Dry Fog Finds New Uses in Industry, Farming and Tourism
Learn more about Semi-Dry Fog, IKEUCHI’s term for a mist with slightly larger droplets than Dry Fog.
Precision Spraying for Better Process Control
Metal Foil Production: Cut Rolling-Oil Use by 50%
How can metal foil manufacturers reduce rolling oil use without compromising lubrication?
At one metal foil manufacturing plant, excessive oil consumption increased material costs and caused oil splashing and additional cleanup work.

Four Real-World Ways to Reduce Nozzle Maintenance
Clogging, frequent cleaning, and short nozzle life aren’t always inevitable.
Choosing the right spray nozzle can help prevent clogging, make cleaning easier—or even automate it—and extend nozzle service life.
One example is PCB stripping at nearly 100°C, where IKEUCHI developed a stainless-steel nozzle combining heat resistance with a quick-detach design for easier maintenance.
