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.

Modern aircraft engines already have a compressed air system designed for a variety of purposes, which can be upgraded and adapted for acoustic applications. Initial DLR tests conducted on the new ...

Using a standard 5-gallon compressed air tank at 125 psi, you'll only have enough energy to slowly air up two 33x12.50 tires from 10 to 25 psi.

ABATS, from Bauer Compressors, is designed to store high pressure compressed air and provide a safe filling process of the high pressure air tanks commonly used on less-lethal weapons and launchers.

The compressed air in the tank drives the air tools, and the motor cycles on and off to automatically maintain pressure in the tank. At the top of the cylinder, you'll find a valve head that holds ...

Air-up time from 15 to 30 psi: Viair uses 15 psi as a baseline and states that the compressor will fill up a 35x12.50x15-inch tire to 30 psi in 2 minutes, 45 seconds.

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 ...
