and eliminating the need for large booths. This case study involves fuel cells.

What is that marking on the multi-channel jet? A quick reference guide you can understand at a glance! 【Lechler】 Lechler Air Nozzle (Multi-Channel Jet) As you may know, Lechler is Europe's number one manufacturer of spray nozzles, producing and selling not only air nozzles but also liquid spray nozzles and approximately 45,000 types of spray nozzles, air nozzles, and accessories. All of these products are managed under German model numbers. Due to the very long sequence of numbers (with letters), we have established Japanese model numbers specifically for air nozzles. Even though it has been several decades since their launch, we still receive inquiries like, "What is this number?" Therefore, we have created a quick reference guide for air nozzles (multi-channel jets). Please take a moment to review it. It will be immediately clear what that model number corresponds to. If you have any questions or inquiries, please feel free to contact our staff.

【Secomak】Video on the settings of the air amplifier (ring jet) Seeing is believing! Rush towards the outlet along the Coanda shape! The center of the chamber becomes low pressure, attracting a large amount of surrounding air into the chamber, resulting in a high-speed and large volume of mixed air being discharged (blown out). The air amplifier (ring jet) we handle can be used not only for general cooling and transport with compressed air but also in hazardous areas. Additionally, because there are no moving parts, it can be processed safely and at low cost. The amount of air discharged quietly and efficiently is approximately 22 times that of the air discharged from a compressor. The standard model is made of aluminum. There are a total of 7 types, and the discharged air volume can range from 221m³/h to a maximum of 2000m³/h.

We have added a demo video of the ultrasonic spray nozzle manufactured by Sonaer. This addition features a system check video for the ultrasonic spray nozzle used for internal coating of blood collection tubes and vials. Sonaer, in collaboration with a partner company in the UK, manufactures and sells internal coating equipment for blood collection tubes and vials.

Lechler GmbH, a member of the EGCS (Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems) association, provides spray nozzles and mist separators for scrubber systems on vessels operating worldwide. It has been several years since the International Maritime Organization (IMO) strengthened regulations on sulfur oxide emissions from ships. However, the reality is that many existing vessels have not yet been equipped with scrubbers. Lechler utilizes its accumulated expertise in exhaust gas desulfurization systems to design, propose, and sell spray nozzles and mist separators for ships. Additionally, if needed, a web conference with a manufacturer representative can be arranged. *Our staff will provide interpretation. We would appreciate it if you could take the time to read this matter.

The trend towards decarbonization is becoming mainstream now. However, there are still many places that require high-efficiency flue gas desulfurization systems. It is currently difficult to invest in existing systems, not new projects. Therefore, we would like to introduce a very unique spray nozzle. Particularly in Europe and the United States, there are many flue gas desulfurization systems that use this type of spray nozzle, and they are continuously in use. Since it is a ceramic spray nozzle, its lifespan is longer than that of conventional iron-based nozzles. Additionally, various connection methods are available, including flange type, screw type, and lamination type. By using existing spray piping and simply replacing that section, the droplets become smaller than those from single-orifice nozzles, making it effective.

【Lechler】Lechler's ultra-compact rotary tank cleaning nozzle We have uploaded a video of the cleaning test of the inner surface of the container using the ultra-compact rotary tank cleaning nozzle, which seemed to exist but did not, to our company's YouTube channel. The video provided by the manufacturer was for demonstration purposes and featured a tank with a very large diameter, making it difficult to convey the image. This video shows the cleaning of the interior of a plastic container that has been inverted. The pressure is very low at 0.2 MPa, but it rotates vigorously and effectively removes dirt from the inner surface with coarse particles. (This test uses tap water.) Advantages/Features of the tank cleaning nozzle: - Prevention of accidents caused by manual work - Fewer mechanical parts, making nozzle maintenance easy - Reduction of maintenance time (automatic cleaning function, reduction of manual work time) - Reduction of running costs (energy saving, reduction of cleaning solution, reduction of labor/operating time) - Easier maintenance tasks such as removal, allowing for more functional cleaning compared to fixed spray balls - Recommended pressure range is low at 0.1 to 1 MPa

【Sonic】Sonic Corporation's Blower & Air Knife System Sonic Corporation's methodology for water removal and drying involves generating a large volume of air with the blower, which creates speed (air velocity) at the air knife outlet to achieve water removal, drying, and blowing away foreign substances. In short, the concept is that 'Speed (air velocity)' = 'Pressure (impact force)'. While it is often compared to compressed air, generating the same air volume with a compressor requires about four times the power. This means that the running costs would be approximately four times higher compared to Sonic Corporation's blower. Therefore, we recommend the use of blowers for water removal and drying on conveyor lines. Depending on the initial costs, the return on investment (ROI) can be recovered quickly when considering these running costs. Currently, with the push for decarbonization, it is essential to review electricity usage. The water removal and drying process is an indispensable application within factories. Would you consider this during your review of processes? This case study involves the water removal and drying after cleaning pallets for contact lenses.

Would you like to consider "energy saving, reduction of spraying liquid, and environmental improvement" by reviewing the spraying method? Creating fine liquid droplets requires a lot of energy. For example, a two-fluid spray nozzle that combines liquid pressure and air pressure. Even if the droplets are fine, if those droplets have speed, it can lead to poor coating efficiency and yield. The solution to this problem is the ultrasonic spray nozzle. Ultrasonic vibrations from piezoelectric ceramics are transmitted to the spray nozzle, causing the liquid film to vibrate, forming fine droplets, and then spraying them. Since no pressure is applied to the liquid, the droplet particles have no speed. As a result, there is very little scattering or bouncing back, and the liquid being applied is sprayed without waste. This time, we will explain the benefits of changing a previously used two-fluid nozzle to an ultrasonic spray nozzle as a case study. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our staff.

