Abstract
The decision to use compressed air for our machines was based on the following considerations:
-
1)
Easy availability.
-
2)
Ease of sterilization of compressed-air machines.
-
3)
Compressed-air machines can be stopped immediately because of their low inertia. Variable speed control is also easily achieved.
-
4)
Air-driven machines are relatively lightweight.
