Pneumatic

Pneumatics vs Hydraulics

The core principles of pneumatics mirror those of hydraulics, with one main difference: pneumatics transmits power using a gas instead of a liquid. Typically, compressed air is used, though nitrogen or other inert gases may be chosen for specific applications. In a pneumatic system, a compressor pumps air into a storage receiver, which holds a large volume of compressed air ready for use as needed.

Since atmospheric air contains dust, water vapor, and other impurities, filters and air dryers are commonly used to keep the air clean and dry, enhancing the reliability and lifespan of both components and the overall system. Pneumatic systems also incorporate various valves to control actuator direction, pressure, and speed.

Garry Beaman

SPS Mining Supplies Ltd.

I have lost count of how many times Blaine and Tracey and the whole Peerless team have help us out of a time crunch. If a delivery is not going to work, you can always ask if there is a better option and in our experience they always come through with meeting that. Tracey is knowledgeable and always answers within a few minutes of a request. Blaine is great at letting you know instead of paying more with some other vendors, Peerless can get you a better price. Peerless is one of the first vendors we reach out too!
