The GreenBlow® line will be present at FISPAL Tecnologia !!!

FISPAL Tecnologia, the trade fair for food & beverage industry technologies, will open its doors next week, at Sao Paolo Expo Center (Brazil) from 18th to 21st June.

We will be present at the stand of our distributor for Brazil, SERVITECH (Stand. Q115) to show some possible drying solutions built using the components of the GreenBlow® Line.

What applications can be seen  ?

Two different drying solutions will be exhibited, with high efficiency and low energy impact blowers complete one with Smart Blow diffuser and another with air knife. All solutions using the components of the GreenBlow® Line, in order to understand how easy it is to configure a drying system simply by choosing the right components of the Line.


Drying with SMART BLOW:

Before the product labeling or marking phase, it is essential to obtain effective drying of the container also to ensure correct storage of the product before sale.

Smart Blow it is a “tailor-made” diffuser, as it must follow the shape of the container to be dried as precisely as possible, drying all sides of the container at the same time.

With this diffuser you can dry:

  • bottles and all bottled products (beer, wine, fruit juices, liqueurs but also tomato puree and more), with a line with totally Visual Blue components   (watch the video)
  • cans:  soft drinks, canned products (beans, vegetables, etc…) (watch the video)
  • jars: jams, pickles and all glasse products (watch the video)
  • cardboard boxes (brick): cardboard boxes such as milk or fruit juices (watch the video)

Drying with AIR KNIVES:

The air knives are available in different versions (with lateral and central inlet) and can be produced to measure up to a width of over 3 metres. With this product you can dry:

  • fruit and vegetable: with the air knife it is possible to cover the entire width of the conveyor belt, drying fruit and vegetables in transit (watch the video) both in the upper and, possibly, lower part.
  • drink packaging: in the packaging process with heat-shrink film (e.g. drinks but also vacuum-packed sausages) it is possible to stop the hot process  to avoid excessive shrinkage of the package (watch the video).
  • products in tubes or bags: after the pasteurization or sterilization phase it is possible to simply dry products in tubes (such as tomato sauce or other products) or products in bags (such as tuna, legumes or other foods) (watch the video)
  • kegs: (e.g. beer kegs) the air knife can cover the entire surface of the container or concentrate on a specific part, e.g. to dry the marking area.
  • trays or plastic boxes: drink boxes, food trays or even sprouting plants can be easily cleaned of dirty material (ex. soil with our suction) and then dried after cleaning (watch the video)

The suction part (dust, debris or other) is also available, through the application of suction hoods and cyclone which are part of the Pull’n’Catch system (which can be used both stand alone, i.e. autonomous, and connected to the existing suction centralized system)

Smart Blow

SmartBlow is a highly efficient and effective system for
drying bottles, jars, cans and other packaged products.

In a sector where packaging, in addition to preserving the product, is a decisive marketing tool, the quality of the packaged product is essential. Correct labeling and perfect conservation are characteristics that can significantly influence sales.

Bottles drying

Be it wines, spirits, fruit juices or any bottled liquid, drying before the labeling stage is essential. Furthermore, removing the water residues under the cap allows for perfect conservation in stock, avoiding oxidation which would make the product unsalable.

Application video available HERE

Cans, Jars, Canned products

Also in this case the drying before the labeling phase after pasteurization phases, for example, is a decisive process for the quality of the product. Some critical points of these products are under the screw cap, or under the flip-part where water residues are more difficult to remove.
SmartBlow is specially designed to solve even these complex points.

Application video available HERE

TetraPack and Carton Bricks

In this case, drying on all sides of the product allows correct marking of the product and effective gluing of the straw, if present.

Application video available HERE

A “tailor-made” product

All SmartBlow diffusers are “tailor-made” products, so that they can perfectly follow the shape of the packaging to be dried to maximize its effectiveness.
The number of drying stations needed depends on the speed of the line and the drying expectations required.

General characteristics of the GreenBlow® Line

GreenBlow® Line has unique characteristics as it combines blowers with relatively low pressures and high flow rates. The accessories that are part of the line, together with air knives and diffusers (custom designed for the blowers) are able to offer high speed air flows with minimum pressure drops.

These characteristics are essential for a complex drying application such as that required by this sector, never forgetting a low energy impact and high efficiency.

All GreenBlow® Line is available also in BluVisual version designed for the food sector.
The main features are: technopolymers suitable for food contact, RAL5005 blue color and stainless steel screws and brackets.
