Recent developments in rotary screw air compressors equipped with variable-speed drives have created new opportunities in many different applications. [...]
While the drive to conserve energy and control costs isn’t new, more and more companies are looking to rotary screw air compressors to help cut energy use and cost and reduce their carbon footprint. [...]
Thanks to the development of variable-speed drives and the addition of variable-discharge port technology, centralized vacuum systems have become a cost-effective alternative to the point-of-use vacuum pumps serving so many individual uses in a typical industrial plant. [...]
Believe it or not, air compressors have a long history, dating back thousands of years to some of the earliest epochs of human history. [...]
Most users today know the different types of compressors and how they work and function. They know that reciprocating compressors are inexpensive, the perfect machine when you have a small number of air tools that you use sporadically. [...]
If you want to keep your air compressor running reliably and efficiently, you need to take air compressor maintenance seriously. [...]
Any oil-flooded rotary screw air compressor has an oil lubrication system that seals the compression cycle, lubricates components and removes the heat of compression, lowering your system’s operating temperature. [...]
The many advantages of air-powered tools have made compressed air a critical fourth utility for industrial operations. [...]
Over the years, many suppliers of compressed air systems have developed laundry lists of tactics proposing ways to reduce expenditure [...]
