- Diaphragm compressors
- Single-acting air compressors
- Double-acting air compressors
- “V”-shaped air compressors
- Tandem Piston compressors
Rotary air compressors can also be further divided into:
- Vane type air compressors
- Screw compressors
- Lobe and scroll compressors
- Many more
There are also different kinds of roto-dynamic compressors, including:
- Centrifugal air compressors
- Axial flow air compressors
