Industrial vacuum cleaners

The side channel blower is used in wheeled or centralized suction systems to clean environments and machine tools.

aspirat-indusr-min

Suction of dusty or contaminating substances

The blower is used to suck shavings, welding fumes, oils, and dusty substances dispersed into the environment during processing, ensuring high standards of hygiene and cleanliness on production lines, departments and on processing machinery.

Our solutions

In the recovery of dusty or contaminating substances, 3 families of blowers are used.

Galvanic Treatments

Blowers are used in galvanic treatment plants for handling liquids in process tanks.

tratt-galv-min

Agitation of liquids

The blower is used to blow the air from the bottom of the tank and create a mild agitation of the galvanic bath, favoring the replacement of the solution on the piece to be treated and contributing to the deposit of the liquids that will give shape to the finished product.

Our solutions

For the recovery of dusty or contaminating substances, 3 families of blowers and air knives are used.

Drying systems for metal parts 

Blowers are used on washing tunnels for metal components (such as screws, bolts, brake supports, pipes, casings, etc.) to pre-dry the pieces between one treatment cycle and the next or before drying.

asciug-fpz-2

Drying of metal parts

The blowers are used to dry and remove drops of liquid and condensation from small metal parts.

Our solutions

The families of blowers used in drying metal components are the MS, MD and TD that can be combined with the Windblade ™ air knives.

Galvanic Treatments

The pumps are used in galvanic treatment plants to inject different types of substances.

tratt-galv-doseuro

Neutralization of ph

The pumps are used in the galvanic bath to neutralize the pH by injecting acids, toxic and corrosive liquids necessary for the processing of small metal parts.

Our solutions

The pumps used for pH neutralization are mechanical diaphragm.

Vibro metal finishing

Pumps are used to polish small metal parts.

fin-metalli-min

Dosage of rinse aid

The pump is used in the vibrating tanks to inject the rinse aid needed to polish small metal parts.

Our solutions

Electromagnetic or mechanical diaphragm pumps are used for polishing metals.

Galvanic Treatments 

Blowers are used in large plants for handling liquids in process tanks.

tratt-galv-arivent

Agitation of liquids

The blower is used to blow the air from the bottom of the tank and create a mild agitation of the galvanic bath, favoring the replacement of the solution on the piece to be treated and contributing to the deposit of the liquids that will give shape to the finished product.

Our solutions

The fans of the G and MR series are the most suitable for galvanic treatment.

G and MR series

Metal production

The fan is used in the production of metals on different types of plants: RTO, galvanizing and pickling with specific objectives.

prod-metalli-min

Transportation of materials

The fan recovers the materials used for the production of metals (sand, acids, etc.), conveying them to the burners which converts them into energy that can be used in subsequent processing.

Metal drying

The fan is used in ovens to heat and move the air in order to remove residual drops and condensation from metals after processing. If the systems are of modest size, the FPZ blower can be used as an alternative.

Air purification and expulsion

The fan is used in suction to transport the air charged with pollutants to the regenerative thermal combustor which returns it to the purified environment.

Our solutions

The fans are equipped with a radial blade or tip impeller ideal for transporting metals and are often equipped with a titanium nut coating to be more resistant to corrosion processes. The fans of the G and MR series are the most suitable for that type of work.

Air treatment 

The fan is used to purify the air in the mine.

tratt-aria-min

Neutralization of powders

The fan sucks the air in the mine with dust particles, allowing them to be removed. This treatment is necessary on construction sites to maintain a healthy work environment for operators and avoid serious damage to machinery.

Our solutions

Arivent fans for air treatment are mainly used on the surface according to the ATEX Group II directive.
