Practical Pneumatics


Book Description

Pneumatic power is ideal for the ever increasing range of 'light' applications in which a cheap, clean, adaptable source of power is needed. Used in conjunction with microprocessor control it forms the basis of manufacturing automation from basic conveying and handling lines to complex robotic assembly systems. Training courses and books aimed at the technician have not kept pace with these developments. This book is written to cover the British Fluid Power Association Pneumatics Certificate, which is also awarded as part of CGLI scheme 2340, and is in the process of NVQ accreditation at level 3. 'Practical Pneumatics' provides a clear and detailed discussion of pneumatic technology by tackling the principles of pneumatic components and the behaviour of air under compression, during treatment and in applications to production processes. The non-mathematical approach, the numerous detailed diagrams and the many exercises and examples explain concepts clearly and concisely and provide students with a foundation from which to develop practical competence.




Practical Book


Book Description

The book, entitled as 'Practical Book: Electro-pneumatics-Basic Level', contains a set of practical exercises that assist in organizing practical training involving only single actuator electro-pneumatic systems. The set of exercises is intended to strengthen the theoretical understanding and enhance the technical competence of the trainees who are undergoing a basic electro-pneumatic course.




Hydraulics and Pneumatics


Book Description

Hydraulics and Pneumatics: A Technician's and Engineer's Guide provides an introduction to the components and operation of a hydraulic or pneumatic system. This book discusses the main advantages and disadvantages of pneumatic or hydraulic systems. Organized into eight chapters, this book begins with an overview of industrial prime movers. This text then examines the three different types of positive displacement pump used in hydraulic systems, namely, gear pumps, vane pumps, and piston pumps. Other chapters consider the pressure in a hydraulic system, which can be quickly and easily controlled by devices such as unloading and pressure regulating valves. This book discusses as well the importance of control valves in pneumatic and hydraulic systems to regulate and direct the flow of fluid from compressor or pump to the various load devices. The final chapter deals with the safe-working practices of the systems. This book is a valuable resource for process control engineers.




Design of Pneumatic Systems


Book Description

A prerequisite for designing pneumatic systems is the knowledge of the functions, parameters, and specifications of the components needed for the power part, control part, and compressed air network of the system. At first, a preliminary design should be attempted as per the requirement specifications. The initial design must then be refined if required. The parameters of the system must synchronize with the data in the manufacturer's domain for the optimal design. Further, it is essential to incorporate inbuilt safety into the system. The book explains the design aspects of pneumatic systems systematically to realize the necessities as mentioned above. The book also presents many typical examples of designing pneumatic systems, in the SI units, purely for educational or guidance purpose. The knowledge gained may be applied to develop more extensive industrial pneumatic systems. Many other fluid power topics are given in other textbooks under the fluid power educational series by the same author. A list of all the books is given at the end of the book.

Pneumatic Handbook


Book Description

Accepted as the standard reference work on modern pneumatic and compressed air engineering, the new edition of this handbook has been completely revised, extended and updated to provide essential up-to-date reference material for engineers, designers, consultants and users of fluid systems.




Basic Hydraulics


Book Description

Basic Hydraulics was developed to instruct people who want to troubleshoot hydraulic machinery and hydraulic circuits. The book's material assumes no prior knowledge of hydraulics and could be used by anyone who has an interest in this particular area of fluid power. It does not cover the rebuilding of hydraulic components. In order to firmly plant the concepts of what is going on in hydraulics, this information has an orientation to a "hands-on" approach. The text uses some generalizations and other approximations and is directed at the hourly worker on the factory floor or out in the field. The test bank is available electronically on a CD or via email. Please contact Beth Hall at [email protected] to request a copy.
