Development history of piston air compressor, single screw air compressor and twin screw air compressor

2026-04-10Views:

Air compressor is the abbreviation of "air compressor. As early as 1640 AD, the first (mechanical) vacuum pump made in Germany, now, with the improvement of technology, air compressors have been busy in all walks of life, such as food, tobacco and other metallurgy, petrochemical, chemical fiber, pharmaceutical and so on.

Development History of 1. Twin Screw Compressor

around 1878, the first prototype was born. Then it should be in 1934, with the emergence of the first patent of SRM factory chief engineer A.Lysholm, and the principle of asymmetric tooth profile twin screw compressor, the screw compressor and its rotor tooth profile were designed. The first screw machine developed in history was an oil-free screw compressor. The bearings, gears and other parts in the compressor are lubricated by ordinary lubrication methods, but the oil is isolated by effective isolation shaft seals. There is oil-injected screw compressor, when a large amount of lubricating oil is injected into the compressed gas medium, it plays the role of lubrication, sealing, cooling and noise reduction. In an oil-injected screw air compressor, the output compressed air contains oil. In some applications, with the development of oil and gas separation and gas purification technology, filtration treatment can fully meet the requirements of oil-free or micro-oil.

Development history of 2. single screw compressor

in 1960, the French Siemens company put forward the idea of single screw compressor and patent.

In 1963, the first prototype car was manufactured and officially produced and put on the market by Peugeot in France in the early 1970 s.

In the late 1980 s, with the advancement of technology, compressed air was produced that can be used in petroleum, chemical, mining and other industries.

Nowadays, single screw air compressors are mainly used in petroleum, chemical, energy, transportation, machinery, metallurgy, mining, construction, medicine, food and other fields, and the market demand is also increasing.

Development history of 3. piston machine

reciprocating piston machines are arguably one of the earliest developed types of compressors. During operation, the gas is compressed and transported by the reciprocating movement of the piston in the cylinder.

Timeline:

the wooden bellows invented in China in 1500 BC, by the end of the 18th century, Britain had made the first reciprocating air compressor for industry. And oil-free lubrication and diaphragm compressors began to appear in the 1930 s.

Development history of 4. centrifuge

(Little knowledge: the earliest application of centrifugal force was in ancient China. At that time, people often tied ropes to clay pots and shook them vigorously to separate honey from honey by centrifugal force.)

the first centrifuge was born in Germany in 1836. After that, several decades later, Sweden applied centrifuge equipment to the food industry for the first time. A milk fat centrifuge used to separate cows and milk fat from milk;

by 1950, in Switzerland, centrifuge technology was improved again and can now be driven directly by variable frequency motors. This development has laid the foundation for centrifuges in scientific research, hospitals, industrial production and other fields.

At present, with the rapid development of time, the rapid development of centrifuges, countless types. The application industry is also exploring new areas.

    Is it better to have oil or no oil in the air compressor

    Of course, it is good to be oil-free. It is clearly arranged for you from the price. Oil-free is several times the price of oil (not the kind of small piston air compressor). The compressed air produced by the oil air compressor is with a small amount of oil, and it must be filtered, and it is still endless.
