Working principle of air knife type drying machine

An air knife type drying machine works on the principle of high-velocity air streams that are directed towards the surface of the material to be dried. The air knife is a device that uses a high-velocity airstream to blow off and dry the surface of the material.

The drying process begins when the material to be dried enters the drying chamber. A series of high-velocity air knives, typically made of stainless steel, are positioned above and below the material. The air knives are positioned at an angle, and the direction of the air flow can be adjusted to direct the air towards the surface of the material.

The high-velocity air stream removes the moisture from the surface of the material and blows it away from the surface. As the moisture is removed, the surface of the material begins to dry. The process is repeated several times until the material is completely dry.

Air knife type drying machines are commonly used in the manufacturing industry to dry products such as bottles, cans, and other containers. They are also used to dry parts after a cleaning process or to remove excess liquid from a product after it has been washed. The machines are efficient and effective at removing moisture from surfaces, and they are an essential part of many manufacturing processes.
