Compressed Air Systems are considered to be a fourth utility within industries because they use a large amount of energy.  Whether an air compressor that uses fuel for portable units or that uses electricity, it is important to use this system as efficiently as possible.  This would also apply to the automotive industry.  EXAIR has a library of different processes in which we have already improved these areas safely and efficiently.  If you are part of the automotive industry, it could benefit you to take a peek at the areas that we have already improved, established OSHA compliant safety measures, and saved money.

Application Database: Aerospace.

EXAIR uses many different methods to connect with our customers.  We have our website, social media, blogs, publications, etc.  We like to share solutions for some of the most common pneumatic problems in the industry.  EXAIR generated a large collection of application information where EXAIR products have solved problems and improved processes, and we placed them in a database.  We organized them by Application and by Industry.  In this blog, I will share an application within the Aerospace industry and how you can find it as well.

The aerospace industry needed help cleaning the wings on an airplane after washing.  The use of rags and squeegees was time-consuming and could scratch the surface of the wing.  They were looking for a non-contact way to clean the surface quickly and efficiently.  They contacted EXAIR, as we are the leaders in this industry.  To reach across the surface, I recommended the model 110272PKI 72” Aluminum Super Air Knife Kit with a Plumbing Kit installed.  The plumbing kit makes it easy to properly install compressed air to this long air knife.  The kit adds a filter, regulator, and a shim set to help control the force of the Super Air Knife to optimize blow-off.  This company was able to mount this to a rodless cylinder to move the Super Air Knife along the entire length of the wing.  Drying and cleaning the surface without touching the exterior, making it a great way to get the wings to the next step in the process.   

EXAIR offers many solutions for many types of industries by reducing costs and improving processes.  EXAIR has these solutions in a library on our website.  If you are part of the Aerospace industry, it can be beneficial for you.  It is a “been there, done that” solution that you can take advantage of. 

Here is how you can find this library.  First, you will have to sign in to the EXAIR website.  Click HERE to log in.  Once you fill in the proper information, you can then retrieve a great number of resources about the EXAIR products that we manufacture.   The Application database is located under the Resources drop-down tab (reference photo below) and at Applications.  

At the Application Search Library, we have over one thousand applications that we reference.  In the left selection pane, we organized them under two categories: Application and Industry.  

Scroll down in the Industry selection pane until you come to the sub-category: Aerospace.  If you do not find it, you can select the Expand button to open up more categories.  We have other applications as well that may relate to your specific process if you scroll up and down the list, like Automotive and Aviation, as examples.
