Group 16.75 - Pneumatic Demonstrator Applications with Digital Electronic Control

This project is sponsored by:

Our team aims to bridge the existing instructional tools and pneumatics technology. Our proposed instructional system helps students understand industry-standard pneumatic systems and Proportion-Air components. We have added modules to an existing device for Proportion-Air's engineer and sales training. With our system we can control power output, rotary pneumatic actuator speed, and vacuum systems to demonstrate system power control, cutting speed, and suction cups.

Project Details

Problem Statement

Proportion-Air has tasked us with creating a pneumatic demonstrator to show the variation of pneumatic power by controlling pressure and flow.
