AirHorse 22kW 4-in-1 Integrated Unit Provides Stable, Clean Compressed Air for a CNC Technology Group in Guangdong
In the laser cutting and processing industry,the quality of compressed air directly affects equipment stability and cutting quality. During the laser cutting process, compressed air is not only used to assist cutting but also to blow away molten slag, protect the cutting head, and cool the cutting area.
If the air containsmoisture, oil mist, or dust particles, it can adversely affect the laser equipment.
Especially in continuous production environments, water mist entering the laser optical path can easily contaminate or even damage the laser lenses. This not only impacts cutting quality but may also lead to equipment downtime, incurring additional maintenance costs for the enterprise.
Therefore, more and more laser processing companies are beginning to emphasize the importance of configuring high-quality compressed air systems.
Laser cutting equipment demands extremely high-quality compressed air. In the laser processing industry, compressed air typically needs to meet strict cleanliness standards.
Ideal compressed air should feature:low moisture content, no oil mist contamination, low particulate content, and stable pressure output.
If the air treatment is inadequate, it can lead to lens contamination, optical path damage, rough cut edges, and increased equipment maintenance costs. Therefore, a reliable and stable air treatment system is critical for laser processing enterprises.
Customer Needs
A CNC Technology Group Co., Ltd. in Guangdong Province is an enterprise engaged in precision manufacturing and laser processing equipment production. As production scales expanded, the company raised new requirements during its workshop equipment upgrade:
✔ Compressed air must be dry and clean
✔ Equipment operation must be stable and reliable
✔ The system must be energy-efficient
✔ Installation space must becompact and reasonable
After comprehensive evaluation, the company ultimately chose to introduce theAirHorse 22kW 4-in-1 Laser-Dedicated Permanent Magnet Variable Frequency Screw Air Compressor to provide a stable and reliable power source for its production lines.
High-Standard Water, Oil Removal
To meet the air quality requirements of the laser cutting industry, the AirHorse 4-in-1 integrated unit is equipped with a multi-stage air treatment system: a refrigerated air dryer, high-efficiency oil-gas separation device, and a four-stage precision filtration system.
These effectively removemoisture, oil mist, and particulate impurities from the compressed air, ensuring that the output air remains dry, clean, and stable, providing a reliable air source environment for laser equipment.
A single high-quality laser lens often has a high replacement cost, sometimes reaching hundreds of thousands, and also results in equipment downtime. Therefore, using adry, clean, and stable compressed air system is not only necessary for improving cutting quality but also crucial for reducing equipment maintenance costs.
Energy-Efficient Air Supply
In the energy consumption structure of manufacturing enterprises,compressed air systems typically account for a significant portion. Traditional fixed-speed air compressors often idle when air demand fluctuates, leading to energy waste.
The AirHorse 22kW 4-in-1 integrated unit utilizeshigh-efficiency permanent magnet variable frequency drive technology, allowing the equipment to automatically adjust its operating speed based on actual air demand. This achieves: on-demand air supply, reduced idle energy consumption, and more stable output pressure. Compared to traditional compressed air systems, overall energy consumption can be reduced by approximately 30%, helping enterprises effectively lower production energy costs.
Simplifies Installation
Traditional compressed air systems typically consist of separate components: an air compressor, air receiver, refrigerated air dryer, and filtration system. This results in numerous devices, complex piping, and long installation times.
The AirHorse 4-in-1 integrated unit combines the compression system, drying system, filtration system, and air storage system into a single, highly integrated unit. This design reduces equipment footprint, simplifies on-site installation, minimizes external piping, and lowers pressure losses in the air circuit, making it especially suitable forlaser processing workshops with limited installation space.
Real-Time Monitoring of Status
The unit is equipped with an intelligent control system featuring automatic protection functions, fault alerts, and operational data logging. It can monitor equipment operating parameters in real time — pressure, temperature, current, and operating status.
If an equipment anomaly occurs, maintenance personnel can be promptly notified. This effectively reduces the risk of equipment downtime, ensuring continuous and stable production.
