The system
The piston compressor is the core component of a compressor system, responsible for pressurising air or gas using reciprocating motion. It compresses air or gas in a cylinder and delivers it to various applications. It can be found in standalone units or integrated into larger systems, serving a wide range of industrial and commercial purposes.
