Fluid power systems

Fluid power systems
 
 transmitting power through the use of liquids, such as oil or water, is known as hydraulics, the use of compressed air to transmit power is known as pneumatics.
 
The intentionally pent-up energy can easily be controlled and accurately released when used with fluid power manifolds and valves. The main idea behind fluid power is based on Law created by French mathematician Blaise Pascal.
 
 The first is that when a liquid is enclosed in a space and pressure is applied to the liquid, this pressure will be transferred to all parts of the liquid equally. The second principle is that liquid cannot be compressed. A hydraulic system is one that uses the pressure of a liquid to perform mechanical work.
 
The pneumatic system uses compressed air instead of oil. The air pressure then rises and when a valve is opened, the air rushes out of the system. The pressure of this escaping air can do work.
Fluid power systems provide easy, accurate control.
 
 With today's technology, both analog and digital control is possible regarding fluid power.
 
Without rigged machine parts, fluid motion can be transferred effortlessly.
 
 
Industries and fields that use hydraulic and pneumatic technology regularly include construction, aerospace, agriculture, automation, robotics, among others. Utilizing fluid power ensures not only powerful, but controlled motion.
 
Integrating electronics and computer controls, industries are constantly finding new ways to use fluid power.
