After George Gille, John Kathe, and George Wall discovered there was no interest in their vacuum design where they worked, they found financial backing for a new company in the form of Elation and Maculae Irwin. The Wall Pump and Compressor Co., with headquarters and manufacturing located on Quincy’s riverfront, was born in July 1920.
By 1924, the company had expanded its line beyond its original products, vacuum pumps designed for milking cows and its name to Quincy Compressor Company. By that time, Quincy Compressor had begun selling reciprocating air compressors, and the company grew with the increasing demand for compressed air.
In 1937, Quincy Compressor introduced the Quincy QR-25, which has become an industry symbol of quality over the past 65 years. These same durable characteristics are present in all of Quincy’s complete reciprocating line, which is manufactured in Quincy, Illinois.
In 1980 we began machining and manufacturing operations in our Bay Minette, Alabama, plant, where we manufacture our rotary screw compressors and vacuum pumps. We expanded the Bay Minette plant’s capacity in 1996.
In 2004, we expanded into Kunshan, China, as we opened Q-Tech Air Systems, Ltd. Q-Tech currently employs about 35 people and is expanding. This facility assembles and tests Global rotary screw compressors. The first official production was in July 2004, and the official opening of the facility was in September 2004.
Today, Quincy Compressor is dedicated to delivering uncompromising reliability and performance, customized for the most demanding applications.

Agricultural Compressor Uses
While there are many uses for compressors on your farm, some of the compressors available may be more accommodating for some applications than others. By picking the right tool for the job, you ensure maximum productivity, energy efficiency and longevity in your farming equipment.
When considering a compressor for your farm, consider the energy demands required, the horsepower needed and how often you will be utilizing the device. Like other farming equipment, buying a product that is high-quality, can perform the task when needed and will last for decades is important.
Quincy compressors can be utilized in a variety of applications. When considering your application, also consider if the compressor installation can be stationary, or if a portable option may be more advantageous in certain situations.
Water Pumps – Water is essential to crops, livestock and sustainable pastures. Sometimes compressed air is needed to bring this vital resource to specific areas to optimize growth. By ensuring less downtime and longevity with your compressor, you ensure your livestock and crops have this essential ingredient for life.
Crop Sprayers – Many crop sprayers utilize compressed air, and a reliable compressor is essential in the daily operations of your farm. These types of automated crop sprayers require a large amount of air.
Product Conveyors/Pneumatic Material Handling Machines – Many product conveyors utilize compressed air. Quincy compressors are designed for both intermittent and continuous use.

Air Compressors in Manufacturing Environments
Today, manufacturers rely heavily on modern innovations and mechanical systems to assist in a variety of operation processes. Industrial buildings, pumping systems, material handling, primary processing, and the maintenance and repair of various machinery and equipment create a high demand for compressed air. Many day-to-day processes in the manufacturing industry require the use of air compressors that can generate an intermittent or continuous source of pressurized air. In fact, similar to other entities, many companies in the manufacturing industry consider compressed air the “fourth utility” because it’s so important to production. It’s like water or electricity, and essential to operations.
Manufacturers understand the need for air compressors with the capacity or CFM rating to deliver a continuous or intermittent supply of durable, dependable, clean, and efficient pressurized air. The wide variety of primary and auxiliary manufacturing activities and applications that require compressed air include:
General manufacturing – Clamping, stamping, tool powering and cleaning, controls and actuators
Furniture manufacturing – Air piston powering, tool powering, clamping, spraying, controls and actuators
Plastics, silicone and rubber manufacturing – Mold press powering, tool powering, clamping, and forming, injection molding
Metal Fabrication – Assembly station powering, controls and actuators, injection molding, tool powering, and spraying
Glass, Stone, Clay – Conveying, blending, mixing, controls and actuators, glass blowing and molding, cooling
Mining – Hoists, pumps, pneumatic tools controls and actuators
Food and Beverages – Dehydration, bottling, controls and actuators, conveying, spraying coatings, cleaning, vacuum packing
Quincy Compressor provides viable solutions to manufacturers with a need for a mechanical system to move power around their facilities.
Automotive Air Compressors
Throughout each stage of assembly, automotive air compressors dedicated to powering these processes deliver air to power to the most essential tools and operations along the production line.
Automobiles have traditionally been constructed of steel, though many component parts are now made of petroleum products like plastic, which have shaved significant amounts of weight off motor vehicles in recent decades. In any case, using pneumatic tools allows for the quick and easy assembly of car parts made from a variety of materials.
Vehicle assembly
The manufacturing of automobiles is carried out in several stages, the last of which occurs at the assembly plant, where parts from thousands of sources are combined to make the chassis and body of each individual car, truck and van. In most cases, vehicles are built from the bottom up, starting with the shell, which is set on a conveyer belt and braced to stay in place as it’s run down the production line.
