[Sonic] Water Drainage Drying Case Studies: Issues with Bottle Labeling
There was no need for additional construction, and it fit into the existing production line.
Sonic Corporation decided to operate the Sonic150 with 25 horsepower and two air knives, and to circulate air to raise the temperature coming from the air knives. The concept behind Sonic Corporation's revolutionary VT (patent pending) design is to utilize the pressure heat from the blower by partially circulating air. The exit temperature from the air knives will be approximately 45°C to 50°C. This method does not require an external thermal system. The air knives are installed about 10mm away from the bottles, allowing the bottles to pass through at a wind speed of approximately 9,300m/min. The high-speed air and heated exit temperature melt the ice and turn the remaining moisture into a mist. As a result, the bottles can be completely dried. [Content] [Issues] ○ Moisture and cold air leave water droplets on the glass, resulting in the reformation of water droplets before labeling. ○ Labels cannot be applied until the bottles are dried. ○ The injection and labeling of bottles require empty bottles to be stacked in a heated warehouse, and this process can only occur after they have been warmed.

We have started reissuing the catalog for the IBC tote tank dryer.
We have started to reissue the catalog for tank dryers specialized for IBCs and totes. Sonic Air Systems' "DRY-IN-PLACE Tank Dryer" is a patented system that efficiently dries the interiors of tanks, IBCs, hoppers, barrels, and more. It eliminates the need for conventional heating devices and manual wiping, providing uniform drying with pressurized hot air at temperatures ranging from 150°F to 275°F. It circulates high-flow air at low pressure of 1-2 psig, achieving energy-efficient and rapid drying. This system is ideal for post-CIP drying in environments requiring hygiene management, such as food, pharmaceuticals, and chemical plants, contributing to improved product quality and safety. There are plenty of options available, such as portable blower carts and HEPA filters, allowing for customization to fit the installation environment. Compared to traditional drying methods, significant savings in time and energy can be expected.

An article on the use of Sonic Corporation's blowers and air knives, which are handled by our company, for water drainage, drying, and blowing away will be featured in the May 2025 issue of the Monthly Food Machinery Equipment.
Published by Business Center Co., Ltd. In the May 2025 issue of Monthly Food Machinery and Equipment, we contributed an article on the use of blowers and air knives manufactured by Sonic Corporation, which are part of our product lineup, for water drainage, drying, and blowing off. Solving the Unchanged Problems of the Blow Process After cleaning, there is always a process to dry the items before the next step. The drying method is still predominantly done by blowing. There are methods that use compressors and methods that use blowers. Additionally, the method varies depending on the size, shape, and time of the items. This time, since it is aimed at food machinery and equipment, the items include bottles, cans, PET bottles, and packs. We have been promoting Sonic Corporation in the Japanese domestic market for nearly 20 years. We utilized our achievements and experience to contribute this time. If you are interested in the document, we would be grateful if you could take a moment to read it. Also, if anyone would like to read this article, please feel free to contact our staff.
