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 most construction spots as they are extremely useful 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 other construction applications. They are designed to handle tough conditions and hard-to-reach site locations, delivering consistent performance. Compressed air in construction is also used to power pneumatic tools such as hammers, drills, saws, wrenches, nail guns and numerous others. One of the major advantages of using an air compressor on a construction site is the noise-free operation and easy maintenance they provide.
COMMON APPLICATIONS OF COMPRESSED AIR
Pneumatic Tools – Compressed air is an excellent source of energy to 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 a single air compressor can power each tool as needed instead of using various tools, each requiring its own power source.
Lifting and handling operation – Lifting and handling operations are unavoidable in the construction industry. Lifting operations can be carried out both manually and using lifting equipment. Lifting equipment and handling devices use a portable screw air compressor, which ensures 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 debris-free. 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. The easy manoeuvrability offered by ELGi portable screw air compressor makes it best suited for this process.
