What is meant by Pneumatics?
The term "pneumatics" refers to the technology and application of compressed air to generate mechanical motion or to control machines and systems. Pneumatic systems use compressed air to transfer energy and perform mechanical tasks, such as lifting, pressing, or moving objects. These systems are widely used in industry, particularly in automation technology and manufacturing.
Typical software functions in the area of "pneumatics":
- System Design: Creation and planning of pneumatic systems and circuits using CAD software.
- Simulation: Simulation of pneumatic systems to verify functionality and performance before physical implementation.
- Component Selection: Selection and integration of suitable pneumatic components from an extensive library.
- Pressure and Flow Calculation: Calculation and optimization of pressure and flow rates in pneumatic systems.
- Fault Diagnosis: Automated diagnosis of faults and issues within the pneumatic system.
- Maintenance Planning: Creation of maintenance schedules and logs to ensure reliable and efficient system performance.
- Documentation: Generation of technical documentation and reports on pneumatic systems.
- Real-Time Monitoring: Monitoring and controlling pneumatic systems in real-time for immediate adjustment and troubleshooting.
