* Positive displacement compressors that use a piston to compress air
* Can be single-stage or multi-stage
* Typically used for small to medium-sized applications
2. Rotary Screw Air Compressors
* Positive displacement compressors that use a pair of intermeshing screws to compress air
* Typically used for medium to large-sized applications
3. Centrifugal Air Compressors
* Dynamic compressors that use a rapidly rotating impeller to compress air
* Typically used for large-scale applications
4. Axial Air Compressors
* Dynamic compressors that use a series of rotating blades to compress air
* Typically used for very large-scale applications
5. Scroll Air Compressors
* Positive displacement compressors that use a pair of spiral-shaped scrolls to compress air
* Typically used for small to medium-sized applications
6. Oil-Free Air Compressors
* Compressors that do not use oil to lubricate their internal components
* Typically used in applications where clean, oil-free air is required
7. Oil-Lubricated Air Compressors
* Compressors that use oil to lubricate their internal components
* Typically used in applications where the presence of oil is not a concern
8. Portable Air Compressors
* Compressors that are designed to be easily transported from one location to another
* Typically used for construction, maintenance, and other outdoor applications
9. Stationary Air Compressors
* Compressors that are designed to be permanently installed in a fixed location
* Typically used for industrial and commercial applications
