WHAT IS AN AIR COMPRESSOR USED FOR IN CONSTRUCTION?
With about $10 trillion spent on construction-related goods and services every year, the construction sector is one of the largest in the world economy.
Portable / Towable air compressors can be easily spotted in many construction spots worldwide as they are beneficial due to their high output and efficiency. Heavy-duty portable air compressors are most robust and well-suited to the unique needs of road building, restoration work, civil engineering, and various other construction applications. They are designed to handle harsh site conditions and hard-to-reach site locations, delivering consistent performance. Air compressors in construction sites are also used to power tools on the site, such as power hammers, drills, saws, wrenches, nail guns, and numerous other pneumatic tools. One of the major advantages of using an air compressor on a construction site is thenoise-free operation and lucid maintenance.
Common Applications of Compressed Air
- Pneumatic Tools – Compressed air is an excellent energy source for power tools such as drills, jackhammers, impact wrenches, grinders, sanders, nail guns, and other vital construction equipment. The main advantage of using air compressors to power these tools is that instead of using various tools, each requiring its own power source, air compressors can power each tool as needed.
- Lifting and handling operations –Lifting and handling operations are unavoidable in the construction industry. Lifting operations can be carried out both manually and by using lifting equipment. Lifting equipment and handling devices use a portable screw air compressor, ensuring reliable and safe lifting and lowering of the load.
- Road digging, cutting, and cleaning - Road cleaning machines keep roads, pavements, and other hard surfaces clean and free from debris. Doing so helps in reducing the number of accidents. The road cleaning machines typically use portable air compressors.
- Tunnel digging – While digging a tunnel, the ground exerts hydrostatic pressure, which is opposed by the compressed air pressure at the cutter head. Easy maneuverability offered by the ELGi portable screw air compressor makes it best suited for this process.
