Pneumatic Equipment Components
Pneumatics is the use of pressurized gas to enable motion. Pneumatic movement can be achieved through the use of various components. A sustainable supply of compressed air can be made by compressing atmospheric air, which is why pneumatic components work so well in fixed installation, such as factories.
Pneumatic Equipment Components
Pneumatic systems use a variety of components to affect movement, as well as for control purposes. For efficient movement and control, the following pneumatic equipment components are used:
Pneumatic Actuators: Basic pneumatic actuators are used to trigger control valves to cause motion. Pneumatic actuators are most commonly used in assembly lines or for loading and unloading purposes.
Pneumatic Cylinders: Cylinders are a mechanical device in a pneumatic system that produces force via compressed air. Once pneumatic cylinders are actuated, compressed air enters into the tube at one end of the piston and imparts force on the piston, which causes the piston to move.
Pneumatic Fittings: This pneumatic equipment component provides control for your process by connecting to valves and providing leak-free pneumatic movement.
Pneumatic Pumps: As an air exhausting mechanism, this pneumatic equipment component sucks in outside air, compresses it and harnesses the air for use in your process.
Pneumatic Seals: Primarily used in pneumatic cylinders and valves, pneumatic seals prevent air leakage. This pneumatic equipment component is best suited in low pressure instances.
Pneumatic Tubing: This pneumatic equipment component provides protection from leakage throughout the pneumatic device.
Pneumatic Valves: Controlling air flow and preventing leakage in your pneumatic device is paramount in ensuring that your process runs efficiently. This pneumatic equipment component achieves both of these goals.