Shell construction
The shell undergoes a series of additions while traveling along the assembly line past various hands and machine elements, which install everything from the gas tank, front/rear suspension and axles to the brakes, wheel drums and steering components. Throughout the majority of these steps, automotive air compressors play a vital role in putting each part into place with utmost precision and security.
Engine construction
Then comes the stage where the engine and transmission are brought together. For this task, robotic arms are used to put heavy pieces into place. Once the two components have been installed, technicians bolt down the radiator. During these stages, there’s a division of labor between the robotic arms, which do all the heavy lifting, and the human assemblers, who use air–powered wrenches to fasten each component screw. Over the decades, the tools used for these tasks have been made safer and more effective thanks to ergonomic studies regarding the flow of assembly.
Small parts
When it comes to the construction of the vehicle’s body, the largest number of smaller-piece attachments are made on the floor pan. Pneumatic tools are crucial throughout this stage, because they allow workers to accomplish in seconds what would otherwise take hours. With each shift along the assembly line, the clamp–shackled shell of the vehicle is put together, piece by piece.
Compressed air is also responsible for the role played by the robotic machinery, which lifts, transports, and positions the quarter panels, door pillars, side panels and roof pieces. Likewise, the shell of each vehicle is assembled more efficiently with the help of a robot because machine arms can bolt and weld numerous items with levels of speed and precision that far exceed human capabilities. Robots have the strength to set roof panels that weigh 200 pounds into the right position for welding. Throughout this process, robots are able to withstand the various hazardous elements of production, including smoke, gases and sparks.
The body and chassis of a vehicle are constructed on different assembly lines from one another. The majority of the panel-welding is done by robotic arms, while bolting is handled by technicians. While the welding is in progress, the shell is braced in a jig. Once the body is rotated out of the secluded welding section, additional parts are added, such as the doors, hood, fenders and bumpers. Afterwards, the shell is connected to another conveyor to undergo the painting part of the process, during which the shell is inspected, cleaned, undercoated, top-coated and baked.
Cleaning
Before the actual painting commences, the body of the vehicle must be thoroughly examined for possible surface defects. The inspection process is carried out in a white room under bright lights. Here, the body is covered in hi-light oil, which makes it easier for technicians to spot any problems with the sheet metal along the hood, roof, bumpers, fenders and doors. If bumps, dents or scratches are detected, repairs are made and the body is then sent along the conveyer to be rinsed free of oil and other possible foreign elements.
Painting
Once the body is finished with the cleaning, it goes to another stop along the conveyer to dry. Up next is the first actual painting stage, where the body receives an undercoat of primer across every inch of the outer shell. This forms a substrate layer that allows for a more solid adherence of the outer coat of paint. Before the topcoat is applied, however, the body is sent back to dry once again. Finally, the main coat of paint is applied across the outer car parts.
In most contemporary automotive plants, coats are applied by robotic arms, which are programmed to monitor exactly how much paint is needed across every inch of each vehicle. The shiny finishes that are preferred by many of today’s car owners are the result of well-studied engineering into the capabilities of robotic technology. It’s a far cry from the methods that existed a century ago, when cars were painted in the same way as houses, with brush in hand.
These innovations have been made possible by the power of automotive air compressors. They’re able to keep moisture levels low while providing consistent power levels to pneumatic tools throughout the complex steps involved with assembling and painting each vehicle that passes along the conveyor belts.
After the vehicle body has received both the primer and topcoat, it’s sent to another area to be baked at a temperature of 275° F. With the body now painted, the next steps involve the installation of interior components.
Preparation
The body proceeds down the conveyer to an area where interior assembly is performed. Here, technicians install the full range of interior pieces, including the seats, door panels, dashboard, clutch, pedals, lights, radios, mirrors, vents and speakers. Glass parts are also installed at this stage, including the windshield and door windows. The former is set into place via suction cups at the end of robotic arms, which move the glass panel out of its delivery container and into place at the front of the dashboard. For extra protection, urethane sealer is applied along the edges of the windshield before it’s set into place.
Installation
Transportation of the heavier interior components, such as the panels and seats, is also performed by robotic arms. This frees the technicians from some of the more grueling aspects of labor and allows them to instead focus on bolting everything tightly and securely into place. Once the interior is finished and each window is set into frame, the vehicle is passed to another area where it undergoes a water test. The purpose here is to ensure that the doors and windows are tight, snug and foolproof.
Finally, the stage arrives where the body and chassis are joined together. The former is lifted and set down onto the latter via robotic arms, but technicians perform the final acts of assembly. These involve bolting the two components together with pneumatic tools powered by automotive air compressors. The workforce is split between two levels, with some technicians doing their parts at ground level and others operating beneath the vehicle from a work pit. After the bolting is complete, the vehicle is passed down the conveyer to another group of workers who install the battery, apply the tires, pump the gas tank and fill the oil and coolant reservoirs.
