Contamination-free spreading & coatings

For pre-coating cleaning & drying applications Air Knife Systems create high-velocity clean, oil-free, ionised air curtains that remove 99%+ of dust, debris and static from objects. This means that coatings on objects meet the highest quality standards, and the need for re-coating due to contamination or inaccurate spread is eliminated.

Investment paybacks are often achieved in just a few months, sometimes in a matter of weeks, providing a superior return-on-investment.
