AutomationDirect announces the release of a new White Paper, “Basic Pneumatic Circuits”, which discusses common pneumatic circuits that can be used alone or as building blocks in larger pneumatics ...

Pneumatics uses compressed air to power machines, providing a clean, efficient, and safe method for various applications, including automated machinery, robotics, packaging, and construction.

The researchers designed foam-based fluidic resistors -- devices that restrict airflow in pneumatic circuits, much like how electronic resistors limit current flow in electronic circuits.
