    Compressed air system

    I prefer to have receiver after dryer, so it smoothens out the peakload from the net, thus providing more stable operation of comressor/dryer. AFAIK if the the dryer is after receiver, and there's a peak load the dryer may be overloaded, and will not remove enough moisture. We're gonna have two...

    Compressed air system

    This is the best part: No actual reason against integrated packages, except, that "they are considered as a technically worse solution". There was also an argument that Atlas compressors use 8% more energy than Kaeser, but when I checked installed power or 24m3/min compressor it was 135kW in...

    Compressed air system

    For some lab application we'd require -40C, but mostly 2C dewpoint. So it'll be refrigerated fro 100%^ flow + desiccant just for lab. I am mostly looking for Kaser/Atlas opinions as well as stand alon/integrated dryer

    Different cam profiles on the same engine?

    It is more common to vary ignition and/or fuelling on different cylinders. Eg cyl. #2-3 have richer mixture than #1-4 due to worse cooling. IMO different cam profiles on differen cyls is not so good idea if you're after max power or efficiency (widely understood), as it will always mean...

    Conveyor belt

    I suppose there's not control of how much soap you get from the feeding conveyor onto the inclined one? Could you make some baffles that would prevent overloading the inclined conveyor? If the soap rolls down due to high inclination I would try a belt with higher borders (both transverse and...

    Compressed air system

    Thanks for reply. Can you explain it further? Especially the later part. I need some arguments for the bosses (they favour Kaeser), while I'd go for Atlas. Best regards, Kris

    Compressed air system

    Hi, My company is building new factory, at the moment we are to decide on equipment supplier (Kaeser or Atlas Copco, which are the biggest in Poland). We are installing either one 24m3/min plus one 14m3/min and another 24m3/min later or two 14m3/min now and one 24m3/min later. My question is...

    Compressed air piping

    Some amount of air is needed for dense phase powder conveying, so it better be good, some amount for product quality testing (same story). The rest is used for pneumatic equipment (cylinders, valves, ejector vacuum pumps) and there would be a lot of it. We will have the dryers, though I'd rather...

    Compressed air piping

    Hi all, I'm designing compressed air piping (in ring form) for my recent plant in Poland. It will be DN100 (4" equiv.) ring, ca 800m circumference, system capacity is 60m3/min max, 36m3/h at the begining, 8bar pressure. I'd like to use ball valves for separating parts of the ring (in case of...