The vehicle is now ready to be powered up and driven. Its first destination is a nearby checkpoint, where the vehicle is assessed for performance and quality on all fronts: Tire balance, engine/charging power, light/horn operation and more. If any part is found to be lacking in terms of functionality, the vehicle is sent to an adjacent area where repair workers troubleshoot the problem. Once the vehicle has passed this stage of the inspection, it’s appraised for its market value and set with a price tag. From there, the vehicle is taken to a shipping lot, from which it will ultimately travel to a dealer’s lot, either domestically or abroad.
Audits
The various parts that make up a vehicle are produced at different locations. Therefore, the planning of each vehicle is a complicated process, since every single part has to be produced, tested, readied and delivered on the date when production is set to commence. In order to ensure that everything is ready when needed, car makers stipulate that component manufacturers must test and inspect all vehicle parts prior to shipment. This allows the assembly plants to ensure that all incoming parts bear the Statistical Process Control (SPC) seal of approval and are defect-free.
Quality control
When components are first put together at an assembly plant, a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is given to each new car, truck or van on the production line. This allows the specialists in charge of overseeing the process to trace the development of each vehicle from “embryonic” to fully-built form. In doing so, quality control is executed on a step-by-step basis during the assembly of each vehicle, and imperfections are rectified before a body shell or chassis is sent to the next set of hands.
This marks a dramatic improvement from the days when inspections and corrections were only performed on finished vehicles, because money and time are saved in the process of assembly. Today’s assembly plant efficiency has all been made possible by automotive air compressors, which give tools the exact power needed to perform the required functions with utmost precision and speed.
At repair shops, automotive air compressors specified for this application are used to perform maintenance on numerous vehicles, some of which need new coats of paint. Whether the job involves touching up an existing coat or redoing the paint job altogether — either with the same color or something else completely — a particular type of compressor is needed to ensure the right amount of pressure is released with virtually zero moisture.
DIY
If you’re handy with vehicles, and you prefer to do your own car maintenance, you could repaint any vehicle in your garage with a pneumatic airbrush. All you need is an air compressor that can deliver the exact consistency needed for even, splotch-free coats. As you shop around for the best air compressor for painting, it’s crucial to note the capacity of a given airbrush in terms of consumption, pressure and horsepower (hp). The average amount of air that a tool consumes is defined by cubic feet per minute (cfm). For brushes used in automotive paint jobs, consumption levels are down in the 7-15 cfm range. An automotive air compressor with 3 hp will deliver right in the middle of the airbrush’s consumption range, at 10.5 cfm.
Dryers and Filtration for Error Free Painting
Achieving the perfect paint job at home also requires clean, dry, and contaminate-free compressed air. The dreaded fish-use effect results from pockets of fluid that invade the air stream. Properly used air dryers and filtration ensure a smooth mirror finish with airbrush paint products.
Capacity
To a lot of car owners, the idea of do-it-yourself maintenance seems physically intimidating. Thankfully, automotive air compressors remove much of the physical strain that would otherwise accompany the work involved in fixing engine parts and pumping or replacing tires. An air compressor with a capacity of 2.5 hp, 21 gallons and 125 psi can easily be powered up via standard outlets and used to operate pneumatic tools. For the average car owner, the compressor will easily power a simple air-impact wrench, which can be used when working on the timing belt of a front-wheel-drive car to get the front-crank pulleys removed as needed.
Tools/Functions
A variety of other car repairs can also be accomplished in a home garage or driveway with help from a small-to-medium-sized automotive air compressor. For removing nuts and bolts, an air ratchet makes it easy for virtually anyone to get the job done faster than would otherwise be possible with an old-fashioned hand wrench. When it comes to grinding metal like they do at assembly plants and repair shops, an air grinder brings the whole job home with a simple plug-in.
Likewise, the job of cutting metal can be handled by the average car owner with a small, easy-to-operate air saw. Further pneumatic car tools that can be powered by a home-operated, automotive air compressor include vacuum machines and air-powered pressure guns, which can respectively be used to suck out air and check for leaks in cooling systems.
Medical / Dental Air Compressors
It’s hard to think of an industry where precision is more important than healthcare. This unwavering focus on meticulousness and accuracy certainly extends to the wide range of air compressor equipment that is used in medical and dental offices, clinics, hospitals, laboratories and surgical centers. Quincy Compressor can provide a medical or dental air compressor that can ensure a consistent, uninterrupted power delivery when using air-driven equipment and machinery in a healthcare setting.

Air Compressors for Dry Cleaners
Dirty air means a dirty environment, and that defeats the purpose of taking clothing, linens and other garments to a dry cleaner. You want to provide your customers with optimal service, and that means using clean compressed air to run equipment, clean clothing and keep things operating smoothly.
Chemical cleaning applications are the future of the dry cleaning industry, and that’s why we’ve created this guide to look at the benefits and must-haves in today’s air compressors for dry cleaning. We’ll help you pick the right model to deliver precise amounts of compressed air on demand, for cleaning all types of garments in multiple types of applications.
For a dry cleaning press, you’ll want to look for an air pressure range of 70 to 90 and an average free air consumption (CFM) of 3. Read on for more considerations and a little help understanding what those elements mean for the best air compressors for dry cleaning businesses like yours.
