Pneumatics is the use of pressurized air to effect mechanical motion. Pneumatics is used in a variety of different areas.For example in dentistry applications, pneumatic drills are lighter, faster, and simpler than an electric drill of the same power rating (because the prime component, the compressor, is separate from the drill and pumped air is capable of rotating the drill bit at extremely high rpm). Pneumatic transfer systems are employed in many industries to move powders and devices. Pneumatic tubes can carry objects over distances. Pneumatic devices are also used where electric motors cannot be used for safety reasons, such as deep in a mine where explosive dust or gases may be present.

Where are pneumatics used?
people
How is pneumatics used for cutting?
it isn't
Who invented pneumatics?
Pneumatics have been used for thousands of years, ever since hunters used the blow-gun to take down their prey.
Uses of pneumatics in automobile machine?
In an Automobile Pneumatics is used in tyres, breaks, suspension speed control and time delay
What fluids is used in pneumatics?
They are gases, usually air.
When has pneumatics been used?
more than your life time
What is pneumatics all about?
Pneumatics is the use of pressurized gas to affect mechanical motion.
How do you reverse pneumatics?
you dont
Does a fridge use pneumatics or hydralics?
it compresses and expands gas so i would say pneumatics but not in the normal sense
Similarities between hydraulics and pneumatics?
easy: Both use pressure now hydrolics used liquids (liquids cannot be compressed) to exhert pressure pneumatics uses gasses which are compressed to exhurt pressure thtas the basics anyway
When to choose pneumatic or electric actuators?
pneumatics are used only in low power applications hydraulics are used in medium to high power applications.
With regard to compressibility how the working fluids in pneumatics and hydraulics differ?
Fluids are used in Hydraulics - fluids are essentially incompressible - they transmit forces well (e.g. a car bottle lack) Gases are used in pneumatics - gases are compressible - you can therefore store energy in a pneumatic system (e.g. a car tyre)
