This was the challenge faced by Anderson Machine Manufacturing, a Richmond, VA-based company which builds custom machines for a broad spectrum of industries and applications. In 2009, one of their clients, a multi national corporation, sought Anderson Machine’s aid in creating a machine to compress and cool the components of an industrial-size gear box shaft.The 2-part cooling cycle necessary for the larger equipment involves using Vortec Curtain Transvector Air Knives to remove most of the heat, taking the temperatures of equipment from 350 to 150 degrees F. The Curtain Transvectors use compressed air, amplifying the air flow to rapidly dissipate heat by bringing more airflow (cubic feet perminute) to bear on the equipment. Curtain Transvector air knives bring more than three times the cooling capacity of standard nozzles. During this initial stage, machine operators can stop the process and take infrared temperature readings. In the second stage of the cooling process, four of Vortec’s Cold Air Guns model 630 cool the equipment, lowering the temperatures from 150 degrees F to under 110 degrees. The combination of the model 630 Cold Air Guns and Model 921 Curtain Transvector air knives bring the temperature of the large gear equipmentdown from 350 degrees to 100 degrees F in less than a minute. Vortec’s engineers realized that, although the Cold Air Guns effectively cooled smaller equipment, a two-stage cooling process was necessary to bring down the temperature of the larger, denser equipment. They suggested that Anderson retrofit the machine, adding a preliminary cooling phase. Vortec also recommended shifting to the larger, more powerful model 630 Cold Air Guns rather than the smaller model 610’s which were originally used. Make sure that glasses are always cold when you serve your guests with this range of gass frosters. Safely pulling down the temperature of glassware after it leaves the glasswasher, you'll never pour a pint in a warm glass again! A rechargeable 12V battery and a charger are included. With the original battery, the freezer can be operated for up to 7 days under optimal conditions without being charged.

Success breeds new challenges. Anderson’s clients were so pleased with the initial machine, that they requested a more advanced version. They wanted a machine capable of handling much larger pieces of equipment then their initial specifications had required. Anderson turned to Vortec for assistance in enhancing the design of the original machine to handle these new requirements. Laun’s previous experience working in the textile field led him to see a possibility for enhancing this cutting process through the use of air products. He notes that “I knew if we could keep the blade cool, we could continue cutting for a longer period of time and that would improve production times. I went looking online for an air products company. I compared a few vendors, and Vortec stood out as innovators in their field—they pioneered the idea of vortex technology, so it made sense to go with them.”

The client wanted extremely rapid cooling, so top of the line air equipment was a necessity. Since the components of the machine had to remain dry, mist cooling was not an option. Todd Anderson, Vice President and Mechanical Engineer at Anderson Machine, explains that “as a mechanical engineer, you know to do what you’re good at and find the best experts you can for other areas. We knew that in this case, meeting the client’s requirements meant finding an extremely high level of expertise in air technology.” Cold Air Guns use filtered compressed air (80-100 PSIG) and vortex tube technology to produce sub-zero air for industrial spot cooling. Cold air machining eliminates mist coolants and heat-related parts growth while improving tool life, parts tolerance and surface finish quality. With no moving parts to wear out, Cold Air Guns require no electricity at the target, just a compressed air source. Our Gamko units are able to cope with the demands of any busy bar and the perfect product to chill spirits or glasses. We also supply Infrico glass frosters, made from stainless steel and with their own integrated ventilated system known as Infricool which works to deliver you ice cold drinks or glasses 24/7. Glass chillers and frosters come with a choice of glass and solid door types which are reversible along with boasting a capacity capable of holding up to 80 pint glasses or 84 x 33cl glasses.
