    Compressor air dryer

    I am busy installing a 80 gal air compressor in my workshop and I am looking for advice on a good air dryer. I intend to use the air for my CNC machine.

    Regards,

    I've got a Hankison dryer. No complaints.

    If the compressor is a piston type you want the high temperature dryer. 17 CFM minimum. I found a used Hankison 35 CFM for $200 and it works great. Generally I think they run about $1000-1500 new. Dave
