Pneumatics

Pneumatics is all about using compressed air to do useful and constructive work. Compressed air is simply the the normal air you breathe forced into a smaller space. You use compressed air when you inflate a bicycle tyre or blow up a balloon. To compress the air into the tyre or balloon takes energy, which can be released by undoing the tyre valve or by letting go of the inflated balloon. Pneumatic systems use the energy stored in compressed air to do iseful work. Compressed air has many common uses, you come across them every day, but its use is in industry used to power machinery or automate production lines.