Standard Air Requirements for Dry Cleaners
Every dry cleaner runs a unique operation of chemical processes, storage, on-site or off-site treatment and other business practices. Based on these concerns and others like the size and volume of business, each dry cleaner will need a specific air compressor setup designed and installed just for them.
That said, there are elements of each air compressor for dry cleaning systems that should be consistent. Here are some of the most important and most requested features we at Quincy Compressor have seen of those in the dry cleaning business.
Class 0 air quality
Compact, space-saving design
Easy to operate and maintain
Energy efficiency is a must
Low operating and maintenance costs
Quiet operation throughout
Supports environmentally friendly fluids and materials
Variable speed control options
Very reliable air quality and compressed air production
There are two types of air compressors for dry cleaning that deliver the precision you require: rotary screw and reciprocating. Each can meet the demands of chemical applications in order to ensure your operations properly clean and prepare clothing and linens, so that customers are satisfied and continue to come back to your business.
Rotary Screw Air Compressors for Dry Cleaning
Rotary screw air compressors are a time-tested and proven model that deliver high levels of reliability and efficiency. Those suited for dry cleaning applications use two meshing helical screws to perform the compression.
Rotary screw compressors are often recommended because they’re among the easiest to maintain and operate, even as they move into larger outputs. Quincy Compressor specializes in highly efficient models that use the latest in modern technology. For dry cleaners, we often recommend the QGS Series because they offer flexible installation options and operate extremely quietly, while offering a range of 5 to 100 HP.
Reciprocating Air Compressors for Dry Cleaning
High-pressure applications in dry cleaning required for uses such as solvent recovery and plant maintenance may be best served through a reciprocating air compressor. These models will use a crankshaft-driven piston or pistons to deliver air at high pressure and maintain their status as the workhorse of your operations.
Reciprocating compressors can scale up significantly for your operations thanks to the development of single-stage and two-stage models. Quincy can help you maximize overall productivity and efficiency by selecting the right unit designed for light applications like your dry cleaning business.
Challenges for Air Compressors in Dry Cleaning
Laundry and dry cleaning systems need to use the cleanest air possible because dirty air destroys service quality. This means your air compressor system should discharge to an air receiver and then flow through at least two filters and a dryer. All of these elements work together to remove debris and water from the air you use. Sometimes it can be difficult to line everything up properly based on size, location and usage constraints.
It may be worth turning to a smart partner like Quincy Compressors to discuss air compressors for dry cleaners if you have an existing system that faces challenges. Maintaining pressures throughout your operations can be a concern when you apply it to washers, assisting with clothes folding and much more.
Here are just a few of the challenges faced by dry cleaners large and small:
Ambient inlet air conditions
Compressed air treatment such as drying and filtering
Generated heat from nearby machinery
Inconsistent maintenance due to placements that aren’t easily accessed
Noise that can disrupt employees and machinery
Piping design and bends that produce excess condensation
Space and placement concerns in facilities with a variety of hanging equipment
While many on the outside don’t realize it, you know your dry cleaning operations, and the industry overall has very exacting methodologies with tight requirements that ensure you deliver a very specific quality and service. That’s why businesses like yours view compressed air to be as important as water. Often times, compressed air is seen as the fourth utility in industrial settings.
A dry cleaner will need to have access to accurate amounts of air at specific compression rates and speeds on demand. Whenever you turn on your air compressor, you need the pressure to be available and it has to be quiet so your employees can operate routinely without harm or in a distracting workplace.
Many dry cleaners operate on thin margins and have worked hard to know the number of workers they need for each shift in order to meet demand, while controlling costs. This strict adherence means you demand high-quality work from everyone, and we feel that should include your air compressor too.
Quincy Compressor works with many dry cleaning clients to help find the right mix of consistent air quality and overall cost, with efficiency always in focus. Work with us and potentially find savings and time to put toward growing your business instead of not properly operating or maintaining your equipment.
Compressed Air Piping Systems
Dry cleaners are able to beat many industry problems when they adopt a compressed air piping system, saving money on operations while also increasing operational efficiency. Airnet Piping Systems offer a flexibility installation process that’s straightforward but can be adjusted to meet the specific demands of a dry cleaning business.
Piping systems ensure that a business is delivering high-quality pressurized air through any dry cleaning deployment.
To optimize piping systems, dry cleaning store owner and machinery expert Edmund Bagnell provides a few tips that Quincy can help you include in your system:
Ensure it is easy to control pressure because pressure drops “are directly correlated with the rise in cost of these piping systems.”
Create a system with no — or as few as possible — bends to streamline the system and help maintain high levels of pressure. You’ll also avoid condensation and other issues that often occur in the bends of the system.
Install your system above the ground. Underground systems are harder to maintain and clean, can be dirtier and often waste more water than those installed above ground.
