Pneumatics and Hydraulics

Pneumatics is a branch of engineering that deals with the design, construction, and application of devices in which compressed air is the carrier of energy and control signals. Usually, overpressure, produced in components specially designed for air preparation, is applied. However, vacuum is used in devices such as suction cups or grippers. Pneumatic elements require a high-quality medium, therefore, apart from components that provide the gases with appropriate operating parameters, purification systems are also important.

Applications of pneumatics

Pneumatics is now a very common way of transmitting power and control signals in industry. In addition, compressed air or another gas (with similar properties) may, depending on the system, act as a medium that dissipates heat or lubricates moving parts. The precision, durability, and performance of the pneumatics enable them to be used for a long time even in difficult working conditions. Its main recipients are industrial plants.
