What is pneumatic?

Pneumatics is a technology that uses compressed gas (typically air) to transmit and control power. Pneumatic systems are commonly used for automation, such as in factory assembly lines, powering pneumatic tools like jackhammers, and in braking systems for large vehicles like trucks and buses. They are favored for their simplicity, reliability, and safety, especially in environments where electrical sparks could be hazardous.
