Abstract

A pneumatic system represents a safe and “clean” actuation mechanism. The paper presents several innovative solutions for such kind of systems. The aim is to increase the precision of positioning and especially its preservation, as it is known that, in the case of pneumatic positioning systems, these problems have not yet been solved. The proposed units provide an accurate positioning only on certain work areas, set by manual adjustment. At this moment, the presented solutions are in the prototype stage in the tests.
