Compressor Pistons Manufacturers

Compressor piston consists of a piston reciprocating inside a cylinder to compress air. The piston is connected to a connecting rod and a crankshaft while it travels up and down within a cylinder. Valves control the air entering and discharging from the cylinder. As the piston travels down, the inlet valve opens and air is draw into the cylinder. At the bottom of the pistons travel the inlet valve closes trapping the air within the cylinder. As the piston changes its direction and returns to the top of the cylinder it starts to compress the air. At the top of its stroke, the exhaust valve opens and allows the compressed air to exit the cylinder.
