  3. Dc motors. Ac motors Steeper motors. ACTUATORS 1 – Pneumatic actuators Cylinders 2 – Hydraulic actuadors Cylinders Motors 3 – Electrical actuators

  4. 1 – Pneumatic actuators (cylinders) Double effect pneumatic cylinders F = P S *

  5. v a F = P S * P S - k v2 * * a = F - Ff = M a * M Ff = k v2 * V Speed is not controllable. The cylinder maximum speed is achieved when friction forces (kv2) equal those that produce the advancing movement (F = P.S), and a = 0.

  6. v v a a V v - The impact produced when reaching the end of the run is reduced using a shock absorber.

  7. Electrical valve - Electrical valve: the hydraulic-electrical interface

  8. Distributor

  9. Single effect cylinders Double effect cylinders

  10. Example of commercial pneumatic cylinders (Lateral guides to prevent axial rotation )

  11. Oval pistons to prevent the rotation of the axis avoiding the need of auxiliary guides

  12. l l 2 Classical cylinders drawbacks: a displacement of length l requires an additional length l.

  13. Dl l Solutions to reduce the occupied space

  14. Movement transmission Adjusting band Shock-absorber adjustment Cylinder’s sleeve Piston Adjusting band

  15. Pneumatic actuators (cylinders) - Economic - Reliable - High operation speed - Operation at constant force - Resistant to overloads - No speed control - Poor position speed - Noisy operation

  16. Example of pneumatic manipulator, and its mechanical states (End positions of all its cylinders)
