AutomationDirect announces the release of a new White Paper, “Basic Pneumatic Circuits”, which discusses common pneumatic circuits that can be used alone or as building blocks in larger pneumatics ...

Pneumatics looks at the use of compressed air to create a circuit. A pneumatic circuit is made up of an input, process, and output. Pneumatics are used in everyday life for example compressed air is ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Soft robotics is designed to create flexible, adaptable devices capable of safe interaction with humans and delicate objects. This field has captivated researchers and engineers ...

Learn how connected pneumatic circuits can benefit operations through greater efficiency, improved productivity, and reduced machine downtimes. The connected circuit improves upon traditional ...

Engineers have shown that something as simple as the flow of air through open-cell foam can be used to perform digital computation, analog sensing and combined digital-analog control in soft ...

I am disappointed every time I see the flow coefficient C v used to size a valve without consideration given to the other components in a pneumatic circuit. In the old days, a focus on the valve alone ...

A device containing a pneumatic logic circuit made from 21 microfluidic valves could be used as a new type of air-powered computer that does not require any electronic components. The device could ...

Engineers have created a four-legged soft robot that doesn't need any electronics to work. The robot only needs a constant source of pressurized air for all its functions, including its controls and ...

Pneumatic control systems are used in various applications, including: A single acting cylinder (SAC) is a type of pneumatic actuator that produces force and movement in one direction only. It has a ...
