Thorite secures substantial savings for Service Timber
For many companies who need a reliable source of compressed air, the age of their compressor isn't much of a concern. It's almost a case of “Well it's running just fine, we have it serviced regularly, so what's the problem?”
Pushing the boundaries of compressor efficiency
Intercooling is a common practice in compressor technology for reducing the power required for operation. However, the latest research by Mattei, in conjunction with the Polytechnic University of Milan, shows that the similar concept of ‘intracooling’ achieves even better results in two-stage compressors. Andy Jones, managing director at Mattei, explains how it works, improves energy efficiency, and what’s in store for further development.
