In which type of system does power transmission takes place through compressed air?
Show Hint
Power Transmission Systems. Hydraulics use pressurized liquids. Pneumatics use pressurized gases (usually air). Fluid Power covers both. Electrical systems use electricity.
- Fluid Power System: A general term encompassing both hydraulic and pneumatic systems
- Hydraulic System: Uses pressurized liquids (typically oil) as the working fluid to transmit power
- Pneumatic System: Uses pressurized gases (most commonly compressed air) as the working fluid to transmit power
- Stepper Motor: An electromechanical device that converts electrical pulses into discrete mechanical movements (steps); it uses electrical power
Therefore, the system that transmits power using compressed air is a pneumatic system
