Is the air compressor repaired or replaced with a new one?

Apr 08, 2022

The full name of an air compressor is an air compressor, which uses electrical energy or mechanical energy to compress air to obtain air with a certain pressure and output it to customers.

 

The newly purchased air compressor will be affected by the air environment and temperature during use. After a period of use, effective maintenance is required to ensure the normal operation of the air compressor. For the daily maintenance of the air compressor, the air compressor after-sales service department can usually solve it quickly. However, when the air compressor is used for a long time or the environment is harsh, its main core components have been seriously worn, and the maintenance cost accounts for 50-60% of the purchase cost of new equipment. You may wish to consider purchasing a new machine.

 

For example, if the screw air compressor is used for too long, the screw rotor may have the following problems: bearing wear; excessive meshing clearance; poor oil circuit, vibration; excessive operating noise. If the maintenance is not checked and maintained in time, it is likely to face a lot of losses: abnormal friction and play of the rotor; reduced operational reliability; reduced efficiency and increased energy consumption; sudden damage, which completely affects production. For enterprises, the result of affecting production is equal to the increase of intangible cost of enterprise cost. Also, when the long-life air compressor main unit is locked, the maintenance cost is higher. In contrast, it is more cost-effective to buy a new machine.

 

You might say that new machines are also expensive. Yes, brand new air compressors are really expensive. However, compared to older machines, new air compressors offer energy savings, higher reliability, and lower repair and maintenance costs. Paying back your investment in new machinery is usually quicker than you expect. Needless to say, using older machines is more prone to the risk of downtime or even affecting production. Therefore, the air compressor will incur certain maintenance costs. For enterprises, reducing maintenance costs is also a cost saving for enterprises.
