Vortex Air Wipe AWM 10  - The Merits        

           COSMOS offers singular and multiple line air wipes (also known as wire wipe) of wire passage in ultra hard materials, diamond polished, ready for installation, featuring:

        Vortex air jet maximizes energy usage
        Solid alumina air wipe body permits high wire speed
           and long life
    The sectional view illustrates the details                Choice of precisely centered, close-fit bores

How does it clean the Wire?
               
          Refer to the view above. Compressed air enters the wipe cylinder through a  quick  air coupling, leading to the circumferential air pocket into the solid alumina air wipe body via 2 compound-angle orifices which create a strong Vortex in the cleaning chamber, carrying away the contaminants from the wire in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the wire. Cleaned wire emerges from the close-fit air wipe bore. The wire is thoroughly cleaned while the compressed air is utilized in the most efficient manner.
                 

          The quick air coupling, rated at 15 bars, accepts an air hose of  4 X  2 mm.
