USING AIR COMPRESSORS IN AGRICULTURE AND FARMING
Demand for food and other agricultural products is increasing with rapid population growth, urbanization, and per capita increase in income. The substantial increase in total agricultural production can be attributed to new technologies, innovations, and process improvements in the farm sector. For example, today, A farm needs air compressors for various requirements, including digging borewells, powering pneumatic tools, irrigating fields, cleaning or sorting to produce. Now, with technological advancements, air compressors have become more efficient and easier to use.
In the agricultural industry, many machines and day-to-day operations utilize air compressors for a continuous or intermittent supply of clean, pressurized air. This industry strongly needs on-demand compressed air and compressors that have high longevity where ELGi's rotary screw compressors can help. Water pumps, crop sprayers, tractors, conveyors, pneumatic handling material machines, and even dairy machines require compressed air. These factors make a reliable air compressor a vital component to a successful farm.
Varied applications of compressed air technology in agricultural industry includes:
- Water Pumps – Water is essential for crops, livestock, and sustainable pastures. Sometimes compressed air is needed to bring this vital resource to specific areas to optimize growth. By ensuring less downtime and longevity with your compressor, you provide your livestock and crops have this essential ingredient for life.
- Crop Sprayers – Many crop sprayers utilize compressed air, and a reliable compressor is essential in the daily operations of your farm. These types of automated crop sprayers require a large amount of air.
- Product Conveyors/Pneumatic Material Handling Machines – Many product conveyors utilize compressed air. ELGi air compressors are designed for both irregular and continuous use. Pneumatic material handling machines are common in the food industry and require a steady supply of compressed air to function correctly.
- Dairy Machines – Dairy machines are essential, like many automated agricultural machines that utilize a large amount of compressed air. ELGi compressors are designed to handle the continuous and demanding requirements for farms of all sizes. Energy efficiency and reliability are essential when selecting a compressor utilized in the dairy industry.
- Tractors and Vehicle Tires- One of the most common uses of an air compressor on a farm is to inflate tractor and other vehicle tires on your farm. Whether you need to inflate your tires quickly to transport hay or livestock over a large piece of land or have a large tractor tire that needs to be inflated, a portable air compressor can be a vital component to your farm. Compressors make this task easy and will help maintain safety and reliability on your farm equipment.
- Greenhouse Ventilation – For some growers, getting clean air and proper ventilation to industrial greenhouses can be a challenge that can be solved with compressed air. In the long run, energy efficiency maximizes the economic benefits of utilizing compressed air for ventilation.
- Silos – Compressors can be used to power systems that transport excess grain and food into silos for storage.
- Winterization of Irrigation Lines – During winters, weather can impede irrigation lines. Farmers can utilize compressed air for clearing irrigation lines of excess water to prepare for winter. Not only does it save on costly repairs, but it can also be used to protect and add longevity to vital infrastructure that will last for years to come.
