Since compressed air is used from production to wood finishing, this sector needs to equip its production lines with several machines with different characteristics: from small compressors that can be easily handled to high power stationary compressors.
In order to correctly configure the compressor to be destined to the different applications, it is very important to precisely know the compressed air demand for each of them and to look for, among the various alternatives, the one which, in the established amortisation time and on the basis of other functional specifications, ensures the lowest energy consumption.
It is also necessary to evaluate the need for a supervision and management system that, according to functional and optimisation criteria, is able to modulate air production according to the load profile and monitor the correct operation of the single compressor or compressor room.
