Screw air compressor is a kind of mechanical equipment, not belong to food machinery. The following is a detailed distinction between the two:
screw air compressor
- definition and application: Screw air compressor is a commonly used pneumatic equipment, which compresses air to the required pressure through two intermeshing screws. It is widely used in various factories and mines, construction sites, medicine, food, textile, printing, pharmaceutical, automobile maintenance and other fields. It can store and transmit air after compression, and is widely used in power and control systems in production and processing.
- Features: Screw air compressor has the advantages of compact structure, low noise, low vibration, simple maintenance and high efficiency. Compared to the piston air compressor, it is superior in performance.
- Classification screw air compressor can be divided into single screw and twin screw according to the number of screws. According to whether lubricating oil is involved in the compression process, it is divided into oil-injected and oil-free screw air compressors. Oil-free compressors are divided into dry and water lubrication. Screw air compressor in the usual sense mainly refers to the twin screw air compressor.
Food Machinery
- definition and application food machinery refers to the mechanical equipment and devices used in the process of processing food raw materials into food (or semi-finished products). It can be divided into two categories: food processing machinery and packaging equipment, which are widely used in the production, processing, packaging, storage, transportation and other links of the food industry.
- Features: The design, manufacture and application of food machinery need to meet strict safety and hygiene requirements to ensure the quality and safety of food.
- Classification food machinery includes screening and cleaning machinery, crushing and cutting machinery, mixing and homogenization machinery, forming machinery, separation machinery, evaporation and concentration machinery, drying machinery, baking machinery, freezing machinery, extrusion machinery, conveying machinery, pumps, heat exchange equipment, containers, packaging machinery and other types.
In summary, although both screw air compressors and food machinery belong to the category of mechanical equipment, they have obvious differences in definition, application, characteristics and classification. Therefore, the screw air compressor does not belong to food machinery.
