When your customers complain to you about insufficient air volume, do you solve the problem? Or open another machine?

Every year, a large number of customers ask us for new equipment, and there are many users. Their demand for buying compressors comes from his internal customers (such as production workshops) who put forward this sharp point to him. Problem: Not enough compressed air.

01. The compressed air is not enough to adjust the air supply of the whole system?

A common approach may be to adjust the air supply pressure of the entire system high enough so that when the above process action occurs, the pressure will not drop to the critical point of use. For this reason, most customers will choose compressors with higher pressure than their actual needs, and have enough spares. Some customers who are more experienced and can calculate the compressed air system will take this into account when selecting models, and plan the number of machines and the number of standby machines. However, whatever the choice, in most cases the result is unnecessarily high operating costs. Many people are emphasizing how the compressed air system consumes energy. In fact, you can find out the root of the problem through the improvement of some compressed air system knowledge, or with the help of compressed air manufacturers, and then solve your problem of high operating costs. .

02. Insufficient compressed air to increase a large enough air tank

Storing clean air when needed to support transient events in time is a very effective solution. It might seem like a bit of a mouthful to say, but simply add a large enough air tank to the transient event. This will allow you to regulate your needs at lower pressures all the time. By controlling demand, it is possible to operate the supply at good independent pressure, thereby optimizing the performance of the compressor and the entire compressed air system. You can get accurate compressor sizing design, pressure setting and good air supply performance with low requirements, even affect point-of-use quality to keep your entire air system working at good operating efficiency.

03. Insufficient compressed air to analyze leakage, dirty filter and other problems

Leaks, clogged filters due to contamination, and increased airflow in installed components can all cause pressure drops at the point of use of production equipment. In the process of air transmission, the pressure difference is proportional to the square of the increase in flow, and even a small leak will cause the pressure to drop, thus affecting the production quality. Most point-of-use filters rarely change the filter element; and in fact, most factories do not have filter replacement elements in their warehouses. Unfortunately, these problems are usually diagnosed as insufficient air supply, and then they immediately pick up the phone and tell the air compressor station operator to turn on the standby machine.

04. Insufficient compressed air for a detailed assessment of the production line

Occasionally, even if the customer's air system does not have an instantaneous high-flow compressed air application, it is common to see a drop in compressed air pressure throughout the air system. The reason for this problem may come from the aging of the gas point gas equipment, or the simultaneous use of multiple gas points produces an effect similar to the "instantaneous" gas consumption. If you want to solve these problems, you need to conduct a detailed assessment of each compressed air use point on the production line and find the problem after a certain professional calculation.

in conclusion

Not enough compressed air, adding a compressor is not the only option

Turning on a compressor isn't the only option, so is buying a compressor. Different selection and configuration will bring different effects. As a result, clients get better solutions with less investment. Otherwise, there will be an endless price war. The customer seems to save a little bit of initial investment, but the energy cost paid is ten times, or even a hundred times.