【Sonic】Sonic Corporation Blower & Air Knife System Energy-saving measures with a blower from a compressor Draining water from steel pipes is a challenging task, especially the longer the pipe is. In the case of a compressor system (using air nozzles), it is very difficult to dry the residual liquid inside the steel pipe, which requires replacing the air nozzle itself. However, by using the Sonic Corporation blower, a large volume of air can be sent into the exchange area, making it possible to accommodate longer steel pipes. (Refer to the YouTube video) We kindly ask you to consider this at least once.

Lechler offers over 25,000 types of spray nozzles and accessories. Lechler Air Nozzle Commonly known as: Multi-Channel Jet Noise level + Energy saving + High efficiency This air nozzle achieves three goals at once: reducing noise levels, considering running costs, and optimizing blow effect. Various shapes and materials of air nozzles are available, led by the best-selling FL-600E. Simply making the nozzle smaller does not necessarily improve noise levels, energy efficiency, or blow effect. Would you consider trying an air nozzle designed from the perspective of fluid dynamics? You might see significant improvements from something small.

Would you like to try freeze-drying using an ultrasonic spray nozzle? Creating fine liquid droplets requires a lot of energy. For example, a two-fluid spray nozzle that combines liquid pressure and air pressure. Even if the droplets are small, if they have speed, it can lead to poor coating efficiency and yield. The ultrasonic spray nozzle solves this problem. Ultrasonic vibrations from piezoelectric ceramics are transmitted to the spray nozzle, causing the liquid film to vibrate and form fine droplets, which are then sprayed. Since no pressure is applied to the liquid, the droplet particles have no speed. Therefore, there is very little scattering or bouncing back, and the liquid being applied is sprayed without waste. This time, we will explain the benefits of switching from a two-fluid nozzle to an ultrasonic spray nozzle in a previous application as a case study. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our staff.

Water drainage drying of wires and cables is a task that seems simple but is actually quite difficult. This is especially true on manufacturing lines that operate at high speeds and produce products of varying sizes on the same line, making the water drainage drying process even more challenging. Would you like to solve such problems? 【Sonic Corporation's Blower & Air Knife System】 By rotating the fan inside the blower at a minimum of approximately 12,000 rpm to 20,000 rpm, it is possible to achieve a larger air volume than that of compressors or domestic blowers. Additionally, one of the greatest features of the Sonic Air Knife System is that it is very economical, consuming only a fraction of the power compared to similar operations that use conventional compressed air. Environmentally, it not only operates at low noise levels but also contributes to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions due to its low power consumption.

Lechler (Case Study) Lechler GmbH not only sells spray nozzles for industrial use but also offers spray nozzles and accessories for agriculture. Generally, agricultural spray nozzles have been primarily used for spraying pesticides and other substances attached to helicopters and agricultural machinery. However, recently, the methods of pesticide application, as well as the regulations surrounding them, have been strengthened. Lechler GmbH provides products that comply with such laws and regulations. Among these is a drift-reducing spray nozzle, which can help minimize pesticide application. The spray nozzles used for agricultural drones have typically been standard nozzles, but there has arisen a need to modify them based on the application content. This case study serves as an example of a demonstration experiment for the spraying method in a vineyard.

There are various methods for water removal drying. This solution was achieved using a blower and an air knife. By rotating the fan inside the blower at a minimum of approximately 12,000 rpm to 20,000 rpm, it is possible to obtain a larger airflow than that of compressors or domestic blowers. Additionally, one of the biggest features of the Sonic Air Knife System is that it is very economical, consuming only a fraction of the power compared to similar operations using conventional compressed air. Environmentally, it not only produces low noise but also contributes to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions due to its low power consumption. This time, the case study involves water removal drying after inspecting for leaks in the vehicle body.

The Sonic Corporation's blower and air knife system can also be used as an air curtain in addition to its applications for draining and drying. This video shows the system installed at the entrance and exit of a commercial freezer. At the beginning of the video, the cold air fills the space, creating a misty visual effect, and this cold air escapes when the door opens and closes. After the air knife is activated, the cold air from the freezer is prevented from escaping outside. The strong and impactful airflow acts like a shield at the entrance of the freezer, ensuring that the cold air does not escape. The main purpose of this application is to reduce the amount of electricity used in the freezer and to contribute to the efficiency of its operation.

【Lechler】Multi-Channel Jet (Air Nozzle and Accessories) This video was produced based on the question, "Why was the Multi-Channel Jet created?" from Lechler. Of course, this product was designed with a focus on the environment rather than just productivity. Although there are not many examples mentioned, Lechler is one of the few manufacturers that lists noise levels in their catalog. In addition to the standard flat air nozzles, the round air nozzle was developed at the request of a certain domestic automotive company. It does not emit high-frequency sounds, making it quieter than the numbers suggest. The catalog includes tables showing pressure and air consumption, as well as the reach and spread of the blow, and the impact force (blow force). In addition to plastic products, we also offer metal products such as stainless steel (SUS316L) that comply with FDA standards. We would appreciate it if you could consider this for improvements in your operations.
