Pneumatic positioning systems are relatively light, clean and cheap presenting a good relationship between weight and power. These features make this kind of system a good choice of actuating for most applications. It ...

This work aims to implement control techniques in a pneumatic system, using as intermediary a programmable logic controller. The applications of control techniques have proven to be efficient and necessary in diverse ...

Actuators are devices that provides controlled changes regarding their displacement and position. They can be triggered by different inputs, one of them being fluids. Pneumatic actuators are commonly used in different ...

Object manipulation and fluid, goal-directed, movements require sensory information for effective execution. Amputees lose this intrinsic feedback when controlling their artificial limbs and must instead rely on visual ...

This paper presents a machine design of a testing equipment for automotive suspension. The lack of specials tools for the diagnosis of automotive suspension components makes it difficult for automotive professionals to ...
