3. Industry trends and technology development

energy-saving needs: With the improvement of industrial energy consumption standards, the demand for high-efficiency air compressors (such as permanent magnet frequency conversion models) is increasing.
intelligent management: Remote monitoring and automatic pressure adjustment of air compressors are realized through Internet of Things technology to improve operation and maintenance efficiency.
environmental compliance: Low-noise, oil-free lubrication technology has become the industry upgrade direction and meets the requirements of green factories.

case: A large textile factory uses a water-lubricated screw air compressor with a pressure of 5kg to drive 20 air-jet looms, equipped with freeze dryers and precision filters. The system energy consumption is 15% lower than that of traditional models, and the gas quality meets the standards, and the equipment failure rate is significantly reduced.

Will the screw air compressor automatically stop when it reaches the pressure?

Yes, when the pressure of the screw air compressor reaches the set upper limit, it will automatically shut down. The automatic start-stop function of screw air compressors is usually monitored and controlled through pressure sensors. When the pressure of the air compressor reaches the set upper limit value, the pressure sensor will send a signal […]

Airtight test requires the air compressor to be micro-oily or oil-free

In airtight testing applications, the cleanliness of compressed air directly affects test accuracy and product reliability. Granklin water-lubricated single-screw air compressor uses pure water as the lubricating medium. Oil substances are completely avoided during the compression process to ensure zero oil output air…

What is the role of oil-free air compressors in the chemical industry?

The role of oil-free air compressors in the chemical industry is mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1. Ensure the purity of gas and improve the quality of chemical products The chemical industry has strict requirements on the purity of compressed air. The oil-free air compressor does not use lubricating oil during operation, which avoids […]
