Pneumatic joints are the connecting points between pipelines, which can be disassembled and assembled between components and pipelines. It plays an indispensable role in pipe fittings and is one of the two main components of hydraulic pipelines.

Pneumatic joints have complex types, and commonly used pneumatic joints can be divided into two types: hard pneumatic joints and soft pneumatic joints. If classified according to the connection method between pneumatic joints and pipelines, there are three types of hard pneumatic joints: expansion type, sleeve type, and welding type, while soft pneumatic joints are mainly compression type rubber pneumatic joints.

The advantages of pneumatic joint components include the following 6 points

1. The working medium for pneumatic joint components is inexhaustible air. The air itself does not cost any money, the exhaust treatment is simple, does not pollute the environment, and the cost is low.

2. Pneumatic equipment has a simple and easy structure, simple equipment maintenance, low pressure rating, and safe operation.

3. High reliability and long service life. The number of actions of electrical components is about one million times, while the lifespan of general solenoid valves in Jinan pneumatic components is greater than 30 million times, and small valves exceed 200 million times.

4. The adjustment of output force and operation speed is very easy, and the action speed of the cylinder is generally 50-500mm/s, which is faster than the action speed of hydraulic and electrical methods.

5. Due to minimal loss of air activity, compressed air can be concentrated and supplied for long-distance transportation.

6. Pneumatic components utilize the compressibility of air to store energy and complete centralized gas supply. It can release energy in a short period of time to achieve high-speed response during intermittent movements, complete buffering, and has strong adaptability to impact loads and overloads. Can enable pneumatic equipment to have self-sustaining ability.

Because pneumatic joints belong to detachable connecting components, in addition to meeting the requirements of stable connection, strong sealing, reasonable size, small pressure loss, and good process performance, they also need to meet the requirements of convenient disassembly and assembly. Therefore, do not underestimate the small pneumatic joints, because only their existence can support the existence of the entire hydraulic system.
