What is Pneumatic transmission?

Pneumatic technology is an engineering technology that uses air compressors as the power source and compressed air as the working medium to transmit energy and signals. It is one of the effective technologies to realize the automation of the production process.

The working principle of pneumatic transmission is to use an air compressor to convert the mechanical energy output by an electric motor or other prime mover into the pressure energy of air (compressed air). Then the compressed air transfers energy to the actuator under the action of a series of control elements. Through the actuator, the pressure energy is converted into mechanical energy in the form of linear motion or rotary motion, outputting force (linear cylinder) or torque (swing cylinder or air motor). ), thereby completing various actions and performing work externally.
