NOZZLES
What
type of nozzles does Beam produce?
We
can make any of our skimmer models into nozzles. The smaller sizes are most
popular, such as the Model 5.1 or 10.2. Pricing for nozzles is listed on the
site here.
Beam
nozzles are made by removing the tip of the cone with no further machining at
the orifice edge.
Can
Beam make nozzles with very small orifice diameters?
Yes.
Because the machining doesn’t require producing the knife-like edge of a
skimmer, it is easier to produce a small orifice. Narrow apex included angles
can be made with the smallest orifice diameters and vice versa. Orifice sizes as
small as 0.05mm are possible.
Does
Beam offer any type of converging/diverging nozzle?
We
developed and produced two prototypes, both of which were sold. We have been
exploring alternative fabrication techniques and believe we may have found a
satisfactory solution. We will post a notice on the web site when we are ready
for production and sale.
