With this unit we can run at constant ~2bar (31psi) without fear of overheating since compressor engine isn&#8217;t on continuously. Using reserve air flow in tank we are able to also press up to 3.5bar (50psi) for short jobs.<\/p>\n<p>The best setup for me would be compressor rated to >6cfm, huge 70+ gallons tank <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ever-power.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/122-Laser-Cutting-Air-Compressor.jpg\" align=\"left\" width=\"220\" style=\"padding:10px;\" alt=\"\" title=\"\">rated to 10bar (140psi) and software air <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ever-power.net\/product\/air-compressor-for-laser-cutting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Air Compressor For Laser Cutting<\/a> control via solenoid valve.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When choosing compressor you need to consider if it will be able to constantly provide desired pressure and volume of air.
