Atlas Copco’s portable air compressors: designed for toughness
Know how Atlas Copco’s portable air compressors get to be so tough? They undergo a gruelling regime of extreme tests and challenges, says Gill Dhooghe, VP of R&D at Atlas Copco’s Portable Air division.
There are ordinary portable air compressors, and then there are really tough ones. The unsung heroes of many construction sites, these units quietly get on with their jobs despite some serious trials and tribulations while out on the field. Used on everything from water well drilling to explorational mining, tough compressors are required to endure extreme climates, altitudes and air conditions while maintaining optimal performance, no matter how demanding the conditions.
To ensure the compressed air units are fit to weather any storm or terrain, their endurance must be put to the test. Atlas Copco’s market-leading Portable Air division has created a range of rigorous testing processes for each of its portable compressors to undergo to guarantee the units worthy of their status as the toughest on the market. Their high quality, ultra-robust and durable design is pushed to their very limits to prove they are built to last, and can maintain reliable performance in any application, under any circumstances.
