Shanghai air compressor tells you: air compressor chronicle

Rotary type: In this design, the piston moves in a rotational motion. It is also known as a dry-drying piston. The number of rotors can vary, and the cylinder shapes are different. This type includes rotor, screw, slide, and other variations.
Shanghai Air Compressor shares with you the fascinating history of air compressors.
Many people believe that Atlas Air Compressor Company built the world's first air compressor. However, this is a common misconception. In fact, it can be said that our country was the first to use air compressors. To understand why, read through the following chronicle:


Before 1500 AD, the wooden bellows used by the Shang Dynasty in China already contained key components of modern air compressors—cylinder, piston, piston ring, and air valve.

The mechanical vacuum pump developed in Germany in 1640 is considered the origin of modern air compression technology.

Around 1800, the UK produced the first single-stage (reciprocating piston) air compressor with an exhaust pressure of 1.38 MPa.

In 1829, the UK introduced the first two-stage reciprocating air compressor with intercooling.

In 1878, Swiss company Buckhardt Maschinenfabrik AG launched its first air compressor with a gas distribution control valve.

By 1888, the pneumatic system in a French city had already installed 14 reciprocating air compressors with a total power of 1500 kW.

In 1902, Ingersoll-Rand Co. created the first mobile reciprocating air compressor.

In 1907, Sweden’s Atlas Company produced its first mobile reciprocating air compressor, combining an internal combustion engine and a single-stage compressor on a shared crankshaft—this was the world’s first integrated motorcycle-type compressor.

In 1930, the "Monodloc" mobile air compressor was introduced. It was essentially a diesel-powered unit: vertical, four-cylinder, two-stroke, and directly driving a two-stage, single-acting, vertical cylinder on the same crankshaft.

In 1931, the U.S. company Morthington Corp. developed the first opposed air compressor, which later evolved into today’s BDC symmetric balanced series.

In 1934, German company KSB produced the first oil-free lubricated reciprocating air compressor. At the same time, Wurzen Machinery Manufacturing and Foundry in Germany introduced the first oil-free reciprocating compressor using graphite rings for sealing.

In late 1935, Sulzer Brothers Ltd. manufactured the first labyrinth cylinder oil-free compressor for a Zurich brewery.

In 1952, the Shenyang Air Compressor Factory successfully produced the first compressor with a volumetric flow rate of 6 m³/min and an exhaust pressure of 0.6865 MPa. In 1957, they developed the L-100/8 large-scale air compressor.

Between 1959 and 1960, the First Ministry of Machinery Industry, Hefei General Machinery Research Institute, Xi’an Jiaotong University, and Shenyang Gas Compressor Factory collaborated on the design and development of China’s first L-type air compressor series.

In 1960, Sweden’s Atlas Company released the famous DT4 short-stroke air compressor and the ER8 low-power model.
