  2. Meaning: • Pneumatics is the use of pressurized gas to enable mechanical motion. Pneumatic power is used in industries where machines are most likely to be plumbed for compressed air. • Pneumatic automation can be achieved through the use of various components. Fixed installations of pneumatic automation components, such as factories, use compressed air because a sustainable supply can be made by compressing atmospheric air.

  3. Benefits: Pneumatic automation can save manufacturers a lot of money in a variety of ways. With pneumatic automation, manufactured parts are • drilled from many angles at once • held firmly during the manufacturing process • assembled at maximum speed with great accuracy • manufactured with less waste than standard manufacturing processes

  4. How does Pneumatics work? Most pneumatic systems rely on a constant supply of compressed air to make them work. This is provided by an air compressor. The compressor sucks in air from the atmosphere and stores it in a high pressure tank called a receiver. This compressed air is then supplied to the system through a series of pipes and valves. Pneumatics is all about using compressed air to do the work. Compressed air is the air from the atmosphere which is reduced in volume by compression thus increasing its pressure.

  5. Limitations • Relatively low accuracy – As pneumatic systems are powered by the force provided by compressed air, their operation is subject to the volume of the compressed air. As the volume of air may change when compressed or heated, the supply of air to the system may not be accurate, causing a decrease in the overall accuracy of the system. • Low loading – As the cylinders used in pneumatic systems are not very large, a pneumatic system cannot drive loads that are too heavy.

  6. Processing required before use – Compressed air must be processed before use to ensure the absence of water vapour or dust. Otherwise, the moving parts of the pneumatic components may wear out quickly due to friction. • Uneven moving speed – As air can easily be compressed, the moving speeds of the pistons are relatively uneven. • Noise – Noise is usually produced when the compressed air is released from the pneumatic components.

  7. There are several applications for pneumatic systems. Some of them are pneumatic presses, pneumatic drills, operation of system valves for air, water or chemicals, unloading of hoppers and bins, machine tools, pneumatic rammers, lifting and moving of objects, spray painting, holding in jigs and fixtures, holding for brazing or welding, forming operations, riveting, operation of process equipment etc.
