Screw Air Compressor Industry Report, 2013

In 2003-2009, promoted by the rapid development of downstream industries, China's demand for air compressor and other related general machinery grew fast. Since 2009, impacted by the global economic crisis, downstream sectors have reduced the investment and hence the demand for compressors. In 2012, the total output value reached RMB 11.34 billion, an increase of 8.9% over the previous year. Screw compressors consist of twin-screw and single-screw types. The single-screw compressor features balanced stress, long service life, small leakage, high volumetric efficiency, better energy efficiency and therefore increasing application. In 2012, the sales volume of aerodynamic single-screw air compressor and technological process single-screw air compressor hit 13,153 and 553 respectively, up 8.4% and 8.3% year on year separately; the sales volume of aerodynamic twin-screw air compressor was 73,654, down 1.6% from a year earlier, while the sales volume of technological process twin
