- Process air for drying, cooling, ventilation, and testing applications
- Cleaning components and equipment
- Mixing and homogenizing
Which compressed air solution is right for which application?
The appropriate compressed air solution depends on the specific application. Continuous processes with consistent load profiles place different demands on system design than fluctuating or complex operating conditions, which require higher standards of purity, efficiency, and operational reliability. We develop compressed air systems tailored to each specific industrial application.
Key selection criteria for industrial compressed air:
- Pressure range
- Air flow rate
- Load profile
- Compressed air quality
- Operating conditions
- Energy efficiency
- Life-cycle costs
- Maintenance requirements
When is oil-free compressed air required?
Oil-free compressed air is required when even trace amounts of oil can compromise the quality of processes, products or downstream systems. This applies in particular where there is direct contact with the product, in sensitive manufacturing processes or where strict regulatory requirements apply. Key areas of application include the food and drink industry, the pharmaceutical and medical technology sectors, and electronics and semiconductor manufacturing.
When are oil-injected solutions appropriate?
Oil-injected compressed air solutions are appropriate where there are no stringent requirements regarding compressed air purity and cost-effectiveness is the primary consideration. Typical applications include pneumatic tools and drives, the control and regulation of machinery, and the conveyance and transport of bulk materials and liquids. Depending on the process, the oil content can also be utilised for functional purposes, such as lubrication or sealing in certain industrial applications.
Compressed Air Treatment: Air Conditioning Is Key
Optimal Compressed Air Quality in Every Process
Compressed air treatment is a central component of every industrial compressed air system. It comprises technical components that remove moisture, oil, aerosols, dust, and particles from the generated compressed air and bring it up to the required quality. The goal is to condition the air so that it meets the requirements of the specific application and reliably protects equipment and processes.

Compressed air is ambient air that has been compressed to a higher pressure using a compressor. Compressed air plays an important role as a versatile working medium—for example, as an energy source, a control medium, process air, a conveyor medium, or for cleaning, cooling, and drying. The compressed air areas differ depending on the application and application requirements.
Compressed air technology is used in almost all branches of industry, including industrial manufacturing, the automotive industry, construction, the food and beverage industry, medical technology, the chemical industry, textile production, mechanical engineering, the electronics and semiconductor industry, and energy and environmental technology.
Industrial compressed air is a sub-area of compressed air technology and encompasses the targeted use of compressed air in production and manufacturing processes. It is an essential component of automated processes and is provided by special compressed air systems and controlled according to demand.
Compressed air is a generic term for compressed air of any quality for a wide range of applications. Process air refers to compressed air that is directly integrated into technical processes. Typical applications include the aeration of sewage treatment tanks, the pneumatic conveying of materials, and drying and cooling processes. Since process air comes into direct contact with the product or process, the purity and quality requirements are very high. Professional compressed air treatment ensures perfect compressed air quality.
A compressed air supply system refers to the generation, storage, and delivery of compressed air for industrial applications. It includes compressors, control and regulation technology, compressed air storage tanks, and the distribution system to the point of use. The goal is to provide the required amount of compressed air at a stable pressure with high availability.
Compressors work with ambient air. This contains various types of contaminants that can have a negative impact on processes. A correctly dimensioned compressed air treatment system ensures optimum compressed air quality and thus forms the basis for high process reliability, productivity and cost-effectiveness.
