air pressure systems
The use of pressure media such as air or gases is generally referred to as pneumatics. These pressure media are often used to create mechanical movements using pneumatic cylinders. You will also be used in various other areas.
Similar to the hydraulics, the pneumatics is part of the fluid technology and serves as a drive technology. With pneumatics, the focus is on the flow behavior of liquids, although the working medium is always a compressed air instead of liquid. Incidentally, the word "pneumatics" comes from the Greek word "pneuma", which means "touch" or "wind". In the pneumatics, compressed air refers to the sucked -out atmospheric air, which is initially compressed and cleaned before it is used in different areas. Pneumatic systems are used to produce, prepare and distribute compressed air until it is available for their actual purpose.
compressed air is now used for a variety of work processes:
- for the creation of mechanical movements in pneumatic cylinders, for example for tensioning, exhausting and transporting workpieces.
- for transporting parts with the help of vacuum cleaners and grabs.
- for drying or blowing out using compressed air nozzles.
- to dribble screw, grinding and drilling machines.
- for valve switching via a pneumatic pilot valve.
- for applying coatings and painting using spray technology.
pneumatic drives are used in various industries, including:
- the chemical industry.
- The wood and paper industry.
- Forest and agriculture.
- the water supply and food industry.
- mechanical engineering and process engineering industry.
- Mining and the mineral oil industry.
- core research, space technology and medical technology.
Regardless of the area in which you want to use pneumatics, we offer high -quality components for almost every purpose.
