Screw air compressor and scroll air compressor

Screw air compressor and scroll air compressor are common compression equipment, they have their own characteristics and applicable scenarios. The following is a detailed comparison of these two air compressors:

screw air compressor

working principle:

the screw air compressor is pressurized by the mechanical movement of the master and slave screws. In the suction stage, the air pressure in the screw compression chamber is lower than the atmospheric pressure, and the air is sucked into the compression chamber after passing through the filter device. In the compression stage, the air is confined by the gap between the housing of the compression chamber and the rotating screw. The interaction of the gear and the rack causes the gas to be compressed, and the air pressure and temperature in the chamber gradually increase. When the gas is compressed to the pressure standard, it will be discharged through the outlet valve.

Features:

high efficiency and stability: The screw-type rotating structure has high compression efficiency and can maintain stable output pressure under high load.

Low maintenance cost: simple structure design, less wearing parts, reduce maintenance frequency and cost.

Energy saving and green: adopt advanced control system to automatically adjust the running state and reduce energy consumption.

Customizable: according to the actual needs of enterprises to choose different configurations and models.

A wide range of applications: suitable for heavy industries such as chemical industry, petroleum, electric power, metallurgy, etc., as well as light industries such as food, medicine, and electronics.

Scroll air compressor

working principle:

the scroll air compressor is formed by the intermeshing of two dynamic and static scroll discs of the double function equation type line. The gas is sucked into the periphery of the static disc through the air filter element. As the eccentric shaft rotates, the gas is gradually compressed in several crescent-shaped compression chambers combined by the static and dynamic disc, and then continuously discharged from the axial hole of the central part of the static disc.

Features:

high reliability: Due to simple structure and few moving parts, it is reliable and durable.

Low noise and low energy consumption: smooth operation, low vibration, and almost zero resistance loss of intake and exhaust, so noise and energy consumption are very low.

Low maintenance cost: fewer host parts, fewer wearing parts, small maintenance workload and low maintenance cost.

A wide range of applications: suitable for manufacturing, chemical industry, food and beverage industry, medical industry, textile industry, electronics industry and other fields.

Summary

screw air compressor and scroll air compressor have their own unique advantages and application scenarios. Screw air compressor is famous for its high efficiency, stability and wide range of applications, while scroll air compressor is favored for its high reliability, low noise and low maintenance cost. When choosing, the decision should be made according to the specific application requirements and scenarios.
