2" Super Air Nozzle Blows Off Extrusion
Customer manufactures a galvanized, metal molding used in the building industry. Coolant is used to form the metal into the desired shape and must be blown off after going through the forming dies. Customer was using (2) 1/8 NPT, squashed pipe nipples to blow the extrusion off. They were using about 120 SCFM between the two pipe nipples. Customer retrofitted the process with (2)Model 1122 2" (51mm) Flat Super Air Nozzles and dropped total air consumption to 44 SCFM. Air savings for using the nozzles was 63% and the nozzles were more effective at removing the coolant than the previous home-made solution.
