Light Machines:

For the development of an infrastructure and manufacturing industries, light machineries play a pivotal role. The importance of these machinery lies in their applications. They are used in both small and big industries and also for the construction development and maintenance of big infrastructures. Some of the commonly used light machineries are :

1.Air Compressor.
2.Automatic Brick Making Machine.
3.Compactor.
4.Lift Trucks.
5.Mini Excavators.
6.Plate Compactors.

Air compressor:

An air compressor is a light machine which is considered to be the central power source for all varieties of air tools. Air compressors reduces the volume of a gas while increasing the pressure and heat. The pressure and the heat so generated has many industrial and small infrastructural applications.

There are two main sources of power for an air compressor-gasoline and electric supply. Gas powered air compressor are applied in those areas where there is no electric supply. Whereas electric powered air compressor are best suited to those enclosed areas where gas fumes are unacceptable.

Applications:
The applications of air compressors are :
1.In manufacturing industries
2.Infrastructure construction and maintenance
3.Water well drilling
4.Mining
5.Oil and gas production
