Carnot Compression Brings Innovative Air Compressor to One of America’s Oldest Industries

Sale to Oregon dairy farm marks commercialization of ground-breaking technology

Carnot Compression Inc. (Carnot) is pleased to announce its first partnership in the Dairy Industry.  Tilla-Bay Farms of Tillamook Oregon is purchasing a Carnot™ Compressor for its robotic milking operations.

“Carnot Compression is commercializing its innovative technology in a compressor industry that has not seen true innovation in decades,” said Carnot CEO Todd Thompson. “It was a natural fit to do so alongside Tilla-Bay, a farm in Oregon that has a 100-plus year tradition of innovation in the dairy industry. Among many firsts, Tilla-Bay is the first to implement a robotic dairy on the West Coast.” 

“Tilla-Bay Farms is the most technologically advanced dairy in the Pacific Northwest, having operated a robotic dairy since 2011,” noted Kurt Mizee, Fourth Generation Dairyman, Tilla-Bay Farms. “Being the first customer in the industry for the Carnot™ Compressor is a natural step for Tilla-Bay to stay on the leading edge of technology innovation.”

The Carnot™ Compressor’s oil-free compression process is designed for long operating life with a 100% duty cycle. With only one moving part for the compression process, the Carnot™ Compressor is well-suited to withstand the round-the-clock cycles demanded by the industry. The result is increased uptime and lower lifetime operating costs for customers. 

The compressor is expected to be put into service on the farm in Q2 2021.
