Ensuring Air Quality with Expert Industrial Compressor Solutions & Air Treatment Equipment
What is Compressed Air Used For in the Textiles Industry?
From powering looms, weaving fabrics, texturing units and denim spinning all the way to polyester filament yarn (PFY), process house and ginning mills and integrated cotton production and manufacturing, compressed air plays a vital role in the textiles industry. It is primarily used to power the machinery that allows these manufacturing processes to happen, including jet looms, blow guns, sewing machines, pneumatic valves and cylinders and spinning frames. Compressed air is needed for the manufacture of all textiles, including wool, cotton, cloth and yarn, amongst others, whether the raw materials are synthetic, natural or a product of the chemical industry.
Why is High-Quality Compressed Air Important?
At every stage of the textile manufacturing and production process, a continuous flow of high-quality, clean, compressed air is vital to prevent fabric waste and spoilage. Substandard air can have other detrimental effects, too, including loom and other equipment degradation due to the presence and impact of moisture in your compressed air. This moisture causes harmful rusting, which can lead to unexpected downtime due to machinery breakdowns. This means that not only is an efficient air compressor essential, but also a reliable air treatment system to remove any contaminants found in your compressed air.
This is where CompAir comes in!
What Compressed Air Solutions do We Offer for the Textiles Industry?
At CompAir, we offer an extensive range of industrial rotary screw and oil-free compressed air solutions ideal for textile manufacturing and production. To help you achieve high-quality, clean compressed air, we also offer a portfolio of expert air treatment equipment.
Rotary Screw Air Compressors
Introducing our L-Series-a comprehensive range of industrial oil-lubricated rotary screw air compressors1 With specifications ranging from 2 to 250 kW, airflows from 0.24 to 47 m3/in and pressure ranges from S to 13 bar, the L-Series offers a solution for a large variation of textile manufacturing and production processes. With their low noise and low vibration design, reduced maintenance due to no parts that require regular servicing, and the ability to provide a continuous air supply with no ill effect on your compressor installation, they really are the ideal choice for maximising efficiency and performance.Â
Oil-Free Air Compressors
Some processes will require 100% oil-free, Class 0 compressed air and CompAir's portfolio of environmentally-friendly, oil-free air compressors has been designed for applications where air purity is not to be compromised1 They guarantee a continuous supply of clean, Class O ISO 8573-1-certified compressed air for when quality can't be sacrificed and the most stringent standards need to be met. Investing in our industrial oil-free technologies, such as our Ultima, D-Series, or DX-Series models, will mitigate any risks of contamination at every stage of your textile manufacturing process. With their low cost of ownership and maintenance, they are also a cost-saving solution for your textile facility.
Air Treatment Equipment
Vital for achieving high-quality, clean compressed air, particularly when you opt for an oil-lubricated air compressor, is an effective air treatment system. At CompAir, we offer everything from nitrogen generators, filtration and heat recovery systems to condensate treatment, compressed air dryers and compressed air management systems. This way, you have everything you need to maximise the quality of your compressed air to ensure the efficient operation of your textile looms, sewing machines, spinning frames and other textile, clothing and fabric manufacturing equipment and machinery.Â
