A diesel-powered, high-pressure air compressor is rated at 1,100 cyclematicdrillpress cfm and has a pressure range from 150 to 350 psi. The self-contained, 100% oil-free compressor has a "save all" base that eliminates fuel spills and oil leaks, making it one of the most environmentally friendly high-pressure units available. The diesel-driven engine stays well within the boundaries of the EPA and CARB emissions regulations. A complete line of accessories for cyclematicdrillpress the compressor is also available, ranging from aftercoolers to --40[degrees]F desiccant dryers and filters. Air compressor manufacturer, P.K. Lindsay, Deerfield, N.H., has been sold to American Eagle Accessories Group, Garner, la., a division of Stellar Industries Inc. The Lindsay air compressors are sold under the Lindsay and E.L. Smith brand names. All Lindsay compressor assets have been moved to American Eagle''s Garner plant and resumed full production. American Eagle is also a distributor of various cyclematicdrillpress truck-related accessories. According to the company, the FRL series of compressed air filters, regulators, lubricators, and manual control valves provides efficient moisture and contaminant removal, accurate pressure regulation, and precision lubrication for all air-operated equipment applications. All of the components in the series are available individually or in combination units. According to the company, its compressed-air productivity tools cut energy costs by as much as 70%, while reducing the compressor burden and shop noise levels. A 24-pg application manual shows bow these accessories provide solutions to spot chilling (to -40[degrees]F), dry machining, blow-off, control cooling, air conveying, static, liquid transfer, and spill pick-up. The products meet OSHA noise and dead-end pressure requirements. Welding shops require many types of equipment, including power supplies, guns, torches, wire feeders, flux-handling devices, and accessories such as cables and ground clamps, as well as consumables-filler metals, fluxes, and shielding gases. For brazing, shops employ furnaces and custom-built fixtures.

"Our goal for the NAFEM show is to cyclematicdrillpress increase operator participation while maintaining the same level of support from the trade," said Mike L. Carpenter, NAFEM president and president of Amco Smallwares, a division of Focus Foodservice. "The consistency of dates and location will help improve brand recognition for the industry''s premier equipment and supplies showcase."Carpenter also added that "purchasing decisions made in the first cyclematicdrillpress quarter may be implemented in time to have a positive effect on an operation''s ability to meet its sales and operational goals."

TIPIt takes a crew of three to get the most speed out of a roofing nailer: one person driving nails, the others Laying shingles in place.Air compressorIf you have your own compressor, you''ll save about $25 per day when you rent an air nailer. So if you plan to use a nailer for eight days or more, buy a compressor. If you''re framing up a wall or two, renting a framing nailer probably isn''t worth the trouble. But it will save hours on a big job like a garage or an addition. You''ll nail studs, joists and rafters quickly, but more important, you''ll nail sheathing to walls and roofs 10 times faster than you could with a hammer.
