Air-powered device dries product with less energy consumption

Beckair’s Neublade is a new type of air-powered device that can be used for drying, cleaning, cooling and containing.

It will find applications in many industries, says the company, including food, beverage, brewing and other manufacturing sectors.

With an energy consumption that is claimed to be only

one-third that of standard nozzles and blades, the Neublade is also much quieter (only 65dB) and cost-effective in operation.

Working like an air knife but using compressed air rather than blown air, the key to the Neublade’s performance is the way the air leaves the strip, which creates a narrow, extremely powerful stream of air.

Easy to retrofit on existing equipment, the Neublade has no moving parts so is entirely maintenance-free.

There is also a choice of air entry for maximum flexibility. Manufactured from extruded, anodised aluminium, it is available in any length up to 2m and is supplied with a

quick-fit hose connector.
