Pneumatic Automation Technology Course

Course Description:

Pneumatic devices play an important role in any overall operation of any factory, bicycle pumps, car tires, air tools and equipment so it’s important you know the benefits, as well as the restrictions, as you come across a pneumatic system on a daily basis. In this course you’ll learn the basic theory of pneumatic system, take an in-depth look at the components that make up a compressed air system and also consider the hazards and safety precautions associated with pneumatics. Knowing how to troubleshoot and fix these problems with pneumatic devices will allow you to get your system quickly back into operation. In this course we use examples teaching you about basic pneumatic devices and their functions, you’ll also learn about commonly used symbols and how they are used diagnosing and correcting problems. The call incorporates component symbols, actuators/cylinders, connectors, and more. In addition, it will cover air properties, compressors, effects of moisture in a pneumatic system, directional control valves, air filtering, and pressure control valves. The students will interact with each other teaching them an array of basic pneumatic topics, from basic pneumatic circuits to principles of pneumatic pressure and air flow. The student will receive a Certificate of Completion for attending all sessions.
