A compressed air gun is a type of non-lethal gun that uses compressor air as its power source to blow, suck, and transport materials.
There are two types of air guns: a hand-held type, which is mainly handled by the user's hand, and a type that is attached to a specific machine or tool for work.
Since the inside of a compressed air gun is basically hollow and free from obstructions caused by other parts, it is safe to work with because no objects can get stuck inside it during work.
The compressed air gun is used in a variety of manufacturing facilities.
The blow-off function can be used to clean the work site by blowing off fine dust, etc. The air pressure generated by the blow-off can also be used for cooling and drying.
Air-blast type machines are also available for spraying abrasive materials, paints, and liquids, and for surface treatment such as rust removal and descaling.
With the suction function, liquids and powders can be suctioned and collected for cleaning.
The basic structure of a compressed air gun is very simple, consisting of an outlet, an intake port, and a compressor to compress air.
When the compressed air gun is used for blowing out, compressed air is sent from the compressor to the air outlet, and when outside air flows into the intake port, high pressure air is blown out from the outlet port, allowing work to be performed.
When using the compressor for suction, the compressed air gun's outlet and inlet ports are reversed and the same operation is performed to suck in the target object from the inlet port.
To ensure safety, a hose or dust collection bag must be attached to the compressed air gun's outlet.
Furthermore, if a hose or tube is connected to both the outlet and inlet ports, it can be used as a transport gun.
There is also a spiral jet method that can efficiently blow a large volume of air, allowing you to choose a product with the functions that best suit your application and site.
