The piston actuator has been designed for valves (globe and gate valves) with a linear stem movement. A special technical feature of the new actuator is a double piston in tandem arrangement used for ...

Pneumatic actuators are versatile, widely used components across production lines, robot axes and transport mechanisms. They also serve in braking systems, power generation, and the wood and paper ...

Say “thank you” to a pneumatic actuator next time you enjoy a craft beer. Or eat a watermelon. Or open a can of paint. Or interact with any of a number of objects, from cars to pills, in your daily ...

A valve actuator is defined as a mechanism that opens and closes a valve. By definition it seems simple but in reality there is nothing simple about them. There are two basic valve operating designs, ...

In a conventional pneumatic power system, the compressed air used to actuate a cylinder is vented to the atmosphere. This is inefficient, since the compressor must constantly pressurize air to ...

Abstract: Electro-pneumatic actuators play an essential role in various areas of the industry, including heavy-duty vehicles. This article deals with the control problem of an Automatic Manual ...

Abstract: Pneumatic actuators are known to be nonlinear, hence in most applications, nonlinear equations are used to describe their behavior. However, they can also be formulated as LPV systems. The ...
