Both pneumatics and hydraulics belong to the category of fluids, but each has its own characteristics. Hydraulic is relatively stable, suitable for occasions with large power requirements (such as drawing molds), and is generally not used much in the electronics industry. The advantages of pneumatics are more reflected in the following aspects.
1. The pneumatic device has a simple and lightweight structure, and the medium is compressed air, which has the ability to prevent fire, explosion, and moisture. Compared with the hydraulic method, the pneumatic method can be used in high temperature situations, so it is safe to use.
2. Due to the small loss of air flow, the compressed air can be supplied centrally and transported over a long distance. The air itself does not cost money, and the exhaust treatment is simple and does not pollute the environment.
3. It is very easy to adjust the output force and working speed. The action speed of the cylinder is generally less than 1m/s, which is faster than the hydraulic action speed.
4. High reliability and long service life. For example, the service life of general solenoid valves is more than 30 million times, and some valves with good quality even exceed 200 million times.
