What Is a Rotary Compressor?
A rotary compressor is a mechanical device that intakes air and discharges it under high pressure.
It is widely used in various industries, including air brake systems in transportation, pneumatic tools, manufacturing, and construction. Rotary compressors are particularly effective in scenarios where a large-scale and continuous air supply is needed.
These compressors operate by rotating internal components to compress the gas, thereby generating high energy. This process is known for its efficiency and continuous air supply capability.
There are two primary types of rotary compressors: rotary screw compressors and rotary vane compressors. Rotary screw compressors use two interlocking spiral rotors to compress the air, while rotary vane compressors utilize a rotating shaft with small vanes to compress the gas.
