The Air-Slide is an air injection system that combines the power of
a blaster with the sophistication of controlled feeding to eliminate arching, rat holes, and
caked-on material.The average Air-Slide system uses less than 10 CFM of plant air--less air than air pads, blasters, lances or pneumatic vibrators. Plus, there is no damage, vibration, stress or wear to container walls and no need to empty bins or stop production.
Any place granular or fine material builds up or bridges is appropriate for this system. Air slides can operate in temperatures above 900 degrees Farenheit and can be piped for installation inside containers.
Examples include metal, concrete, wood, or fiberglass bins, hoppers,
silos, chutes, batchers, conveyor transfer points, larry cars, screens,
feeders, pipes, pneumatic convey lines, dust collectors, live bottoms
and centrifuges within the following industries for the following materials:
| Mined Materials Coal (coke, mine run silt,pulverized) Aluminum Barite Bentonite Borax Diatomaceous Earth Copper Gypsum Iron Ore Limestone Lead Lignite Magnetite Phosphate Shale Soda Ash Taconite Foods Animal Feeds Brewers Grain Brine (dust) Chocolate Coffee Feed Flour Meal Peanuts Salt Tankage Uranium |
Chemicals Adipic Acid Aluminum Chloride Ag Limestone Boric Acid Calcine Calcium Carbonate Herbicides Iron Oxide Lead Chromate Lim Moly Disulfite Polyacrilimide Sodium Sulfite Titanium Dioxide Zinc (Acetate, Chromate, Oxide) Other Foundry Sand (Mold green, prepared no-bake) Cement Chalk Cork Detergent Fertilizer Fly Ash Pharmaceuticals Plastics Resin Sludge |

Air-Slide parts are machined from blocks of high-grade steel for added
strength and wear resistance.The Air-Slide lasts because it has only one moving part, the piston, which features a dust type nozzel that quickly recluses and reseals after firing. Fines and feedback material are locked out, eliminating clogging and jamming.
Powerful mini-pulses of air are directed between the material and the
container wall to sweep and lift material off sloping surfaces. Loosened material falls toward the outlet, initiating downward flow of bin contents.
Unlike a conventional blaster, the Air-Slide system does not cause overflow of material into the discharge. Instead, because the system uses several strategically placed nozzles, material outflow can be controlled by sequentially firing the nozzles from lowest to highest.
By firing from lowest to highest, the material is always flushed away from the discharge first, initiating flow before additional material is activated from above.
Nozzles are sized based upon come or hopper size; Air-Slide coverage is typically 60% of the cone or hopper; less if only aeration is needed (i.e. flour, or readily fluidizable materials); sometimes more if product is very heave, wet, sticky, or with very poor flow characteristics.
Up to an 8 foot diameter of material is dislodged. The Air Slide can also be piped for installation inside containers and can operate in temperatures above 900 degrees Fahrenheit.
