If properly maintained and used, industrial air compressors can outlast many of the operators using or taking care of it. They can work effectively for over 15 years. Air compressors have been demanded both for work purposes and fun activities they can be utilized for. Don’t think of them as a rugged machine sitting in a factory corner to provide alternative power for the facility. Rather, most pneumatic tools can function better employing air compression than other sources of energy. To give you a better idea about how amazing and useful air compressors can be, here are their top four surprising and fun applications.
Creative Painting with Airbrush
One of the most artistic applications of industrial air compressors is airbrush painting. Artists that customize vehicles and other automotive through an airbrush usually use a smaller sized air compressor in doing their job.
Safe Diving
Perhaps you are aware that divers need some amount of gas stored in their diving cylinders in order for them to breathe under the ocean. The compressed air they utilized for breathing is being filtered and set for two different uses. The first one is for their surface supplied diving while the other one is for scuba divers. Special industrial air compressors are very critical in this kind of situation because they ensure the safety of divers. Their key components such as gas blending, pressure, and heat have to be taken into account carefully.
Sandblasting
This application works quite similar to pressure washing wherein compressed air is utilized to clean various surfaces. However, sandblasters are used to prepare different types of surfaces to make them ready for finishing such as removing stains, dirt, and old paints from the surface. In addition to water as the media, sandblasters are also using silica to remove impurities from a surface.
