Compressed Air Applications by Industry

Our products are used to manufacture any and everything around you. Automotive shops rely on our AIRCENTER screw compressor packages to supply the air they need to for impact wrenches, paint booths, and more. Wastewater treatment plants across the country use our blower packages for aeration processes. Take a drive down almost any highway and you can find our MOBILAIR™ portable compressors providing air for construction sites.

Industries from pharmaceutical, woodworking, plastics, packaging, dry-cleaning, and more have our industrial rotary screw compressors in their plants. Your daily life is filled with products that are manufactured using compressed air. Non-industrial facilities such as hospitals, laboratories, and automotive service shops also frequently rely on KAESER to supply their compressed air needs. Kaeser installations throughout the United States provide customers with reliable, durable, and energy-efficient compressed air systems.

Mining


copper mine

Kaeser compressed air and blower solutions are installed around the world, reliably supporting mining operations large and small in a wide variety of critical applications.

Nitrogen Generation


Nitrogen gas is a critical resource in countless industrial applications, from food packaging to fire protection to laser cutting. Traditionally supplied in high-pressure cylinders or bulk liquid form, nitrogen is increasingly being produced on-site through nitrogen generators. This shift is driven by the need for improved efficiency, cost savings, and environmental sustainability.

Plastic products manufacturing


plastic bottle production line - air compressors for plastic manufacturing

Compressed air and vacuum are critical to the plastics production and manufacturing sectors for a variety of critical applications, including...

Pneumatic conveying


Low pressure air and vacuum are critical elements of most pneumatic conveying systems. A conveyor system will use either negative or positive conveying to pull (negative conveying with vacuum) or push (positive conveying with blowers) bulk materials from one place to another.
