An air compressor is a specific type of gas compressor.
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.

壓縮機（英語：Compressor），是一種將氣體壓縮並同時提升氣體壓力的機械，其应用广泛，常见的应用领域包括：壓縮冷媒（如：冰箱、暖通空調，原理為）、壓縮空氣（如：空氣壓縮機）、壓縮氣體（如：壓縮氫氣）、提供壓縮氣體作為工业驱动動力，如：硅化工、石油化工、天然气输送等。 依據其運作原理，可分為容積式壓縮機（或稱置換式，英語：positive-displacement）與氣體動力式壓縮機（英語：aerodynamic）： 容積式壓縮機乃是將氣體導入一密閉空間中，透過壓縮原有氣體所散布的空間體積而使內部壓力上升，而將機械能轉換為壓力能。依據其壓縮方式的不同，又可分為往復式、迴轉式（如:渦捲式、螺旋式等）。 氣體動力式壓縮機則是利用葉輪的高速轉動，強制氣體高速流動以產生動能，而在通過升壓環的過程中，再透過斷面積的增加致空氣流速降低，使得氣體動能轉換為壓力能而使壓力上升。目前此型壓縮機有離心式、軸流式等。 依据润滑方式，可分为：无油式压縮机和油润滑式压縮机。依据性能，可分为：低噪音，可变频，防爆。依据性能，可分为：固定式，移动式，封闭式。 主要的氣體壓縮機分類圖示如下：
