   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. Compressed-air car - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed-air_car

   Diagram of a compressed air system with a PCM heat exchanger. A compressed-air car is a compressed-air vehicle powered by pressure vessels filled with compressed air. It is propelled by the release and expansion of the air within a motor adapted to compressed air. The car might be powered solely by air, or combined (as in a hybrid electric ...

4. Linear compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_compressor

   A linear compressor is a gas compressor where the piston moves along a linear track to minimize friction and reduce energy loss during conversion of motion. This technology has been successfully used in cryogenic applications which must be oil-less. The suspension spring can be flexure type or coil type. An oil-free valved linear compressor ...

5. Variable-speed air compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-speed_air_compressor

   A variable-speed drive (VSD) air compressor is an air compressor that takes advantage of variable-speed drive technology. This type of compressor uses a special drive to control the speed (RPM) of the unit, which in turn saves energy compared to a fixed speed equivalent. [1] This is done to improve the efficiency of the compressor as varying ...

6. Scroll compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scroll_compressor

   A scroll compressor (also called spiral compressor, scroll pump and scroll vacuum pump) is a device for compressing air or refrigerant. [1] It is used in air conditioning equipment, as an automobile supercharger (where it is known as a scroll-type supercharger) and as a vacuum pump. Many residential central heat pump and air conditioning ...
