Automotive
With the automotive industry needing skilled technicians to assemble and produce all the necessary components to make automobiles run, factories and shops need to optimize their compressed air system to maximize the bottom line.
Did you know that the car you drive was constructed with the help of compressed air? Practically every process of the auto industry, from engine construction to vehicle assembly, painting, and tool cleaning comes from the usage of compressed air. Producing and servicing these vehicles would lack efficiency and speed without these systems.
The processes of vehicle construction would be impossible to complete without air compressors:
- Tool powering: Compressed air powers the pneumatic tools used in the assembly lines. With the assistance of robots, compressed air aids workers in building the body of the car.
- Controls and actuators: Pneumatic tools lift and transport the various components from the assembly lines and move them throughout the factory.
- Stamping: A process of molding materials to fit the requirements of the product. Air compressors are used to stamp and cut the rough outline or shape of the product.
- Forming: Another method of molding material to create critical vehicle components. Pneumatic systems press outlines into the sheet metal to form shapes and features such as door panels or trunks.
