Airsweep 360-degree burst of compressed air diagram

The new AirSweep maximizes your productivity, speed and cost-efficiency. Each pulse generates stronger force and free-flowing air stream that activates more material with less energy and plant air.

Laboratory tests proved that AirSweep MAX delivers 52% more output pressure.

FASTER MATERIAL FLOW

Quickly empty the vessel for higher production or shorter cleaning times.

LOWER OPERATING COSTS

Use less energy and plant air to activate the same amount of material.

BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY

20 aerospace-grade design specs | 20 patented improvements | 6 proprietary parts

AirSweep MAX’s performance is a result of its proprietary design and parts. 

You can’t copy quality.

AIRSWEEP VS OTHER FLOW AIDS


Airsweep-Logo

Vibrators

Fluidizers
Technique Uses pulses of pressurized air Uses vibration to shake material free Air flows into a disc, which flaps and vibrates
Activation Radius Effective radius of 4 feet No specific activation area Small activation radius
Material Control Can be used with dry, wet, or sticky materials Sticky material still builds up, even if bridging is controlled Not good with sticky or wet materials
Noise Emits quiet hiss with each pulse Extremely noisy Noisy – sounds like air horn when operating
Damage to Product or Vessel No container fatigue; can be used on thin-skinned bins Metal and weld fatigue from vibration or hammering of piston air knocker May cause vessel abrasion; disc material can degrade and contaminate product
Cost of Operation Intermittent pulsing – only a small amount of plant air Longer period of operation uses more air and power Longer period of operation uses more compressed air
Installation Installed from outside vessel, for easy cleaning and maintenance Installed from outside – channel iron required for reinforcement and transmission Installed inside the vessel
