Air compressor manufacturing major Elgi Equipments has launched the “LD Series” range of lubricated direct drive reciprocating air compressors.

“While reciprocating air compressors have been a part of Elgi’s DNA, the company has over the years developed application-specific products to address a wide range of industry applications. The direct drive piston air compressor range is an outcome of our focus towards helping organisations lower energy consumption and operating costs, while achieving their productivity goals,” Rajesh Premchandran, Director, Elgi for India, South Asia, Africa and Middle East markets said.

Premchandran added that with a unique integrated motor and top block design, the LD series would not only reduce the life-cycle cost but also ensure superior performance.

“Customers in India are challenged with increasing electricity cost, limited industrial floor space and fluctuating market demand. The LD series has been designed taking all these into consideration,” he said.

This air compressor is best suited for application across general engineering, automotive, textile, plastics, rubber and wood-working industrial segments. These industry segments specifically require high-performing piston air compressors to meet fluctuating air needs and ensure energy efficiency, ease of maintenance and low noise compressor operations, Premchandran said.

A letter from the Editor

Dear Readers,

The coronavirus crisis has changed the world completely in the last few months. All of us have been locked into our homes, economic activity has come to a near standstill. Everyone has been impacted.

Including your favourite business and financial newspaper. Our printing and distribution chains have been severely disrupted across the country, leaving readers without access to newspapers.
