  • Air Cannon Sealing: The Hidden Factor Behind Performance

    This video highlights one of the most overlooked contributors to air cannon performance: proper sealing. Even when systems are equipped with the right pressure, tank size, and nozzle configuration, a compromised seal can significantly reduce effectiveness. Air loss at the valve or discharge point prevents energy from being fully delivered into the buildup zone, which…

  • Air Cannon Nozzle Design: Precision Over Power

    This video focuses on one of the most overlooked components of air cannon systems: the nozzle. While many operations prioritize tank size or pressure, the discussion highlights how nozzle design ultimately controls how energy is delivered into the process. Poorly designed or misapplied nozzles can disperse air inefficiently, reducing impact and allowing buildup to persist,…

  • Riser Ducts and Air Cannons with Jeff Shelton

    Material buildup in riser ducts continues to be a major source of inefficiency and downtime in cement and energy plants. In this discussion, Jeff Shelton highlights a key shift in approach: it’s not just about installing air cannons, but about placing and configuring them correctly. Many legacy systems rely on outdated positioning and nozzle designs…
