Compressors

Air compressors have a wide range of applications which apart from workshop usage includes spray painting, cleaning and inflation. Compressors use either an electric or a petrol motor to increase the pressure and reduce the volume of air which can then be used by compressor accessories. Industrial compressors are widely used for assembly, cutting, drilling, sanding and grinding. Each of these tools, widely used by professional and amateur mechanics alike, requires pressure of varying psi. Two of the standard assembly products that utilize compressed air are ratchet wrenches and impact wrenches. Upholsterers, flooring contractors, kitchen fitters and shed and furniture manufacturers use nail and staple guns to tackle work projects.

Compressors


The most widespread use of air compressors is for spray painting in the automotive industry. Apart from vehicles, spray paint guns are widely used for factory finishing of products. Quick and efficient cleaning can be achieved with air compressor accessories. Air dusting guns blow dust, gravel, wood chips and other dry waste. For wet cleaning jobs, a wash gun with an extra attachment for water can provide high quality cleaning results. Compressors can become extremely noisy and even damage flooring at high pressure. An anti-vibration foot kit can help combat these issues. In addition, moving a heavy compressor around a workspace is a tiresome task and investing in a set of castors and wheels may be a good option.
