GreenBlow also becomes Blue Visual!

The application of the Green Blow Air Line in the Food sector, and 4th Range industry (fruit and veggies processing) , has forced us to design components that comply with high hygiene standards against accidental contamination in food preparations.
The same standards are also required in the pharmaceutical industry which has the same needs.

This is the main objective of the new Blue Visual version which significantly reduces the risk of accidental contamination by foreign bodies in environments where cleanliness, hygiene and safety are essential requirements.

The Blue Visual line, compared to the standard one, is produced with technopolymers suitable for food contact, in Blue Color (RAL5005) and has all the screws and metal parts in stainless steel.

The blue material is widely used in the food industry as, due to its high visibility, it can be easily detected optically in line. Moreover, it is easier to determine the cleanliness of the components as spores, mold and residues of food and detergent are more visible on this color than on others.

The main features of the Blue Visual line:

Corrosion and chemical resistance:
plastic materials which by definition do not present corrosion problems, and all the bolts and brackets made of stainless steel also guarantee chemical resistance (even if the use of strong bases and strong acids for cleaning is not recommended). The profiles used for the air knives are available on request in aluminum treated with hard anodizing for greater resistance;

Resistance to temperatures: the technopolymers used are suitable for temperatures of around 70°C, while electric motors and inverters should not exceed 60°C and 50°C respectively.
These values refer to the temperature of the environment in which they are located. The treated product, on the other hand, can have much higher temperatures, the important thing is that there is no direct contact;

Surface finishes and cleanability: the surfaces of all the components of the line have limited roughness so as to allow maximum cleanability even with simple water.

Green Blow Air Line – “T” Coupling

All News, Product news

The Green Blow Air Line is enriched by a new component:
T Coupling 100 M/M/M

This component provides greater flexibility to the system allowing to connect two air knives – or diffusers- to the same blower.

This solution is perfect in cases of small products, or in any case, where the air knives do not exceed a total length of 1500mm (total between the two air knives).

The particular geometry guarantees:
– excellent uniformity of the outgoing air flow
– reduction of turbulences and pressure drop

This component is compatible with all other products of the Green Blow Air Line.

All the Green Blow Air Line is available on our catalogue B2B and 3D files on portal FMPartCommunity

Smart Blow … tailor-made drying!

The Green Blow air line, recently, has met with great success in the Food & Beverage sector where the recurring problems mainly concern drying in the pre-labeling phase or in any case after steam sterilization processes.

The growing applications made in this sector have led us to study a diffuser that could, in a small space, dry all the surfaces of the packaging.

In particular, one of the most difficult problems so far to solve was the drying of the upper part of the cans or the lower edge of the cap of the jars, in order to avoid the appearance of rust during storage in the warehouses.

Smart Blow, combined with the Green Blow Plus fan, eliminates this problem with a series of advantages.

SMART BLOW: a smart diffuser

Smart Blow is a highly customizable diffuser that brings together several advantages:

Effective drying: in a single station there are 3 diffusers (one upper and two laterals) which allow the drying of all the surfaces of the object;
Small dimensions: a single drying station need a space of only 600mm;
Versatility: with the same diffuser it is possible to dry objects with similar dimensions without having to change the configuration at each change-over;
Modularity: if the speed of the line does not allow perfect drying with a single station, it is possible to combine others in series, until the optimal result is obtained;
Simple installation: it can be mounted on pre-existing lines. It does not need dedicated elements and no specialized technicians are needed;
Low Costs: it is an economic alternative to all existing solutions, above all with limited energy consumption (indicatively from 1 to 2kW effective per station);
Extremely low maintenance: the system does not require special maintenance if not replacing the filter, when necessary.
Customizable: the shape of the final part of the 3 diffusers can be customized based on the shape of the packing to be dried, even with complex and particular shapes.

For this product line, another important novelty will be presented in the coming weeks, especially concerning the FOOD sector. Follow us for all the details!
