FAQ
Q Pneumatic vs hydraulic?
A
Pneumatic: < 0.7 MPa, fast (> 1 m/s), low precision. Hydraulic: > 7 MPa, heavy load, slow, high precision. Assembly → pneumatic; heavy press → hydraulic.
Q Compressed air quality?
A
ISO 8573-1 three-tuple (particle/water/oil). Instrumentation [1:4:1]; food/pharma [1:2:1] oil-free; standard pneumatic [3:5:3].
Q Pneumatic energy savings?
A
Pipe leakage 20-40% of consumption. Periodic ultrasonic leak detection + machine-level pressure regulation (0.45 MPa not full) saves 30%.
