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.

What are the properties of gases used in pneumatics?

Gases used in pneumatics should be non-toxic, non-flammable, and environmentally friendly. They should also have low moisture content to prevent corrosion and be easily compressible to allow for energy-efficient operation of pneumatic systems. Additionally, gases used in pneumatics should have consistent properties to ensure reliable performance in various temperature and pressure conditions.