Install systems in places where workers will have easy access in the future. If a worker has to put weight on other equipment to perform routine maintenance, then you risk damage to both the piping system and the equipment that’s being leaned upon during the maintenance.
Advanced Oil-Free Needs
Dry cleaners often times require an oil-free system because it helps to ensure that an air compressor pushes out clean air and typically allows you to operate as needed with less noise.
For example, heavily soiled garments might need to be jet steamed in order to be properly cleaned. This requires oil-free compressed air in order to evaporate the solvents that are left over from the cleaning.
The smaller pressure and volume requirements of many dry cleaners means that an oil-free compressor can operate at the required level of CFM and PSI to accomplish your goals. These units can be also lighter weight and less expensive, which is important for operations where margins are relatively thin.
Reducing costs is a chief concern for Quincy Compressor when it comes to suggesting the right air compressor for dry cleaning businesses, and that’s why we also promote units that are smart about your energy use.
Costs of Compressed Air
Through a study of the industry and our clients, Quincy has observed that roughly 76% of your air compressor costs are just in the electricity required to operate it. Larger industrial air compressors can ring up an electric bill as much as $800,000 over the course of 10 years.
To help our clients combat these costs, we focus on energy-efficient models that reduce overall energy consumption. We also invite you to consult with a representative to match your compressor to the air pressure requirements of your applications and tools.
We’ve also put together a general industrial air compressor savings guide to help you properly maintain your compressor and costs. This plan helped Mega Brands Inc. reduce the cost of its air compressor usage by more than half.
Managing Energy Costs
As previously noted, energy bills can reach up to a quarter of your operational costs. Compressed air systems are often touted as a great energy saver because they can ensure consistent application of your cleaners while reducing maintenance costs and coolant costs for your industrial equipment.
For dry cleaners, poorly maintained systems can waste 25% to 35% of their air due to leaks alone.
There are steps dry cleaners can take to further ensure that their air compressors are operating at peak efficiency. The great news for dry cleaners is that your maintenance is simple and most fixes are extremely quick. Quincy Compressor can help businesses like yours prep and clean their air compressors and provide resources for you to remember what to check.
Some of the most important aspects for your business will be:
Regular cleaning of intake vents
Checking and cleaning air filters
Monitoring heat exchangers, removing debris and cleaning based on your model
Occasionally, a business like yours will need to perform a more thorough check of your air compressor system in order to ensure that things are working properly and that you’re doing the right maintenance to extend its life for as long as possible. Part of this process includes using an ultrasonic leak detector to check for air leaks in distribution lines. Again, modern conveniences have turned this check into a handheld unit that most businesses can also rent and operate on their own.

Food & Beverage Air Compressors
Contamination from compressed air is a major source of concern for the food and beverage industry. Modern manufacturing and production facilities use compressed air in multiple ways, increasing the potential for contamination if the machinery is not working properly.
These processes require compressed air to be clean, dry and free of contaminants to ensure your production is running smoothly. Your goods need to meet rigorous safety and quality inspections, and dirty air can introduce problems at almost any point in your process.
Why Put Contamination Risk First?
Eliminating contamination is your primary concern when including any new system into your operations. Your air compressor decision should be the same.
In the United States alone, foodborne illnesses are expected to cost roughly $55.5 billion each year in medical treatment costs, lost productivity and illness-related mortality, impacting about 9 million Americans. If any foodborne illnesses are traced back to you, chances are likely your operation could suffer from product recalls and potential litigation.
The risk to you is often extremely expensive. Roughly half of all food recalls will cost a company more than $10 million, and losses of up to $100 million have been reported.
In 2016, there have been major recalls for pet food products. Food recalls happen for a variety of reasons, from major contaminations to improper labels, all of which may occur throughout a supply chain. Take care to guard against it.
To ensure you have a safe air compressor system, work with Quincy Compressor to locate the best air compressor for food and beverage applications.

Stable Air Pressures: No other compressor delivers more consistent air pressure or more efficient low-pressure air for open blowing than a Quincy compressor.
Energy Savings: Through the application of its patented EQ/ Efficiency Quotient, Quincy can quickly and accurately define the potential energy savings a substantial woodworking operation can expect to capture by bringing its facility more into line with Best Practices.
On-site generation gives compressed air a definite advantage over other powers sources. The majority of companies that manufacture and process products use compressed air in some form because of the ability to have more control over usage and quality. For instance, different companies that perform woodworking and lumbering processes need dependable, high pressure air to move heavy loads and conduct spark-free operations.
For smaller-sized companies, like those doing custom woodworking, a reciprocating air compressor is a popular choice. For high-volume furniture manufacturing and for sawmills, the rotary screw design is what gets the job done.
With so many ways that compressed air is used in the woodworking industry, we’ve highlighted the applications of pneumatics for wood processing, then described some possible options for air compressor systems in both sawmills and furniture manufacturing. We’ve also given some recommendations and references for a full system assessment that will identify areas of improvement to have your air compressor system running as lean as possible.
