The Beauty of Thermoplastic Compressor Rings
Manufacturing high-quality compressor components is both an art and a science. Compressor rings are integral parts for any compressor. Metal rings have a long history, but advances have been made in developing other strong, durable materials that can withstand harsh operating conditions. Modern thermoplastics offer an attractive alternative to metal rings, and in the long…
Read MoreCompressor Valve Plates Manufactured for Durability
In order for a compressor valve to function at its maximum efficiency, each of its individual components must be well-constructed. This includes the sealing components, which in certain types of compressor valves are the valve plates. Carefully manufactured compressor valve plates perform better for longer periods of time. Metals and thermoplastics each have advantages…
Read MoreHow Thermoplastics Improve Your Equipment
Thermoplastics are one of the more recent innovations that have changed the game in heavy equipment, especially machines that use compressors. Intense research has led to very precise materials that can perform specialized functions dramatically better than their more generalized predecessors. This means that you can investigate upgrading components of your equipment without undertaking the…
