What is a screw compressor?

A screw compressor is an air compressor that compresses air through the interaction of rotating screws. This mechanism enables the efficient generation of compressed air for a wide range of industrial applications. How do screw compressors work? A screw compressor consists of two parallel, intermeshing screws, one stationary and one rotating.

Why should you choose almig screw compressors?

Benefit from high energy efficiency, durability and reliability of ALMiG screw compressors. Choose ALMiG to meet your compressed air needs and move your business forward. In the field of screw compressors, ALMiG is considered the manufacturer with probably the most extensive product range. We offer screw compressors from 4 kW - 315 kW.

What are the different types of screw compressors?

There are oil-lubricated and oil-free screw compressors. Oil-lubricated compressors provide efficient lubrication and cooling, while oil-free compressors are used for applications that require absolutely oil-free compressed air, such as in the food and medical industries. How do you choose the right screw compressor for a specific application?

Why do you need oil-free screw compressors?

Oil-free screw compressors are needed in applications where absolutely oil-free compressed air is required, for example in the food and medical industries. The absence of oil eliminates the risk of contamination and makes them particularly suitable for sensitive production environments.

Which air compressor should I Choose?

Explore our fixed or variable speed drive options. If your application requires constant compressed air supply, you should consider a rotary screw air compressor. They can be used for any operations that require up to a 100% continuous duty cycle and are built for long lifetime of reliable operation.

Are screw compressors better than piston compressors?

Screw compressors are characterized by high efficiency, low vibrations and a continuous air flow. Compared to piston compressors, they are more energy-efficient and have a higher power density. For which applications are screw compressors particularly suitable?
