Air cannons

Description

The SKAKO air cannon is a system to solve flow problems into silos or hoppers for bulk materials such as ash, slag, lime, cement, coal, ore, clay, salts, shavings, powder, etc.
The compressed air stored in the air cannon is launched as an explosive charge, in a few thousandths of a second, through its large section of the tube, to the critical areas of the silo or the hopper, where the product clogs. The impact of the energy fractures the clogged material, without any risk of explosion since a pneumatic valve is used which produces neither sparks nor flames. Since the energy is directly applied to the clogged material, there is no risk of damaging the structure of the silo.
