In contrast to the competition, where mostly piston compressors and jet nozzles are used, we work exclusively with compact, high-speed turbo fans, which generate a constant, laminar air flow or air curtain in a particularly efficient manner (efficiency >70%) in conjunction with specially designed nozzles.
The result is outstanding and has clear cost advantages compared to other technologies.
Efficient and customized solution for your flow needs. Constant, uniform airflow with higher efficiency than compressed air technologies. Discover the advantages now of the HTK-Vent Air Knife:
A technology that pays off
Our turbo fans in combination with specially developed nozzles generate a constant air flow with an efficiency often exceeding 70%. Compared to conventional methods, this means not only an excellent result, but also considerable cost advantages. With 90% lower energy consumption than compressed air technologies and significantly lower maintenance costs, our solutions often pay for themselves within a few months.
Individual solutions for your requirements
We work with CAD and 3D printing to create customized solutions for your unique airflow needs. Pre-calculated and simulated through CFD simulations, we can ensure that our solutions meet your requirements. In addition, we often test our simulation setups live at the customer’s site before integrating them into the plant.
Precise control and lower noise emissions
With our Air Knife, you can precisely control air volume and velocity, resulting in increased product quality. Line losses are also a thing of the past, as our Air Knife is installed on-site for increased plant flexibility. In addition, our systems are significantly less sensitive to changing operating conditions than compressed air systems and offer lower noise emissions.
Safety in hazardous areas
By using clean ambient air instead of compressed air, our solutions can also be used in potentially explosive atmospheres. And unlike compressed air systems, there is no wear and tear on the nozzles because they are operated by clean ambient air.
Rely on HTK-Vent’s expertise to meet your unique airflow needs. We offer an efficient, customized and safe solution for your facility.

Air Knives: The clever solution for efficient production processes
Air Knives are true all-rounders when it comes to saving costs and increasing productivity. Unlike compressed air, Air Knives use clean ambient air, enabling savings of up to 90% in energy costs.
From drying to shaping – the possible applications
The possible applications of Air Knives are manifold. Products such as paper, textiles, bottles and components can be dried effectively. The removal of dust and residues from products and machines is also possible without any problems. Furthermore, products and machines can be cooled or heated and materials can be separated as in the processing of recycled materials. Air Knives also provide valuable services in the shaping of products, for example in the manufacture of food packaging.
