Servopneumatics

Mode of operation

• Compressed air is guided into a cylinder.
• The compressed air displaces the piston in the cylinder
• A linear position encoder is installed parallel to the cylinder, and pressure sensors are installed in the two proportional valve chambers.
• The position of the piston can be controlled using the position encoder and the pressure sensors.
• This is how positioning tasks can also be carried out using pneumatics.
