In woodworking, compressed air is absolutely crucial in powering the machinery and tools that allow your application to run consistently and efficiently! In cabinetry and furniture manufacturing, air compressors assist in lumber processing, powering pneumatic tools such as nail guns and sprayers, and controlling the movement of lumber. Sawmills utilize compressors to cut logs/lumber to the desired measurements, sorting the lumber by size and length, and even powering the log-kicker.
