Match the drive and package to how your plant runs.

Base-mounted screw compressors for factories that need steady air, lower noise and practical service access.

Base load

Fixed-Speed

Simple, proven compressors for stable demand and production lines with predictable air consumption.

Available: Mark MSS · Atlas HS MS
Star

Variable-Speed (VSD)

Matches motor speed to air demand to reduce unload time and energy waste in variable plants.

Available: Mark MSS PM · Atlas HS PMC
Efficiency

Two-Stage

Two compression stages lower the work per stage for higher efficiency on larger systems.

Available: Mark TMDD · Atlas HS BD
Special

Low-Pressure

Lower-pressure screw air for textiles, conveying and processes that need volume more than bar.

Available: Atlas HS low-pressure

How it works

Why screw beats piston for continuous duty.

Twin rotating screws

Two meshing helical rotors draw air in and squeeze it along their length for smooth flow with no pulsation.

Oil-injected sealing and cooling

Injected oil seals rotor clearances, removes heat and lubricates before separation downstream.

Built for 100% duty

A screw compressor is designed to run all day with steadier pressure, lower noise and longer life than piston machines.

Downstream air quality

A compressor needs clean, dry air downstream.

Treat condensate, oil carryover and particulates before they reach tools, valves or the final product.

  • Dryers for +5 C or -40 C dew point targets.
  • Filters for particulate, oil aerosol and vapour polishing.
  • Receivers, auto drains and separators to stabilise the whole room.
