Dyson launches new £1000 tap hand dryer

British engineering company Dyson has recently announced the launch of its new tap hand dryer - dubbed the Airblade Tap - which, as per the manufacturer's claims, will avoid the spilling of water on the floor, and would also do away with the need of using towels.

The production of the £1000-priced tap hand dryer launched by Wiltshire-based Dyson is a result of the noteworthy efforts of the manufacturing team which was led by Paul Reid, a product design graduate from the Glasgow School of Art.

According to the details shared by Dyson, the Airblade Tap is made from anti-rust steel which is used for building boats. Revealing that the steel used for the tap hand dryer had been put through tests in which the water pressure was eight times more than that of standard taps, Dyson said that water is released from the dryer after the position of hands is located by infrared sensors of the device.

When the position of hands underscores a request for drying, the latest digital motor's operation begins, and air - travelling at a speed of 430 miles per hour - is pushed through the branches of the tap; with the hand-drying process completed in barely 12 seconds.

About the high-performance digital motor, which has been developed using complex computer modeling, Dyson's founder James Dyson said that the motor "self-adjusts 6000 times a second to maintain optimum efficiency to create a high velocity sheet of air that dries hands quickly and hygienically."
