Which is better, screw compressor or scroll compressor

In the selection of compression equipment, screw and scroll compressors each have their own technical characteristics and application advantages. The specific selection needs to be combined with actual gas demand and scene characteristics.

Screw compressors achieve gas compression through the rotating movement of screws and star blades (or twin screws). Granklin adopts single-screw water-adding lubrication technology and replaces traditional lubricating oil with water film, which not only ensures the stability of equipment operation, but also ensures zero oil residue in output air. Its structural design is suitable for medium and large flow air consumption scenarios. It has the characteristics of strong continuous operation capability and long maintenance period. It is suitable for industrial fields with high requirements for air cleanliness and stable air consumption.

Scroll compressors complete gas compression through the relative movement of moving scrolls and fixed scrolls. They are compact in size and low in noise. They are usually suitable for gas use scenarios with small flow and high frequency start-stop, such as small laboratories or light industry. Its structural characteristics determine that during long-term high-load operation, more frequent maintenance interventions may be required.

Granklin water-lubricated single-screw air compressor has significant advantages in oil-free clean gas use scenarios. Water lubrication not only avoids the risk of oil pollution, but also simplifies the subsequent purification process. For industries that need a continuous and stable supply of clean compressed air, such as food packaging, electronics manufacturing, medical equipment production, etc., this technology can provide reliable guarantee; if the air consumption scenario is dominated by small flow and intermittent demand, scroll compressors can also be used as an alternative.

It is recommended to comprehensively evaluate the gas consumption, continuity requirements and cleanliness standards of specific processes: screw technology is preferred for medium and large flow and high cleanliness needs; adaptation solutions can be selected based on equipment maintenance costs and space constraints for small flow and low load scenarios.
