Compressed air

Compressed air plays an important role in surface technology in various industrial surface treatment applications. It is used in conjunction with various tools and equipment to perform a variety of tasks, including cleaning, drying, coating, blasting and much more.

In surface technology, compressed air is often used to shoot abrasives, such as sand or glass beads, at high pressure onto a surface to remove contaminants or finish the surface. This process, known as compressed air blasting or sandblasting, enables efficient cleaning and preparation of surfaces for subsequent treatments or coatings. Compressed air is also used in other areas of surface technology. For example, it is used to spray paint or coatings onto surfaces to achieve even and precise coverage. Compressed air can also be used in pneumatic tools such as grinders, sanders, drills and other tools to perform various machining and shaping tasks.

Another important aspect of compressed air in surface technology is its role in drying surfaces after cleaning or coating. Compressed air is used to remove water or other liquids from surfaces, reducing drying time and increasing productivity. Overall, compressed air is an indispensable element in surface technology, enabling a wide range of applications and helping to treat, process and protect surfaces efficiently.
