Compressed air systems are becoming smarter and more connected, leading to improved efficiency and reduced costs. Read on to find out how you can benefit from this technology, what’s shaping the future and what’s coming next. Automation and advanced controls are transforming compressed air. It used to be seen as a fixed utility cost, which…
A high-performing piping network must deliver stable pressure, excellent air quality and energy efficiency. Whether designing a system for a new facility or upgrading an aging plant, most engineers look first at the air compressor itself. They want to upgrade capacity, controls or technology. But there is a different component that could quietly bottleneck the…
A compressed air system demands a dedicated, full-lifecycle expert partner to manage everything from initial design and installation to long-term proactive support. It’s tempting to think of the compressed air system like an electrical outlet on the wall, a plug-and-play utility you can just set and forget. But in reality, it is a dynamic and…
Rental air compressors give manufacturers a hidden advantage. They enable facilities to gain maximum control over operations that need to stop during planned downtime. For manufacturers, continuity is everything. It only takes one down air compressor to stall production. The impact is often measured in both revenue and reputation — which makes it an unacceptable…
Minutes = money when compressed air is among a plant’s main utilities. When trouble arises, rapid responses from certified air compression experts restore production and get companies back to work quickly. Michigan Air Solutions provides 24/7 support with technicians on call and a dedicated hotline. The stakes are high for facilities that rely on compressed…
A red light on your air compressor doesn’t always mean disaster — but it’s time to call in the experts. When an air compressor breaks down, operations might too. For companies working in manufacturing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, industrials and many other sectors, compressed air is a critical utility. Production halts, pneumatic tools cease to…
Compressed air is often called “the fourth utility” in industrial operations, and like the other three utilities — water, electricity and gas — wasting air can have expensive consequences. The damage done by compressed air leaks is often misunderstood and underestimated. What may seem like a simple bit of air escaping can lead to thousands…
Legacy Industries, a Michigan-based aerospace manufacturer, switched to an ELGi air compressor to ensure clean, high-quality compressed air. Legacy Industries is a Michigan-based manufacturer that produces mechanical parts, robots, and tools for “the big three” aircraft manufacturers. The company must use the cleanest air compression technology available to meet its quality production standards. “Compressed air…
