The machines within the 5.5 to 15 kW segment (or 7.5 to 20 HP) form an indispensable support for growing businesses within small and medium-sized enterprises. This power class is specifically designed to deliver larger volumes of compressed air for workshops where, for example, CNC machinery, carpentry equipment, or lighter production lines are continuously active. As a subgroup, this page helps you analyze the exact capacity required for your daily processes without losing track of the total offering. It is the perfect intermediate step for companies that have outgrown the lower output of a standalone 5.5 kW model but do not yet require a heavy industrial setup.
Within this range, deploying a frequency-controlled VSD compressor is highly effective, as air demand in SMEs often fluctuates sharply throughout the day. The motor adapts automatically, which directly ensures a lower energy bill and less wear on internal components. At Compressoronline, we present these technical specifications completely transparently at the maximum final pressure, so you know exactly which model fits your machinery. Should your compressed air requirements expand in the future due to heavier industrial applications, you can move directly to our heaviest class of 15 to 90 kW screw compressors within our structure, or return directly to the central category for screw compressors.
