There are different types of stainless steel to consider for manufacturing compressors. While they may all be made of steel, they have some properties that are unique to each grade, and as such, they are most suited for the particular machine and environment they will be used in. That is why we’ve outlined these stainless […]

There are several reasons why your compressor parts must be abrasion resistant and we’ll be outlining a number of these. If you have one or more machines running in your company, then compressor maintenance is required to ensure that your equipment can stand the test of time without breaking down when you least expect. Moreover, […]

Compressors that are used in the gas, chemical, and petrochemical industrial processes are made of several components, each of which strives to offer some level of support to the machine. These components have a role to play either in managing heat, aiding in rotation, enhancing the machine’s durability, narrowing gas flow, and even enabling other […]

Bad compressor valves can negatively impact an entire system, causing costly delays, eating into employee resources, and leaving productivity at a standstill. They are an important part of the work cycle of any compressor, and neglecting them can endanger the system as a whole. Undertaking routine preventative maintenance throughout and installing good quality compressor valves […]

Achieving maximum efficiency is every manufacturer’s goal; and that goal just got easier with these 5 tips to reduce manufacturing costs with compressor design. Maximum efficiency provides for faster production at less cost, can help lessen environmental impact, and makes for happier customers and distributors, who always appreciate savings. Focusing on compressor design can quickly […]

Precision laser cutting is an extremely important process in manufacturing to ensure every product is consistent and precise. A quality product arises from quality materials. In order to build reliable and efficient compressors, the machine’s plates must perform well in a variety of temperatures and conditions. One way a strong fit for a compressor plate […]

Machinery’s moving parts are subject to abrasion, which is the tendency of friction to weaken or wear down material. That’s why, from spacecrafts to airplanes to more earth-bound machines, attention to abrasion resistance is necessary. Abrasion resistance is the ability of machine parts, composite or pure materials, and entire structures to weather repeated friction. Strong […]

Lasers are utilized across almost every production and manufacturing process, which is why laser profiling is so important. Lasers are used in increasing amounts of production processes – in everything from industrial manufacturing applications to electronics design – to perform precise cuts, etch surfaces and create complex contours automatically. The advantages of handling cuts with […]

Many industries use compressors. Depending on your industry, do you know which are the best compressor materials for you? What do filling soft vehicle tires, coming into a cool house on a blazing hot day, or grabbing a snack from the fridge have in common? Each of these tasks requires the use of a compressor […]

A compressor valve is a simple mechanical device that seals a cylinder during compression. But what are the different parts of a valve, and what do they do?     A compressor valve has to be strong enough to withstand the high pressures of a compressor and often must be resistant to high heat and […]
