WORLD PIONEERS OF ROTARY TWIN SCREW COMPRESSORS HOWDEN MANUFACTURES OIL INJECTED AND OIL FREE ROTARY TWIN SCREW COMPRESSORS, AND SUPPLIES BARE SHAFT OIL INJECTED SCREW COMPRESSORS FOR USE IN THE REFRIGERATION, GAS PROCESSING AND OTHER INDUSTRIES. Rotary twin screw compressor technology was developed in the 1930s by a Swedish company, SRM, in collaboration with Howden. We manufactured the world's first operational screw compressor and further developed the technology in the 1960s with the introduction of the oil injected twin screw compressor. This has revolutionised designs of refrigeration...

Screw compressor in Howden process gas package the highest quality compressors in the industry. We employ state of the art machine tools to attain the highest possible accuracy and tolerances so as to produce compressors with high efficiency and outstanding reliability. All rotors for Howden twin screw compressors are machined from solid bar or forgings on highly accurate cutting machinery. The standard material is carbon steel, but forgings or special alloys can be used for more arduous applications. Following machining and balancing to ISO standards, male and female rotors are paired for...

TWIN SCREW COMPRESSORS DESIGN CONCEPT Compression is achieved by the intermeshing of two helical rotors contained in a suitable casing. Figures 1-4 give details of the compression cycle. The Howden twin screw compressor is a positive displacement rotary design. As such it has the characteristics and stability of reciprocating compressors but in addition offers particular • Reduced physical size. • Fewer moving parts. • Extended operating life cycle. Our compressors have a range of design options. • Twin wall construction with sleeve bearings. • Single wall construction with roller bearings....
