Technology that exceeds performance achieves robustness capable of withstanding harsh environments. Innovative design and reliable manufacturing processes maximize productivity and open the door to a sustainable future. Experience the power of the blowing process that accelerates the evolution of your business.
The blowers and air knives manufactured by Sonic Corporation have been products that assist in improving the blowing processes and energy saving in many industries.
Born from approximately 150 years of history and experience, one of the 45,000 types from the spray nozzle manufacturer Lechler has become a sensational bestseller in Japan, the Multi-Channel Jet (Air Nozzle). This nozzle series is used across a wide range of industries, from general-purpose items like the FL-600E to food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, medical, as well as steel and automotive.
What is "one stone, three birds"? It refers to an air nozzle that, while being low noise (quiet) and reducing air consumption (energy-saving), also has a strong impact force (high functionality).
It can reduce generated noise more effectively while providing impact force while suppressing air consumption and air pressure.
Leading the best-selling FL-600E, compressed air is supplied from the air supply side to the nozzle opening, allowing for a powerful blow with strong impact force from that opening. Due to the air flow being laminar along with the powerful injection force, it reduces waste of air consumption and noise levels caused by turbulent injection, making it an environmentally friendly product that is gentle on people. The blow patterns are available in two types: flat and round. Additionally, due to the manufacturer's unique design, there is no air diffusion.
The air nozzle FL-600E comes standard with an orifice cover (the world's first), which allows for the closing of the injection port. This helps to minimize unnecessary air blowing to unwanted areas.
Approval Standards:
- OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration [Noise])
- FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration)
- (EC) No. 1935/2004 (Approval for materials in contact with food and beverages)
- Compliant with (EU) 10/2011 for plastics
- TSCA5 compliant
Cost reduction! A lineup of "low noise + energy-saving + high-performance" air nozzles approved by OSHA, FDA, and EC No. 1935/2004.
Many places still use open pipes for water drainage, blowing, transfer, and drying applications with compressors. By changing the blowing process to an air nozzle, noise generated can be significantly reduced, while also controlling air consumption and air pressure, allowing for the application of impact force.
Leading with the best-selling FL-600E, compressed air is supplied from the air supply side to the nozzle opening, performing blowing with powerful impact force from that orifice. Due to the strong injection force and the laminar flow of air, it reduces waste of air consumption and lowers noise levels caused by turbulent injection, making it an environmentally friendly product that is gentle on people. The blow patterns are available in two types: flat and round. Additionally, thanks to the manufacturer's unique design, air diffusion is prevented.
The air nozzle FL-600E comes standard with an orifice cover (the world's first), allowing the injection port to be closed. This helps to minimize unnecessary air blowing in undesired areas. Please take a look.

The pioneer of air nozzles, SecoMax, offers air amplification type air nozzles (achieving improved blowing and energy savings through air amplification!).
Why can it be amplified?
Compressed air is supplied from the inlet to an annular chamber, where the air is constricted by a small-diameter ring nozzle, causing it to flow out of the chamber at high speed.
This air rushes toward the outlet along the Coanda effect 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 discharge (blow).
Each model number indicates the size of the suction inlet diameter.

The standard Sonic SMART Tunnel module is available in sizes 24", 48", 72", and 96" (optional: up to 120" with noise levels below 80dBA). Future product additions and line speed changes can be easily accommodated (support for full-length extensions or soundproofing). Noise levels can be reduced by 7 to 10dBA (optional to achieve below 80dBA). The standard air knife bracket requires minimal adjustments to fit the size of dedicated containers. With the separately sold indexed three-axis air knife bracket, various sizes of containers can be dried, and adjustments are easy. It comes with a sealed water droplet collection tray. Due to the aerodynamic tunnel design, there is less chance of re-wetting the workpiece from secondary splatter. The inspection panel is lightweight and can be easily lifted. No hinges or latches are needed for bending or securing. A complete piping and hose kit for the Sonic blower is included. No processing of the conveyor is required except for cutting the side rails. The enclosure can be easily installed even if it is away from the tunnel, allowing easy access to blowers and filters installed on the floor. No lifting or crane is needed for tunnel installation. The tunnel can be installed while the existing conveyor is in operation. Noise reduction.
Tilt the two air knives slightly and present a blowing method that focuses on the body and upper part.
[Technical Solutions from SONIC]
○ SONIC has tilted two air knives slightly and proposed a blowing method that concentrates on the body and upper part.
○ A third knife is used to remove water from the bottom.
○ The same design used for drying fenders supplied to a major American motorcycle manufacturer has been adopted.
○ The gap or slot of the air knife can be adjusted in length to allow for a wider gap.
○ While maintaining the standard gap, the knife gap can be separately adjusted at the top and bottom to hit the handle and the lower ring.
○ Not only does the wind hit the body of the tank effectively, but it also reduces the required power.
○ To further reduce costs, it was suggested to use ABS piping instead of plated steel pipes.
○ By installing this air knife, immediate results were achieved in removing residual water.
○ The wind speed at the outlet of the air knife is 340 MPH, so results are consistent regardless of day or night.
