From your application to the right solution
DAUCORE is my personal engineering project. I am building it to help people understand compressed air, check their inputs and make informed equipment choices.
Clarity in air. Confidence in choice.

The experience behind the project
My name is Daurbay Gabdullin. My career began in engineering and metrology before moving into industrial equipment selection and technical sales.
Working at Kazhydromet and in metrology taught me to pay close attention to measurements, inputs and reliable results. My experience at Atlas Copco and iGateway brought real customer applications into that picture: equipment selection, air treatment, operation and ownership costs.
Understand the application first
For me, good equipment selection starts with questions: where and how is air used, what flow and pressure are required, how critical are moisture and contaminants, and how many hours does the plant operate? The model and package come after that.
My professional background on LinkedIn ↗What you can do with DAUCORE
Calculate
Check flow, receiver volume, pressure drop, water content and other parameters before selecting equipment.
02Configure
Build a preliminary compressor, air treatment and gas generator configuration and save it as a PDF.
03Evaluate costs
Compare purchase, electricity, spare parts and service costs over your chosen period using your own inputs.
04Learn
Find practical explanations and prepare the questions you need to discuss a solution with a supplier or engineer.

Why DAUCORE
DAUCORE brings together the Kazakh word Däu, meaning big or great, and the English word core. For me, it represents a strong engineering centre where understanding the application forms the foundation of a reliable solution.
A compressor is often called the heart of a plant. It sends compressed air through piping to tools, actuators and process lines, much as a heart sends blood through vessels. The metaphor embraces the whole system, from the source of energy to every point of use.
DAUCORE takes a whole-system view of compressed air, from the needs of the plant to every point of use. My aim is to make the engineering clear, the calculations transparent and equipment choices well-founded.

What the results are based on
The tools use technical specifications from publicly available manufacturer documentation and the calculation models described in each calculator. Results depend on your inputs. DAUCORE supports preliminary assessment; final selection requires checking the operating point and documentation for the specific equipment.

A project shaped by practice
If DAUCORE has been useful, you can support it through feedback: report an inaccuracy, suggest a calculator, share technical experience or recommend the resource to colleagues. For collaboration or other ways to support the project, contact me directly.
