Uses for a compressor

Domestically – can be used domestically for inflating tires, or using an air blower to clean dirt off machines, a floor or for painting. Most domestic compressors can also be used to power nail guns, saws and small hammers.

Industrial – Covers most industries – paint sprayers, production lines, robots, glass making, pharmaceutical & many more.

Some main things to remember before purchase:

  • Where the compressor is to be used?
  • Is a power source nearby?
  • How much CFM is required?

CFM

CFM is short for cubic feet per minute (cu ft/min). When a compressor is used the CFM is important. Some uses need a continuous air supply, things like a power hose or sand blaster. These will  need a higher CFM sized compressor as a lower pressure would not work correctly on the job. Shotblasters also use a high cfm when blasting. Large factories use a high CFM in manufacturing such as those making plastic bottles.

Other tools such as a nail gun or tyre inflator in a car garage only need short sharp bursts of air, and only when its needed. They will use a low CFM.
