3.1 Description of the product function
The air cannon is used to dissolve baked-on materials, arch
formation, rat holes and other types of build-ups. The air cannon
achieves this by “shooting” air through pipes or special nozzles in
a bulk container or, for example, in smoke channels. This eliminates
the build-ups and restores trouble-free material flow.
Examples of various types of build-ups:
• Silo (A) baked on material
• Silo (B and C) Arch formation
• Silo (D) Rat hole
