2. Air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

   Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.

3. Compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor

   An air compressor is a specific type of gas compressor. Many compressors can be staged, that is, the gas is compressed several times in steps or stages, to increase discharge pressure. Often, the second stage is physically smaller than the primary stage, to accommodate the already compressed gas without reducing its pressure.

4. Kaeser Compressors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaeser_Compressors

   Oil flooding at the point of compression provides cleaning, lubrication and cooling, which contributes to air-end efficiency. Sigma Profile air-ends are now found in a range of compressors from 3 to 650 hp (2.2 to 484.7 kW). Kaeser continues to refine and improve the air-end design up to 1000 hp.

5. Compressed air - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_air

   Air compressor station in a power plant. In industry, compressed air is so widely used that it is often regarded as the fourth utility, after electricity, natural gas and water. However, compressed air is more expensive than the other three utilities when evaluated on a per unit energy delivered basis. [9]

6. Joy Compressor - Wikipedia

   The 1970s saw Joy compressors grow in the US domestic market with much focus on engineered custom compressors for refineries and air separation. Joy centrifugal compressors are operated in dozens of applications throughout the world and are integral to the following industries: auto, glass, textiles, petrochemical, snow making, electronics ...

7. Pneumatic cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_cylinder

   Pneumatic cylinder, also known as air cylinder, is a mechanical device which uses the power of compressed gas to produce a force in a reciprocating linear motion. [1]: 85 Like in a hydraulic cylinder, something forces a piston to move in the desired direction. The piston is a disc or cylinder, and the piston rod transfers the force it develops ...
