Abstract

Method for controlling a compressor which drives a pneumatic tool, with a maximum allowed pressure (p_max) and an associated compressed air consumption (q_max). The method includes the step of regulating the operating pressure (p_compr) of the compressor, and: if the operating pressure (p_compr) is lower than p_max minus a value (Z), controlling the compressor such that the flow rate supplied by the compressor is not limited; and if the operating pressure (p_compr) is higher than or equal to p_max, controlling the compressor such that the flow rate supplied by the compressor does not exceed the compressed air consumption (q_max) at p_max; and if the operating pressure (p_compr) is higher than p_max minus the value (Z) and is lower than p_max, controlling the compressor such that the operating pressure (p_compr) remains lower than p_max.
