Air Compressor for Automotive

The automotive industry has seen a drastic growth over the last century, in the use of compressed air for assembly line manufacturing. Nowadays, an automobile industry is unimaginable to picture without an air compressor. Compressed air is indispensable in operating pneumatic tools that supports to power the machines that lift, transport, position and fasten the vehicle’s components. ELGi ELGi's compressed air technology designed for automotive industry are environmental friendly, low cost and highly efficient to meet the challenges of the industry.

While choosing the right sized air compressor for the automotive industry, it is very important to every application and its demand. ELGi offers a variety of screw compressors articulated principally for automotive industryscrew compressors exclusively designed for the automotive industry keeping in mind the requirements. ELGi air compressors ensure the best in class reliability and ease of use with trouble free operation.

USING AIR COMPRESSORS FOR AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY

The numerous technological advancements introduced in the automotive manufacturing industry have given rise to new uses of compressed air.

Varied applications of compressed air technology in automotive industry includes:

Plasma cutting – Plasma is generated by passing compressed air through a chamber containing a plasma electrode and a plasma cutting tip and by sparking an electric arc in the chamber. The heat of the Plasma Arc melts the metal to be cut, while the force of the air blows it away.ELGi’s screw air compressor come with a six years warranty on the airend, thus promising durability of the compressor.
Air operated robots – With the advancement in the field of robotics, air-operated robots now do almost all of the strenuous work done previously by a human. The reason they are called air operated is the abundant use of pneumatic pistons on the arms of these robots. From picking heavy objects to tightening nuts and bolts, these bots can do everything. Screw air compressors offered by ELGi are perfectly suited to operate these machines in the automotive manufacturing industry.
Tyre Inflation – Air compressor can be spotted at any gas station. The compressor used at gas stations is largely used to fill the air in the tyres. Compressors make the task of tyre inflation simple and help maintain the safety and reliability of your automobile.
Automobile Finishing – One of the most essential steps of automobile manufacturing is automotive finishing. The paint and clear coat serve as a protective layer to shield the vehicle from the elements. Improper automobile finishing leads to the formation of thin films, dry spay, crater, bubble and ripples which further leads to weakening of the paint and the automobile becomes vulnerable to rust and decay.
Air Tools - Most of the garages are shifting to air tools powered by compressed air due to their increased efficiency from the traditional electric-powered tools. One of the major advantages of using pneumatic tools over electric tools is light weight and lower operating cost.
