New Dyson motor powers three new Dyson Airblade hand dryers

Developed by a team of 125 Dyson engineers, three new Dyson Airblade hand dryers are the fastest, most hygienic and sustainable way to dry hands properly.

Conventional hand-dryers use one column of bacteria filled bathroom air to evaporate water from hands, after much hand rubbing.

Most people simply give up. Dyson Airblade hand dryers dry hands quickly and effectively using: Airblade technology - sheets of high velocity unheated air travel through tiny apertures at 430mph quickly scraping water from hands like a windscreen wiper, leaving them fully dry; the Dyson digital motor V4 - a power dense brushless DC motor, utilising a bonded magnet encased in a carbon fibre sleeve. It is one of the world’s smallest and fully integrated 1600W motors. Using digital pulse technology, it accelerates from 0-90,000rpm in less than 0.7 seconds; and HEPA filters - the Dyson Airblade hand dryer passes washroom air through a HEPA filter to remove 99.9% of bacteria before it’s blown onto hands.

James Dyson said: “Using complex computer modelling Dyson engineers have developed a high performance digital motor. The Dyson digital motor self-adjusts 6,000 times a second to maintain optimum efficiency to create high velocity sheet of air that dries hands quickly and hygienically.”

The Dyson Airblade Tap hand dryer washes and dries hands with no need to leave the sink. Infrared sensors pinpoint hand positions and release water from the tap stem. Once hands are wet and drying is requested, integrated circuitry computes the information and activates the latest Dyson digital motor, creating two high velocity sheets of air on the tap’s branches. Unheated clean air is released to scrape water off hands leaving them dry in 12 seconds.
Dyson Airblade V hand dryer
 
Dyson engineers have concentrated Airblade technology without compromising drying performance. The Dyson Airblade V hand dryer is 60% smaller than the original, yet dries hands fast.  Two sheets of high velocity air angled at 115 degrees span the width of each hand, and scrape off water.  Hands are dry in 10 seconds.

Dyson engineers have reengineered the Dyson Airblade hand dryer. Engineers removed 1.1kg of materials from the machine. It is HACCP  approved for hygiene, so it is safe for use in the food and beverage industry. Hands are dry in 10 seconds.
