Unclog Storage & Conveyance: Air Knocker & Vibrator
Examples of Air Knocker
Automate powder and granule flow for enhanced on-site safety and cost-efficient labor management
We have extensive experience in vibration technology for more than 100 years, providing the solution for clogging issues of powder and granules.
In industries handling powders and granules, storage facilities like hoppers and silos, along with conveying pipes, are essential. However, blockages are a common issue, often manually addressed. Our Air Knocker and Air Vibrator are automate unclogging of powder in a storage by vibration through air control, enhancing safety and reducing operational costs.

Air Knocker RKV series
EXEN Air Knocker features
The Air Knocker series, powered by compressed air, delivers indirect impacts to the hopper's walls, effectively preventing adhesion and blockages in powder and granule handling. With the following 4 features, it ensures both safety and labor cost reduction.
Variable Impact Force
Utilizing a unique umbrella-type valve mechanism, adjusting the air pressure easily varies the impact force. In order to resolve blockages, increase the air pressure; if the force is too strong, decrease it instead. Also, adjusting the pressure is effective for reducing noise. Its air-only operation enhances safety and cost-effectiveness.
Simultaneous Multi-Unit Operation
Equipped with relay piping for running multiple units concurrently, reducing control panel numbers across the facility. Adopting relay piping minimizes facility costs.
Oil-Free
Operates without lubricating oil, saving expenses and eliminating the need for lubricators in the air supply system. This oil-free feature ensures maintenance-free operation and brings various benefits.
Simple Structure, High Durability
With a robust design, there is no need for unnecessary spare parts stockpiling. Its simple structure allows easy maintenance.

Wide-ranging applications
Our products can be utilized across a wide range of applications, meeting the needs of industries that handle powders and granules, including food, cement, feed, fertilizer, coal, steel, chemicals, and power plants.
For example, at a thermal power plant's coal bunker silo, we replaced manual hammering with four units of the RKV100PA to resolve powder blockages. As a result, the blockage issue was eliminated, and work efficiency improved. We can also help you choose the right model based on your specific needs and environment, so please feel free to contact us.
