Scroll Compressor Model
Scroll compressor to demonstrate compression cycle and plate motion of scroll compressors. Turn the knob and the white scroll orbits, compressing gasses into the center discharge hole. Made of PLA plastic in a handheld size of around 4in diameter. We give each of our apprentices a set of compressor models in second year to aid in the discussion about function, RPMs, and potential failure modes.
