FineTek BAH, BVP Air Hammer (Air Knocker), Piston Vibrator
Some blockages don’t respond to gentle vibration — they need a direct hit. The FineTek BAH/BVP air hammer, also known as an air knocker, is a heavy-duty pneumatic flow aid built on a strengthened aluminium body that strikes the vessel wall to knock stubborn material loose.
How It Works
Compressed air drives a piston that strikes directly onto the target surface, transmitting a low-frequency impact through the vessel wall to dislodge adhered material. Impact frequency and amplitude are adjustable, so the energy can be tuned to the vessel and the product.
