Model Sonic XE - Air Knife
From Sonic Air Knife and Centrifugal Blowers
Sonic Air Systems invented the XE 'eXtra Efficiency' high velocity air knife in 1994 as the world's first single piece, teardrop shaped, extruded aluminum air knife with a 0.95 coefficient of discharge (i.e. 95% air efficiency) in order to produce a laminar air flow across any slot length. Since that time we have manufactured over 30 linear miles of Sonic XE air knives in aluminum, stainless steel and mild steel. The Sonic XE air knife product line has also grown to nearly 100 unique XE design variations to suit the unique air knife requirements of virtually every industry. With XE profiles from 2' to 10' (2' to 254mm) tall, lengths of 1' to 240' (50 to 5000mm) together with air slot widths from .010' to .250' (0.25mm to 6.0mm) and air nozzles from .375' to 4.0' (9 to 102mm) diameter, Sonic leads the industry in design and application experience.
