Who invented pneumatics?
Pneumatics have been used for thousands of years, ever since hunters used the blow-gun to take down their prey.
What are the properties of hydraulics and pneumatics?
One similarity is that they both use fluids. Both gasses and liquids are fluids. the two are also compressible.
When has pneumatics been used?
more than your life time
What are pneumatics good for?
Pneumatics is the when you use compressed air to move a pistion, a pistion could be virtually many things. ---- It is just like a hydraulic system but instead of a fluid you use air as the working fluid.
Is Hydraulics More Effective Then Pneumatics?
My thoughts go like this...(from watching 'Scrapheap Challenge"0 plus a little basic knowledge of physics. 1/ Pneumatics involve the movement of pistons and what not via the medium of compressed air or air under pressure. 2/ Hydraulics involve the movement of pistons and what not via the medium of compressed fluids or fluid under pressure. 3/ Fluid is denser than gas (compressed air). I believe hydraulics can handle far heavier loads than pneumatics. Pneumatics would appear to use a lighter more flexible medium than hydraulics. In answer to your question, I believe hydraulics would be far more effective at manipulating heavy loads versus pneumatics. However, pneumatics would be a more flexible system than hydraulics. Hows that?
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)

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
