Pneumatics: Using Compressed Air is part four of the Pneumatics eight-part training series.

No matter what type of system is used to transfer power, the result is either linear or rotary mechanical motion. Although linkages can produce complex motion patterns, the origin of the motion is always one of these two types. This course focuses on the pneumatic components that produce motion.

The course covers:

• Linear actuators
• Cylinders
• Theory of operation
• Cylinder accessories
• Seals
• Nonlinear actuators
• Rotary actuators
• Air motors
• Torque
• Nozzles and orifices.
