A compressor is a mechanical device that increases the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume, with air compressors being a common type used for applications like filling scuba tanks, powering street work equipment, and industrial bottling processes. Compressors matter because they enable gases to be stored, transported, and used more efficiently in a wide range of practical applications.

Een compressor is een apparaat dat een gas, vaak lucht, kan samenpersen en onder hogere druk beschikbaar stelt. Bij gasturbines en straalmotoren maakt de compressor zelfs integraal deel uit van de motor.