Pneumatic Reliability for the Harsh Environment of Wood Processing
Compressed air is used in many industries for power when the alternatives are unsafe and unclean. Wood processing involves considerable temperature fluctuations, high power demand, dirty environments and continuous operation. The advancements in compressed air technology has made it the ideal source for equipment and tool power — especially when it comes to electronic controls and hardware.
A sawmill uses pneumatic air cylinders for a variety of applications. Our modern sawmills work at high-speed production rates and depend on the stable air pressure for the fast-paced and demanding environment. Some of the uses of air cylinders are:
To sort lumber by size and length into bins with a bin-diverter air cylinder.
To cut the lumber for maximum value using a “cant optimizer” to position the cant (lumber) appropriately.
To cut logs to the standard lumber length with a conveyor and log-kicker to push the log off at just the right time to the transfer deck.
To hold down a log with hold-down rolls and activate the lift.
In furniture manufacturing, cabinetry and many other manufacturing industries, air compressors work mainly to power production lines of air tools and factories that have light and heavy air needs. Some of the uses of woodworking pneumatics are:
To power hot melt dispensing applications.
To coat surfaces with automated sprayers or air-powered hand tools.
To automate nailing.
To control movement of wooden boards.
To power drill feed systems.
To monitor various aspects of production for quality control.
The quick, efficient operation and versatile cushioning that comes from pneumatics makes it an ideal solution for the high-production needs of lumber processing and detailed needs of furniture manufacturing. Yet it is also ideal for fine craftsmanship and precision work. The wide array of production-enhancing applications that can be implemented through an compressed air system is what makes it ideal in woodworking and any other manufacturing facility.
The Best Air Compressors for Every Woodworking Application
From the start of wood processing in sawmills to the finishing line in a furniture manufacturing plant, compressed air is vital to various steps in production. Pneumatics play an important role in felling trees, operation of tools and automating operations. Blowers can be designed to create a low-vacuum, high-flow setting to reduce product rejections. Vacuums can be used to secure wood for accuracy.
The advancing technology in air compressor designs and applications makes them highly reliable and flexible for the woodworking industry to be a favored solution for a number of manufacturing inefficiencies.
Upgrading your air compressor system or choosing the best air compressor for your industry needs to be done with professional assistance to evaluate your intended processes or expansion. However, we have a basic outline of some of the possible options geared to sawmills and furniture manufacturing.
The Best Air Compressor for Lumber Processing
The typical compressed air system in a sawmill will be the highest user of electricity. A large sawmill will have a number of air compressors that deliver 600-1000 horsepower. The majority are oil-flooded rotary screw designs that provide a reliable and high-performing power source.
When freezing temperatures hit, sawmills need to deal with system issues related to the freezing air / water from compression. A major factor in efficient operation of a compressed air system are desiccant air dryers that dry the system air to a -40 F dewpoint. With dryers in place, there is no freezing happening in air valves, and the performance of air cylinders is enhanced.
Another helpful system element for sawmills is an air receiver to act as a trim receiver. In a high-production sawmill, there could be a 10,000-gallon air receiver tank to store air that is immediately available when airflow is in peak demand. With the various compressed air operations that take place in a sawmill, the need for short supply of high volumes of air can happen often enough that the lag time for an air compressor to reload takes valuable time away from production and profit.
Working in tandem with large storage tanks is the demand controller that levels out the pressure swings in the mill and can instantly supply the plant with large amounts of air when there is a sudden demand. A sequencing control system is also installed to manage the whole system with several sensors to monitor temperatures, pressures and the flow and wattage used by the compressor motors.
Advancing electronic controlling has made air compressor systems more efficient, especially with specific customization for the mill operations and unique system setup. The control system can provide mass volumes of data that can be used to identify various metrics like how each compressor runs loaded and unloaded. You can also have the control system maintain a desired PSI throughout and have full control over pressure to be able to safely experiment with lower pressure rates.
The Best Air Compressor for Furniture Manufacturing
As a furniture manufacturer grows over the years, so too will its air compressor system. A company that starts out in a single building with one air compressor can eventually expand their operations with any number of different air compressors and dryers operating in separate buildings. Large manufacturers will be mainly depending on rotary screw air compressors for their source of air, but they may also be using reciprocating air compressors for certain areas of production. Custom woodworking shops and small manufacturers can be adequately supplied with one or more reciprocating piston compressors.
Since air tools are often the main source of air demand, compressed air needs are determined by the air usage needed for each tool. In a system assessment performed for an expanding furniture factory, they determined that the air tools needed to expand their framing and upholstering operations would increase their air usage by 400 CFM. They were operating one of their buildings with 13 framing tools, 27 upholstering tools and 25 sewing tools, each rated at 5.2 cfm. This would be increasing to 34 framing tools and 83 upholstering tools, while the sewing line would remain the same.
