That means compressed air, and that means a pressure vessel. Since just about everything else on this robot is 3D printed, they asked the obvious question. Is it possible to 3D print a tank for ...

Study the physics, do the math, and a 40-gallon compressed air tank pressurized to 100 psi has the explosive power of a stick of dynamite. Depending on circumstances, that’s enough to blow all ...

First conceptualized in 2007, Tata Motors announced details of a plan to develop a car which ran purely on air. The car was ...

With the growing global demand for renewable energy, effectively storing and utilizing these intermittent energy sources has ...

as this compressed air cannon from [OtisLiu153] demonstrates. The build uses PVC pipes for both the barrel and the air tank. In the case of the latter, avoiding over-pressurization is key to ...

The scientists created a pneumatic drive system consisting of two 40-liter compressed air tanks that are connected to a 6-hp "air motor," which is in turn coupled to a propeller via a steel shaft.

The vehicle, which uses a motor powered by 4,000 psi of compressed air stored in carbon fiber tanks, will actually start production in India soon – after 15 years in development – thanks to ...

From powering pneumatic tools that drive nails and demolish concrete to inflating tires and operating paint sprayers, air compressors are the unsung heroes of construction sites, enabling a wide array ...

Turn the air compressor on. Some have a rocker switch, and others have a start button. The tank will now begin to fill with compressed air. Any tool attached at this point may not function ...
