Abstract
The invention is directed to a system for removing fluid particles retained on containers, each having an open end and a closed end, after they exit from a washing operation wherein the containers are transferred from the washing operation to a drying operation with the open ends thereof facing in a downward direction and wherein the fluid particles are removed from the containers as they are transferred from the washing operation to the drying operation by passing air at relatively high velocities over at least the portion of the containers next adjacent to the open ends thereof wherein the flow of the high velocity air is generated by a vacuum source.
