We invented it. Now we perfected it. The new AirSweep maximizes your productivity, speed and cost-efficiency. Each pulse generates stronger force and more efficient air flow that activates more material with less energy and plant air.
More Power in each pulse module
Laboratory tests proved that AirSweep MAX delivers 52% more output pressure.

AirSweep® Vs. Vibrators Vs. Fluidizers
| 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 |
