What is the minimum size compressor (tank size) that can be used with this machine?

Right now I have a 50 gallon hooked up to it and occasionally I will run it a little flat. If you're only making a small cut every few minutes, you can use a small compressor. I'm not entirely qualified to answer your question but I do know that this machine will handle relatively large projects. It looks and feels cheap but we have not had any major problems with it yet. Word of advice, the bigger the compressor the better, purchase your tips and consumables now so you're not waiting on them, and protect the handle, it feels as though it can't take too many drops.

A small compressor 2 or3 gal. like a pancake or emglo compressor. All you need is 60-65 PSI.

I have a 60 gal tank so there is no problem with air for me. When I saw your question I went to the LOTOS web site but could not find a CF/M requirement. I would suggest you call or email LOTOS and ask.

Depends mainly on the metal thickness your cutting, Lotos suggests minimum of 52lbs PSI @ 2CFM.

I found it on the Lotos web site in the manual. The CFM requirement is only 3.8. @ 66 PSI. A small compressor should do the job. Tank size will not matter if you have at least these specs.

No bigger than the tank is it will probably work but it will run all the time. Also depends on the cfm (cubic feet per minute) but with 6 gallon of air reserved when the level drops on the air tank size of 6 gallon the compressor will kick on so heavey duty cleaning/blowing will run out of air in the tank pretty quickly. also depends on how high you have the copressor line side set to, 120 PSI is probably maximum it will run out of air pretty quickly and constant blowing will not be able to substain itself very long.

It uses very low PSI 25-35 depending on your needs. I have a similar compressor and it is more then adequate. It is very easy to clean and does excellent work.

Not totally sure, but would think if your compressor puts out something around 3 cfm at 90 psi, then it would probably work. Mine has a 6 gal tank, so with a smaller tank, the compressor might cycle on mere often.

I have one of those cheap 89$ tiny compressors. I think it only has a 2 gallon tank and must be a fraction of a HP. It works fine with this tool.

Hi Alvaro, I'm not sure what size compressor your model is. If it's a twin cylinder oil-less with 60 gallon tank it will fit. Measure the diameter of the piston. Some sellers of the item list dimensions.

First you have to measure the compressor then check out with brinmar if they have available size for your compressor.

A smaller compressor would work, but if you need tons power at least a 19cfm compressor. I would recommend the aircat gun, am not too happy with the CP7748.

You can use it for that since the upper limit is 120 PSI however as a one gallon compressor it too will take a while. On the UP side it is belt drive so won't be loud and should run cooler that the direct drive units out there.

you need to get a bigger compressor. To run those type of air tools I would suggest at least 33 gal for constant pressure.

Any compressor. But if the compressor is small, will have to stop and let it catch up

I had no trouble with this tool on my Bostitch 6 Gal 3.8CFM @ 90 PSI compressor. I did need to use 110PSI, and it could drain the tank in a min, but the tool worked quite well.

Not sure would guess a 1/2 gallon or 1.9 liters. It works great have had it for a month. Would suggest getting quick release if you have more than one airbrush. It kicks on and off a little more than I would like but I'm using it quite heavily. If you flip the switch on the compressor in the up position it will shut off when it hits the desired pressure put it in the down position if you don't want it to shut off. Hope that was helpful.

You probably need at least 4 to 5 cfm. That's typically for continuous use; if you only do small areas at a time and let the compressor rebuild the tank between it may be ok but painting requires lots of flow and a larger tank would also help. Your manual for the compressor will let you know the flow capacity. I have used it with a 3 gallon tank and 3 cfm compressor and it does not keep up for any usage longer than a minute or two.

I use an upright type shop compressor and I think anything smaller and the compressor would have to run nearly constantly to try and keep up. I've used mine to blast with glass, walnut , & sand . all with no problems. I also use a large tarp as a back drop to later collect the abrasive for reuse

The Grex uses a very small amount of air. If you are considering a compressor ONLY for the Grex, the small pancakes or small twin tanks will work adequately!

I run it with a regular compressor. But you might want a holding tank if you are going to use it alot. Its pretty taxing on the smaller compressors.
