There is provided a free-piston device, comprising at least one piston chamber in which at least one piston assembly is arranged for linear displacement, the at least one piston assembly being drivable under the action of a medium which expands in an expansion space, and the at least one piston chamber having a resilience space, in which a compressible gas is contained for exerting a returning force on the at least one piston assembly, and at which a control member is arranged for controlling the returning force while the free-piston device is in operation. A method for operating a free-piston device is also proposed.
