Pneumatics
Pneumatic Transmission of Energy
Energy is stored in a potential state in the form of compressed air. Potential energy travels through tubing/piping to the point of work. Working (kinetic) energy results when compressed air is allowed to expand.
Pneumatics (cont)
Any facility which is used to store or control compressed air which is not designed nor intended to store or control compressed air.
Advantage of Pneumatics
More Flexible More Durable More Safe
Disadvantage of Pneumatics
More Complicated? More Expensive? Harder to Find?
