Compressedair isakeyenergy
source for industrial production
andoffershugepotential for
cost-saving– fromproduction to
consumption. Savingsbeginby
payingattention to thepeople
workingwith compressedair.
This course focusesonpeoples’
attention to costsand improve-
ments theareasof compressed
air production, preparationand
distribution, aswell ason the
designof pneumatic circuits. This
courseparticularlymeets the
