   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. Variable-speed air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-speed_air_compressor

   For example, 10–12% of all power generated in the UK is dedicated to the production of compressed air and a portion of this power is wasted energy. Large electrical cost savings can be achieved by installing a variable speed drive compressor in place of an existing rotary screw or piston machine.

4. High Pressure Pure Air Generator - Wikipedia

   As an example, a 250 HP compound compressor is a large piece of equipment that generally requires a special foundation, building accommodations and highly trained riggers to place the equipment. On the other hand, a 250 HP rotary-screw compressor can be placed on an ordinary shop floor using a standard forklift. Within industry, a 250 HP rotary ...

7. Compressed air - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_air

   Compressed air is an important medium for the transfer of energy in industrial processes and is used for power tools such as air hammers, drills, wrenches, and others, as well as to atomize paint, to operate air cylinders for automation, and can also be used to propel vehicles. Brakes applied by compressed air made large railway trains safer ...
