The use of air compression for construction tools is very convenient because they normally use the energy of compressed air as opposed to electricity. Of course, when using a pneumaticpower tool, you will need an air compressor
Most air compressors run on diesel, and basic maintenance checks should always be conducted before operation. The power of compressed air can be dangerous, and caution must always be taken when an air compressor is in use. There are strict safety rules to abide by when using pneumatic power tools
The air hose must be checked for cracks or holes, and if anything suspicious is found, the hose must be replaced immediately. Before you connect the air hose to the air compression outlet, open the valve. After doing this connect the tool’s hose to the outlet and then ensure that the hose is clear of any water or foreign objects before you connect the hose to the power tool
Air breakers are designed for general demolition, and are probably one of the most popular pneumatic power tools on the market. An air breaker will be used to break medium and hard materials such as concrete and asphalt. Prior to operation of an air breaker, you must always check that all parts are securely fastened
A rock drill is probably another popular pneumatic power tool you will come across if you are using an air compressor to power your construction work. as example for that, the shotcrete application and also the soil nailing uses the air compressor power to drive the piles into the soil
