About Industrial Air Compressor Equipment | Screw & Piston Compressors for Factories

Industrial air compressor equipment powers pneumatic tools, spray finishing, packaging lines and automation systems across factories and workshops. Screw compressors suit continuous, multi-shift production with stable airflow, while piston compressors fit intermittent or low-volume applications. CECLE supplies compressors for manufacturing plants, metal fabrication, food processing and general industry.

How to Choose

  • Working pressure and free air delivery (CFM or m³/min) matched to your real air demand
  • Duty cycle: screw compressors for continuous runs, piston compressors for intermittent use
  • Oil-lubricated vs oil-free design based on air purity needs
  • Energy efficiency and operating cost over the machine lifetime
  • After-sales support and spare parts availability in your region

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between a screw and a piston air compressor?
A: A screw compressor uses two rotating rotors to deliver continuous, stable airflow and suits long operating hours. A piston compressor compresses air in cylinders and is a better fit for intermittent or smaller air demands.

Q: How do I size an industrial air compressor?
A: Calculate your total air consumption from all connected pneumatic equipment, consider peak demand, required working pressure, daily operating hours and future expansion, then choose a unit with appropriate free air delivery.

Q: Do I need an oil-free compressor?
A: Oil-free designs are recommended when compressed air contacts the product, such as in food, pharmaceutical or electronics applications. For general plant air, oil-lubricated units are usually more economical.

Q: What accessories are needed with a compressor?
A: An air receiver tank, filters and a refrigerated air dryer are commonly added to stabilize pressure, remove particles and reduce moisture so downstream equipment runs reliably.
