towed rotary screw air compressor for highway construction

towed rotary screw air compressor is a kind of mobile compressed air equipment designed for harsh environments and high-intensity operations, which is widely used in many industries such as mining, construction and infrastructure.

Description

The towed rotary screw air compressor features a traction design for excellent maneuverability, enabling rapid transfers between construction sites and delivering efficient, continuous air supply. Advanced screw compression technology ensures high stability and low energy consumption, with reliable performance even in high temperature, low temperature, heavy dust, and high-altitude environments.

Working Principle of Towed Rotary Screw Air Compressor

  • Two-stage screw compression: Utilizes a two-stage compression design to significantly improve efficiency and reduce energy consumption.
  • Intelligent adjustment system: Equipped with a full-range stepless speed control system, it automatically adjusts engine speed based on real-time air usage to ensure optimal performance and minimal fuel consumption.
  • Air is drawn through the inlet, compressed between the screw rotors (large rotor, low speed for stability), and discharged via the exhaust pipe to power tools and equipment.

Main Features

  1. High efficiency and energy saving: Two-stage compression and stepless speed regulation auto-adjust to load changes, reducing energy waste and fuel consumption while maximizing efficiency.
  2. Harsh environment adaptability: Operates stably in challenging conditions, including extreme temperatures, dust, and high altitude.
  3. Low noise operation: Silicon oil frequency conversion fan adjusts speed with temperature, reducing noise and improving operational comfort.
  4. Long-term reliability: Large rotor, low-speed screw design ensures durable, stable operation. Backed by a 5-year or 10,000-hour warranty, minimizing downtime and maintenance.
  5. Enhanced air filtration: U.S. Frigidaire three-stage air filtration system offers large dust capacity and long-life filtration, protecting engine and screw host.
  6. Optimized fuel system: Large-capacity fuel tank reduces refueling frequency; three-stage fuel filter protects the nozzle and pump, simplifying maintenance.

Application Areas

  • Mine blasting: Provides efficient, continuous compressed air for drilling and blasting operations.
  • Hydroelectric power plant construction: Stable air source for pneumatic tools, equipment startup, and pressure testing.
  • Infrastructure construction: Supports highways, railroads, and other large projects, reliably powering construction machinery.
  • Non-excavation down-hole drilling: Delivers high-pressure airflow for efficient, accurate drilling in trenchless construction.
  • Industrial pneumatic applications: Powers pneumatic tools, cleaning, and sandblasting operations for various industrial settings.

Key Technical Configuration

  • Engine:
    • Dongfeng Cummins: High strength and durability for tough environments, low maintenance cost.
    • Original Volvo: Low fuel consumption, excellent low-temperature and high-altitude performance, global joint warranty.
  • Intelligent control system: Integrates startup, shutdown, protection, load adjustment, and global GPS/GPRS remote monitoring for real-time management and operation status.
  • Air Filtration System: High-performance Frigidaire system with three-stage filtration for effective impurity removal and protection of engine and screw host.
  • Fuel system: Large-capacity tank for fewer refuels, three-stage fuel filter for optimal oil system protection and efficient operation.
