Compressors

Post by pichousepreston »

Hello again
I have acquired a Cassesse 3099, so need a compressor. Needs to be small & quiet and also to run a Tabmaster canvas stretcher and Gunnar CMC (which I have been told don't need a lot of air use) Won't be using all 3 items at once.
Any advice on which compressor and prices please?
Thanks

Get a big hydrovan as you will probably invest in a casesse 969 saw as well :giggle: :giggle: :giggle:

Hydrovanes are the DB's the single phase are quieter than the 3 phase. I have a large 3 KW 3 phase with a 250 L tank which i bought refurbished (very good indeed better than the new models) for £1000 from compressorman.com.

I used to run a CMC and 3099 on a twin pot bambi but one of those will probably set you back £500 new. They are probably more suited to your needs, but will not leave you with any room for further expansion.

We have a CompAir V02 that runs our 3 assembly blowers, flexi gun, saw, pinner and CMC.

I won't end up with a saw, got a hydraulic morso. I have been informed that the SOFC 100 from Framers Corner will suffice. Any thoughts?

Thanks
