What are the differences between pneumatics and hydraulics?
(a) Working fluid : Pneumatics use air, Hydraulics use Oil
(b) Power : Pneumatic power less than hydraulic power
(c) Size : P components are smaller than H components
(d) Leakage : Leaks in hydraulics cause fluid to be sticking around the components. In pneumatics, airisleakedintothe atmosphere.
(e) Pneumatics obtain power from an air compressor while hydraulics require a pump
(f) Air is compressible, hydraulic oil is not.
