Side channel blower
Side-channel blowers, also known as side-channel compressors, are electrical vacuum generators. They accelerate air through an impeller in a ring-shaped channel and thus create a uniform vacuum. Thanks to their robust design, side channel blowers are durable and reliable. They are therefore ideal for applications with a high flow rate.
In the wood industry, they are often used for board removal in sawmills and for automated processes in joineries. Side channel blowers also ensure a safe holder and efficient work when handling pallets and cardboard boxes. In food production, they support precise pick-and-place operations, while in intra-logistics and warehouse picking they are used for fast and reliable handling of goods.