Whether you’re looking at starting up as a furniture manufacturer or expanding an existing operation, there are various calculations that can help you establish how big your air compressor system needs to be in terms of pressure, air usage and storage. You’ll also need to determine what other elements are needed like dryers, blowers and vacuums.
Full System Assessment for a Cost Effective Operation
Improve your bottom line through energy assessments and upgrades that look at all areas of your compressed air system. Wood processing plants spend a significant amount on energy consumption. By analyzing energy use on an annual basis, you can benefit from improved efficiency in various areas.
Considering that around 76% of the lifetime operating cost of an air compressor is from electricity, a complete compressed air system assessment will produce a number of options from eliminating air leaks to major system upgrades. By making some or all changes from a system analysis, the savings in energy can give you an attractive long-term return on investment.
Here is a brief list of some areas related to your compressed air system that could help you reduce energy costs in your woodworking facility:
Pneumatic tools and accessories. Proper maintenance and operation of air tools is one of the simpler ways to improve efficiency. Changes could include:
Using the right tool for the job.
Ensuring operators are trained properly on efficient tool operation.
Cleaning and adjusting tools properly for the application on a regular basis.
Installing local pressure regulators adjusted to the lowest pressure needed for the job.
Having dedicated storage at the end-use equipment to prevent pressure loss system-wide.
Implementing a preventative maintenance plan to regularly check hoses and quick-disconnect fittings that are a common source of air leaks.
Buying new tools that are appropriately sized for the application — not oversized and using more air than needed.
Inappropriate end use. Eliminating wasteful applications of compressed air can offer quick savings with little expense. Some of the typical inappropriate uses are:
A trained operator using an ultrasonic acoustic detector.
Checking for leaks during production time and during off-hours.
Identification (with tagging), tracking, repairs and employee awareness.
Air storage. Short surges in air demand can be efficiently handled by properly sized air storage. This will reduce the frequent occurrence of wasting air through compressor unloadings. With pressure regulators and adequate storage (for oil-flooded compressor: 4 gallons of storage for every 1 cfm of compressor capacity) you will be in the position to run a lean production line.
Equipment and controls. Upgrading your compressor or air system equipment may have you thinking about the major cost. While the price of new equipment and installation is certainly a considerable investment, it just may be the route you need to take for an efficient system. Even though you may have high upfront costs, the biggest expense of compressed air is mainly from the electricity needed to operate your compressed air system.
If you have an older system, you may not be getting the benefits of energy saving features like:
Getting a thorough compressed air system assessment done will give you a plan to be able reduce your costs and have a more dependable production facility. Ideally, you’ll be able to use existing equipment more efficiently and implement practices and procedures that will reduce unnecessary demand.

There are signs of the virus spreading rapidly across the city of 12 million people.
Ho Chi Minh City reported nine more cases of the Zika virus on Thursday, raising the total infections in the city to 30 and in Vietnam to 39.
The health department said the patients live in 11 out of the city’s 24 districts.
Admitting that there are signs of the virus spreading widely across the city, the department has set up six special task forces to prevent new infections and detect new cases.
The department said it will fumigate the areas on a regular basis to eliminate mosquitoes, while calling on residents to clean their houses. The population of Aedes aegypti mosquito, a vector species for the Zika virus dengue and yellow fever, has increased significantly in the area since the rainy season.
People are advised to have blood tests if they develop rashes together with either high fever, conjunctivitis, red eyes or joint or muscle pains. The city is providing free tests at 30 public hospitals which will send them to the Pasteur Institute’s epidemiology center for testing.
Tran Dac Phu, director of the Preventive Health Department, said HCMC has a high risk of infection due to its large population, which is around 12 million including migrants.
There is a lot of mobility around the city while “hygiene is not very good”, Phu said.
HCMC declared a Zika pandemic after confirming the fifth case two weeks ago.
Vietnam has confirmed 39 Zika infections in the southern and central regions since the first two cases were discovered in HCMC and the central province of Khanh Hoa in April.
Other patients have been hit by the virus in the provinces of Binh Duong, Dak Lak, Khanh Hoa, Long An, Tra Vinh and Phu Yen . In Dak Lak, a 4-month-old baby has been confirmed as Vietnam’s first case of microcephaly caused by Zika.
The health ministry said people should avoid mosquito bites and use condoms to avoid contracting the virus.
Health officials said both men and women should avoid traveling to places where Zika cases have been confirmed if they plan to have children.
The U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention has recommended that women wait at least eight weeks after possible exposure to the Zika virus before becoming pregnant. Men should wait six months.
According to the World Health Organization, Zika outbreaks have been reported in around 70 countries and territories.
More than 2,000 babies have been born with Zika-related microcephaly or other birth defects around the world, according to the latest WHO report. Brazil has reported over 1,800 cases of Zika-related microcephaly; the U.S. has reported 23.
The birth defect appears in 1-10 percent of babies whose mothers contract the Zika virus during the first trimester. Thailand reported two cases of microcephaly linked to the virus in late September, which were the first in Southeast Asia.
