Micro vibration of rubber tip

Cyclone technology have been widely use in the industry or home appliance for separating dust from the dirty air. High performance cyclone requires high efficiency cyclone to separate dust. To achieve high efficiency cyclone, the cyclone geometry need to be modified. One of the geometry that can be...
