Investigation of axial positioning for flexural compressorsThe testing of the research compressor is presented. The research compressor was assembled and disassembled in order to show the consistency in which the piston and rod could be aligned with a .0004 inch radial gap around the piston. A full set of tests was completed for the first assembly, which is referred to as assembly no. 1. The compressor was disassembled and assembled a second time (assembly no. 2). Assembly no. 2 was only tested statically due to the time constraint. Results are discussed.
