Cast Iron Foundry Saves Over $55K While Increasing Compressed Air Capacity
Facing increased production demands, a cast iron foundry operating six rotary screw compressors needed an additional 4,500 CFM of compressed air to support its baghouses, air motors, and pumps. By transitioning to centrifugal compression, the foundry expanded its compressed air capacity while reducing energy consumption and maintenance expenses, achieving more than $55,000 in savings.
Explore the full case study to learn how centrifugal compression helped the foundry meet growing production demands, improve operational efficiency, and reduce operating costs.

How to Specify a Centrifugal Compressor for Reliability and Lower Lifecycle Costs
When specifying a centrifugal compressor, the decisions made during the engineering phase can influence far more than equipment selection. Compressor specifications affect reliability, efficiency, project costs, installation requirements, controls architecture, lead times, and long-term operational performance.
Why Manufacturers Are Switching to Oil-Free Compressed Air
Compressed air is often called the fourth utility, but in many manufacturing environments, it also plays a direct role in product quality, operational efficiency, and regulatory compliance. That makes air quality more important than many facilities realize.
The Importance of Energy Efficiency
Many manufacturers know that compressed air is often called the Fourth Utility. After water, electricity, and natural gas, compressed air is equally crucial for manufacturing, and luckily there are solutions to help improve energy efficiency to save costs and reduce greenhouse emissions. Additionally, increased efficiency is essential for ESG initiatives that ensure a healthy world for customers, employees, and communities.
