Needs of air compressor for car repair workshops

Car repair workshops use air compressors to carry out maintenance practices, and other automotive applications depending on your line of work. But generally, dry, impurity-free, compressed air is required at a stable system pressure to provide high-quality results for: 

 

  1. Pneumatic tools: These air-pressured tools and equipment are prefered over electrical tools because they are easy to operate and lightweight. 
  2. Tire inflation: Compressed air is used for pressure maintenance to avoid wear-and-tear. So for this purpose, we use air compressor for car tires.

  3. High-pressure washing and cleaning: When it comes to removing the dust from hard-to-rach parts of the car, like engine block or just simply washing the car, compressed air systems give power to these processes, getting the task done in an effortless manner. 

  4. Air compressor for car painting: Compressed air is used for surface treatment such as automobile painting and finishing to give the vehicle a high-quality aesthetic appeal. 

Why consider a piston compressor for your car workshop?

With the basic purpose of an air compressor being the consistent flow of air providing or pneumatic power to devices, choosing the right compressor is essential to efficiently meet the objectives. 

Piston compressors are the traditional and most widely used type of air compressor in car repair shops. They work by using a piston and cylinder arrangement to compress air. 

 

  • Cost-Effective: Piston compressors are generally less expensive to purchase and maintain compared to screw compressors.
  • Easy Maintenance: Their design makes them easier to maintain, as they have fewer moving parts and don't require complex timing adjustments.
  • Durable & easy to move design: Built to withstand harsh environments and reduce downtime. Going from standard metal wheels, to solid rubber wheels and built-in forklift feet.
