Air Compressor & Air Dryer
The Most Cost-Efficient Gas Solution for Burr-free Metal Cutting
The air compressor and the air dryer must be used together.
Save €20.000+/year Than Gas Cylinders
A single 40L nitrogen cylinder lasts just 30 minutes, costing over €20K annually for continuous metalcutting. So why not switch to xTool SaveGas™ solution and stop wasting money on gas tanks? No more nitrogen, argon or oxygen refills. Invest once, cut forever.
Calculation method: 4-hour processing per day, 248-day processing per year. The cost of nitrogen gas charging is calculated at €0.30 per liter. The actual usage duration and costs vary by region.
xTool SaveGas™ Nozzle
50% Gas Savings, Cut Costs Now!
xTool self-developed SaveGas™ cutting nozzle features a unique telescopic design that minimizes gas leakage and concentrates airflow for precise cuts. You only need 6 bar of air pressure to achieve cutting results comparable to 12 bar of nitrogen-cutting your gas costs to the lowest!
HyperPure™ Filtration System
xTool Ary Dryer applies a triple-stage industrial-grade filter that removes 99% of moisture, impurities, and oil to guarantee ultra-clean, dry air for peak cutting performance!

FAQ
No, the air compressor and air dryer must be used together. Otherwise, compressed air containing moisture, oil, and dust will enter the welding gun and air lines, which will not only degrade cutting performance but also damage the equipment.
So now we don't offer an option of purchasing xTool air compressor separately.
Yes, but the air compressor should meet strict requirements:
To achieve best cutting eeffcts, xTool air dryer should be used with an air compressor that has a rated pressure over 10 bar (1,0MPa), air flow over 7CFM@6 bar (200L/min@0,6MPa) when using the xTool SaveGas nozzle.
Also, the air flow that goes into the air dryer should be lower than 14,1 CFM (400L/min), the air pressure should be lower than 12,5 bar (1,25MPa), the air temperature should be lower than 50℃. Otherwise, it will cause damage to the air dryer and bad cutting effects.
The maximum air pressure output of xTool air compressor is 1.0MPa, stably providing over 0.6MPa during cutting.
When paired with xTool SaveGas™ Nozzle, it can cut up to 4mm stainless steel, 4mm aluminum, 3mm brass, 1mm carbon steel (ordinary nozzle), and 1mm galvanized steel (ordinary nozzle) with no burrs.
For thicker stainless steel, it is recommended to use nitrogen, argon, or an air compressor with a pressure above 1.2MPa.
For thicker carbon steel, oxygen cutting is advised.
xTool air compressor is compact yet delivers powerful performance, equipped with a 5.2HP high-power motor that provides up to 1.0MPa pressure and 14.1 CFM airflow, specifically designed for metal cutting.
xTool air dryer features a unique heat exchange module to rapidly cool compressed air and a three-stage precision filter system that removes 99.999% of oil and dust.
Compared to other dryers with only 1 or 2 filtration stages, xTool's filtration efficiency is significantly improved, ensuring longer lifespan and superior cutting results.
Lower cost: Nitrogen/argon cylinders are expensive. For example, a 40L nitrogen cylinder at 1.2MPa lasts only ~30 minutes, requiring frequent replacements. In contrast, an air compressor uses free ambient air and only consumes electricity, saving up to €20,000 annually.
Better performance for stainless steel: At the same settings, compressed air achieves burr-free cuts on thicker stainless steel at lower pressures. While compressed air contains oxygen, causing oxidation and darkened cut surfaces. Nitrogen delivers oxidation-free, bright white finishes.
xTool SaveGas™ Nozzle will cause surface scratches and cannot cut intricate patterns smaller than 2.5mm. If high cutting quality and pattern precision are required, it is recommended to use ordinary nozzles and high pressure over 1.2 MPa (compressed air or nitrogen/argon).
- Air compressor: 220V, 10A, 2200W rated power.
- Air dryer: 220V, 1.73A, 380W rated power.
