ROTARY SCREW AIR COMPRESSORS World-Leading Rotary Screw Air Compressors Kaishan USA is a premier supplier of rotary screw air compressors. Rotary screw air compressors are popular in factories, plants, and manufacturing facilities in general due to their ability to run non-stop around the clock. As long as a screw-type air compressor is sized correctly, its efficiency is superior to most other air compressors on the market. Rotary Screw Air Compressor Types There are two models of rotary screw air compressors on the market today: oil-injected and oil-free. Oil-injected rotary air compressors use oil injected into the screw compression chamber to lubricate the bearings, remove the heat of compression and seal the area between the two rotating screws to efficiently produce clean, cool compressed air. This process is sometimes known as an “oil bath” or “oil-flooded” lubricated compression. Oil-free rotary air compressors, on the other hand, do not flood their compression chambers with oil; rather, they operate at high speeds and very high temperatures with a dynamic seal and multi-staging to achieve respectable efficiencies. Oil-injected compressors will require more routine maintenance, but will have a lower total cost of ownership as compared to an oil-free screw compressor. Kaishan offers both oil-lubricated and oil-free rotary screw designs to fit any end-use application. We want our customers to have the best, which is why we only sell the best.