Singapore has confirmed 41 cases of locally transmitted Zika virus, mostly among foreign construction workers, and said it expected more cases to be identified.
All but seven of those infected had fully recovered, the Health Ministry and the National Environment Agency said in a statement on Sunday. The seven remain in hospital.
On Saturday, authorities confirmed a 47-year-old Malaysian woman living in southeastern Singapore as the city-state’s first case of a local transmission of the virus.
Zika, carried by some mosquitoes, was detected in Brazil last year and has since spread across the Americas. The virus poses a risk to pregnant women because it can cause severe birth defects. It has been linked in Brazil to more than 1,600 cases of microcephaly, where babies are born with small heads.
Singaporean authorities said they tested 124 people, primarily foreign construction workers employed on a site in the same part of Singapore. That site has been ordered to halt work, and workers’ dormitories are being inspected. Seventy-eight people tested negative and five cases were pending. Thirty-four patients had fully recovered.
Four Singaporean men had developed symptoms of the virus in the past week and were hospitalized on Saturday. It was not clear where the foreign workers were from or when their cases were detected. Singapore hosts a large contingent of workers from the Asian subcontinent.
None of those infected had traveled recently to Zika-affected areas. “This confirms that local transmission of Zika virus infection has taken place,” the statement said.
The ministry “cannot rule out further community transmission since some of those tested positive also live or work in other parts of Singapore,” the statement said. “We expect to identify more positive cases.”
The World Health Organization said in a statement on Sunday that it did not know “which lineage of Zika is circulating” or “what the level of population immunity is to this lineage of Zika in Asia.”
“It is important for countries to remain vigilant through surveillance for cases, to continue vector control, to inform people about Zika and how they can protect themselves, and to have the health system ready to supply the services needed to prevent and manage Zika and its consequences,” the group told Reuters.
Singapore, a major regional financial center and busy transit hub, which maintains a constant vigil against the mosquito-borne dengue virus, reported its first case of the Zika virus in May, brought in by a middle-aged man who had been to Brazil.
CLEANUP
Singapore deployed about 200 NEA officers to clean drains and spray insecticide in the mainly residential area early on Sunday to counter mosquito breeding grounds, and volunteers and contractors handed out leaflets and insect repellent.
All medical services in Singapore had been alerted “to be extra vigilant” and immediately report any Zika-associated symptoms to the health ministry.
Singapore said there were “ongoing local transmission” cases in Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam. Other countries in the region to have detected the Zika virus since 2013 include Bangladesh, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Maldives and the Philippines, according to the WHO.
Malaysia said on Sunday it stepped up surveillance at main transit points with Singapore – handing out leaflets on Zika prevention and having paramedics ready to handle visitors with potential symptoms of the virus.
In Thailand, where close to 100 cases of Zika have been recorded across 10 provinces this year, the Department of Disease Control was screening athletes returning from the Olympic Games in Brazil, but was not otherwise changing its prevention measures.
“Every country in this region has Zika transmission cases,” said Prasert Thongcharoen, an adviser to the DDC. “Thailand has, however, managed to contain the problem through early detection.”
A Foreign Ministry spokesman said Indonesia was “following developments”. Oskar Pribadi, a Health Ministry official, said there had been no recent Zika cases in the country.
Vietnam has to date reported three cases of locally transmitted Zika infection.
The current strain of Zika sweeping through Latin America and the Caribbean originated in Asia, where people may have built up greater immunity.

Proton OnSite proudly participated in an International Energy Agency (IEA) Hydrogen Implementing Agreement (HIA) task meeting titled, “Task 33: Local Supply of Hydrogen for Energy Applications.” IEA-HIA is a unique leader in the management of coordinated hydrogen research, development and demonstration activities on a global basis. The meeting took place in Paris, France, and was hosted by ENGIE .
Aimed to identify and provide an unbiased evaluation of various pathways for local hydrogen supply for energy applications, Task 33 consisted of an 18 member team of professionals, representing 17 different organizations with vast experience in the field of hydrogen. Featuring a variety of knowledge from across the globe, representatives from government, academia and industry in over 12 countries attended. Some of the countries include; Norway, France, Germany, U.S., Belgium, Sweden, Denmark, The Netherlands, and Japan.
Task 33 is organized in three subtasks. Pleased to hold a leadership role at the meeting, Proton OnSite’s Everett Anderson, Vice President of Business Development, led “Subtask 1.” Anderson was essentially responsible for assessing the levels of technological and economic on-site hydrogen supply availability. Further, this subtask evaluated system design (containerization, modularization, etc.), operation (compressor challenges etc.), costs (CAPEX and OPEX), and proposed cost reduction solutions (standardization, mass manufacturing of systems and units, outsourcing, etc.).
The meeting was not strictly all work and no play- attendees were able to ride to-and-from the meeting each day in a fleet of Hyundai ix35 FCEV’s that operate as a public taxi service in Paris. There are a total of 5 vehicles running under theHYPE program that chauffeured the participants to their destinations.
