Taking It Simple with Pneumatic Devices

Sept. 8, 2010

A growing number of potential new customers don't like that we use pneumatics to power some simple linear motion requirements. Simplicity is being pushed aside by users who don't want the air supply and maintenance hassles and who aren't aware of the increasing comparable digital connectivity of many pneumatic devices. We'd prefer to keep it simple. Who's right?
