Hello to everyone,

It's my first time here and for what I've read, it looks really cool !!! I would like to know if anyone of you has had any contact or knows about air compressors driven not by motors but by a magnets positioned in the cylinder. I'm looking for small cylinder-piston or diaphragm compressors that use this kind of drive. also I would like to know where to find miniature compressors like the ones used in portable car air units that work with up to 250 psi.

Thanks in advance.

You are probably speaking about membrane air pumps that may be driven by an electromagnet at the frequency of the mains supply. These are cheap quality components that are available on the market.
The same applies to minicompressors: you should make a search to find out the suppliers in your zone. prex
