Gas compressors are mechanical devices that increase the pressure of gas by reducing its volume. They are commonly used in various industries, including natural gas, petroleum, and manufacturing, to transport and store gases efficiently. By compressing gas, these machines help in moving it through pipelines and ensuring it is available for various applications. There are different types of gas compressors, such as reciprocating compressors and rotary screw compressors. Each type operates on distinct principles but serves the same fundamental purpose of enhancing gas pressure. These compressors play a crucial role in maintaining the flow and availability of gases in numerous industrial processes.
