What Information are you Looking For?

What size compressor do I need to run a Power Point Linear Buffer?

Jeff asked:

I would like to know what size compressor is need for your linear buffer?

Answer:

Hi Jeff,

To run the Power Point Linear Buffer, the data sheet says 8 cfm and minimum 90 psi. I’ve had success using a portable pancake compressor that generates 100 psi. The only problem that I had was that it runs continuously and you need to pause between passes to allow the small tank to recharge, so it’s a bit slower than if you use a larger machine.

Thanks for your question,

Captain Aurora
