Air compressor is a mechanical device used for compressing gases, widely used in various industrial and commercial fields. Their main uses include traditional aerodynamics, instrument control, and automation devices. Air compressors can be divided into various types, including screw compressors, reciprocating compressors, rotary compressors, etc. Each type has its unique working principle and applicable scenarios.
Screw type air compressor: Screw type air compressor is an air compressor with two types: single screw and twin-screw. Twin screw air compressors overcome the disadvantages of unbalanced and vulnerable bearings of single screw air compressors, and have advantages such as long service life, low noise, and greater energy efficiency. The screw air compressor adopts high-capacity compression components to achieve high efficiency and reliability, ensuring that the system and compressed air temperature are extremely low, and ensuring that all components achieve optimal cooling effect and maximum service life.
Reciprocating compressor: A reciprocating compressor is a type of positive displacement compressor, whose compression element is a piston that moves back and forth within a cylinder. The characteristic of this compressor is to directly increase gas pressure by changing the gas volume.
Rotary compressors: Rotary compressors include slide type compressors, liquid piston compressors, Roots double rotor compressors, etc., which achieve gas compression through the forced movement of rotating elements. For example, a slide type compressor compresses gas 2 by radially sliding axial slides on a rotor that is eccentric to the cylindrical cylinder body.
Speed type compressor: Speed type compressor is a type of rotary continuous airflow compressor, in which high-speed rotating blades accelerate the passing gas, converting speed energy into pressure. The conversion of this compressor occurs partially on the rotating blades and partially on the fixed diffuser or reflux baffle.
Micro air compressor: A micro air compressor consists of a fixed seat, a transmission device, and a compression device. The transmission device compresses and pushes gas through the linkage shaft and transmission gear, which has the advantages of good gas output efficiency, significant cost reduction, and easy assembly.
The choice of air compressor depends on specific application requirements. For example, screw air compressors are widely used in situations that require continuous and stable gas supply due to their high efficiency and effectiveness, while micro air compressors are suitable for situations where space is limited or portable gas supply is needed. Choosing the appropriate air compressor is crucial for ensuring smooth operation
