Explaining the characteristics of air, including examples of configurations and advantages when used as a power source, as well as points to be cautious about.

This document explains "pneumatics," which is used as a power source for conveying equipment and robotic arms. It introduces the properties of air, including viscosity, compressibility, density, and pressure, as well as elements of state change and examples of utilization. It also discusses concepts related to "flow" that affect energy efficiency, how to calculate pressure loss, and the mechanisms and precautions when used for linear and rotational motion. 【Contents】 1. Properties of pneumatics 2. State changes in pneumatics 3. Energy in pneumatics 4. Flow in pneumatics 5. Flow characteristics of pneumatic equipment 6. Actuation by pneumatics *The document can be viewed immediately via "PDF Download."
