A compressor delivering 4-5 CFM at 90 PSI is typically sufficient for common air tools. However, specific tools like sanders and paint sprayers may require higher CFM.
Compressed air workshop tools, also known as pneumatic tools, have revolutionised the way professionals and hobbyists approach their tasks. These tools are powered by compressed air, offering unmatched power, reliability, and precision. Whether you're involved in construction, auto maintenance, furniture assembly, or woodwork, pneumatic tools can significantly improve your operations with workshop air tools.
How Compressed Air Tools Work
At the heart of pneumatic tools is the air compressor. An air compressor is a device that compresses air through a piston and cylinder, then stores it in a tank for pressurisation. This pressurised air serves as an energy source for connected tools. When you activate a pneumatic tool, the compressed air is released, converting potential energy into mechanical energy to drive the tool's specific action.
Key Components:
- Air Compressor: Compresses and stores air.
- Air Hose: Transports compressed air from the compressor to the tool.
- Pressure Regulator: Controls the air pressure to match the tool's requirements.
- Moisture Separator: Removes moisture from the compressed air to prevent tool damage.
