“VMAC believes that every new product developed should offer significant value to customers beyond what’s available on the market,” explains Gordon Duval, VMAC’s VP of Sales & Marketing. “The DTM185, G30+GEN, and 5-in-1 Multifunction are no exception.”

DTM185 

The DTM185 is the world’s only direct-transmission mounted PTO-driven air compressor, producing 185 CFM at 100% duty cycle. The DTM185 was designed and engineered by VMAC to meet the demand for a powerful vehicle integrated air compressor with a simplified installation for upfitters. Unlike other underdeck systems, the DTM185’s installation does not require an additional drive shaft, which can lead to increased costs, alignment issues, excessive vibration, and servicing downtime.

G30+GEN

VMAC’s newly released G30+GEN delivers compressed air at 25 CFM and AC power at 3600 W, combining two convenient forms of power into one single innovative system powered by a Honda GX390 gas engine.

The G30+GEN improves job site workflow, allowing operators to quickly switch between air and AC power for their pneumatic tools, electric tools, lights, and other equipment.

With its proven rotary screw technology, VMAC’s G30+GEN is 40% smaller and 36% lighter than other gas-powered air compressor/generator combos.

“The G30+GEN is a system that maximizes vehicle space,” said Tod Gilbert, president of VMAC. “If you use both air and electric power, the G30+GEN eliminates the need for two pieces of bulky equipment—which traditionally take up a significant amount of deck space—by combining two types of power into the smallest, lightest footprint possible.”

Multifunction Power System

The new 5-in-1 Multifunction Power System, powered by a Honda iGX800 V-Twin EFI gas engine, includes a 40 CFM rotary screw air compressor, an 8 kW generator, a 250 amp welder, a 300 amp battery booster, and a 12/24 V battery charger. At the request of its North American dealer network, VMAC leveraged its 10 years of experience designing multi-power systems to develop a gas-powered 5-in-1 Multifunction, which includes all the best features of traditional gas and diesel multi-power systems, but with more power and in a smaller, lighter package.

“VMAC works closely with our dealers, customers, and partners to continually improve our existing products and deliver new product innovations, such as the DTM185, the G30+GEN, and the 5-in-1 Multifunction power system,” says Gordon Duval. “In doing so, VMAC will continue to maintain its position as the responsive leader in compressed air innovation, empowering the industry to work more efficiently, sustainably, and profitably.”
