    Air Amplifiers in Aluminum Mill Production

    May 25th, 2010

    Our recent customer Neil from company who manufactures light gauge aluminum wanted to see the possibility of using a high-speed centrifugal blower to replace competitive compressed air nozzles at his casting mills.

    The problem he had is that the metal chips being created were being blown onto the floor causing a serious safety hazard. This was not his only problem though! A significant amount of these chips were also falling back onto the aluminum sheets causing rejects by their customers.

    After briefly talking with Neil about his problem, I educated him on the possible use of our Air Amplifiers versus centrifugal blower. Using a small amount of compressed air as their power source, the Air Amplifier will pull in massive volumes of air from the surrounding environment to produce high velocity and high volume outlet flows at amplification ratios up to 30:1.

    Neil ended up installing two (2) 4″ Adjustable Air Amplifiers. The STREAMTEK Air Amplifier system saved him ~35% of compressed air costs and improved the overall quality of his aluminum products.

    My father always taught me to ‘Keep it simple’! Well at STREAMTEK we understand that customers today just want two things. Best Price for a product that will last. That’s it! It’s really pretty simple.

    Weather your looking to cool an electrical enclosure, convey some bottle caps or dry a sheet of glass, we guarantee that you will not find compressed air-operated products at a better price anywhere.

    So while other larger companies out there bicker between each-other to maintain market share, STREAMTEK continues to keep things simple. Get the end user a quality product at the lowest price. It’s not rocket science people!

    P.S. Using a competitive product? We will ship you our equivalent model FREE & give you a voucher to receive 15% OFF our entire product line for LIFE. All we ask is that you ship us your old unit so that we can destroy it.
