Learn More about Bambi Air Compressors

Bambi Air Compressors are high quality and high performance systems that can be used in various environments where quiet and sterile air supply solutions are required.

The comprehensive range of systems includes a selection of effective low noise and oil free air compressors to suit everyone’s unique requirements. Here is a brief explanation of the various models available;

Bambi Budget Range

The main benefit of Bambi Budget compressors are their ultra low noise feature which allows them to be placed in the work area without causing any noise disruption. This does not interfere with their high performance capabilities as they can run effectively without with minimal vibrating. The compact design of the compressor also makes it ideal to use in smaller work spaces as well as for all types of airbrushing projects and anywhere else that compressed air is required.

Bambi HT Oil Free Range

The HT Oil Free compressors are quiet to use and benefit from a 100% oil free design. These systems are compact in size, require little maintenance and can be used for oil free applications as well as those that require a portable and strong air supply. The HT Oil Free is available in a 2 pole motor alternative that can deliver a higher output with only a slight increase in noise level.

Bambi VT Oil Free Range

The VT range features the latest Vee Twin pump which makes it one of the quietest oil free compressors on the market. It is also designed with what is called “tilting piston” technology which allows it to provide the highest possible air quality for applications in dentistry’s, laboratories, food packaging factories and other medical environments.

These Bambi compressors are available with the innovative Dry Air technology which can dispense ‘desert dry’ air, whist at the same time dramatically reducing the air temperature. The compressor requires little maintenance and is fitted with a unique start system which enables it to run off a 20 amp single phase power source.

Bambi MD Range

The MD range is ideal for applications that require the perfect combination of high performance and low noise levels. They offer a high quality air supply with an oil lubricated T75 high performance pump that can deliver up to 50% more air than other silent compressors. It is also the only silent compressor that is fitted with piston rings to prevent oil residue from interacting with the air supply. This makes the unit ideal for use in places such as laboratories and dentistry’s where cleanliness and quietness are vital factors.

5 Things to consider when choosing an airbrush compressor

5 Things to consider when choosing an airbrush compressor

 

There are a wide range of airbrush compressors to choose from on the market these days, including those with top brand names such as airbrush experts Iwata, Bambi and Jun-Air. However, if this is your first time purchasing an airbrush compressor, the wide range of choice can be more daunting than helpful.

To make the decision process a bit easier for you, here are 5 things to keep in mind when choosing an airbrush compressor, in order to make sure you get the best value for your money:

  • Think about what size compressor you will need. Most airbrushes do not need to be accompanied by a large compressor so often a smaller unit will be sufficient, particularly for at home use. If on the other hand you require it to work in a large open area, a bigger compressor may be the better option. Portable compressors are also available if you need a unit that can easily be moved around.
  • If you are dedicated to using a specific brand of airbrush products, get a compressor to match. This way you will be more likely to get the best results from your equipment.
  • Some air compressors make more noise than others so if you will be using your compressor in a confined space, be sure to select one that is quiet.
  • Choose a compressor to suit the type of projects you do, whether it may be body painting, sign making or hobby model painting.
  • Always make sure that the airbrush compressor you choose has good air pressure and a controllable air flow as this will make it easier for you to handle.
