Rotary screw air compressors, also known as screw compressors, utilize a rotary screw as a positive displacement mechanism. A rotary compressor is commonly used for tight installations and replacing a failed screw compressor or piston compressor in industrial applications. Larger rotary screw compressors (typically 25 horsepower or more) are generally all base mounted due to the weight and size of the compressor. Compressor World carries a complete line of industrial-sized rotary air compressors built to reliably handle the demands of your business.
