Boge Compressors launched an extended range of air-cooled oil free screw compressors at the recent ComVac fair in Hanover, Germany
A Boge Service Technician recently visited the carpentry workshop to provide a complimentary service.
The technician reported that the piston was in good working order with no defects.
Mr Felix Mohn of Mohn Carpenters commented "Although this old piston compressor won't win any beauty awards, it is still highly appreciated for both its quality and dependability.
After the Boge Service Technician changed the oil and renewed the air filter it has continued to work as usual and we are proud to show it to all our visitors".
The Boge piston compressor was originally developed in 1925 primarily to meet the compressed air needs of vehicle workshops and petrol stations, where compressed air was used to inflate tyres and operate lifting ramps.
As the Boge experience and knowledge in compressors grew so did the product range, that now includes the award winning range of S Series screw compressors.
Piston compressors remain a very important part of the Boge product portfolio where the slow speed cast pumps provide reliable compressed air up to 40 bar pressure. Request a free brochure from Boge Compressors ...
