1.Basic hydraulic components?

 Reservoir
The reservoir is a tank that holds the hydraulic fluid (usually oil). It provides a storage area
for the fluid and helps in dissipating heat generated during operation.
Function: It ensures a steady supply of fluid to the pump and helps maintain the system's
temperature.

Example: In a hydraulic excavator, the large tank that holds hydraulic oil serves as the
reservoir.
 pump

The pump is responsible for converting mechanical energy into hydraulic energy by forcing
the fluid from the reservoir into the system.

Function: It generates the flow required to operate the hydraulic system.

Example: A hydraulic gear pump in a forklift is used to generate hydraulic pressure for lifting
loads.

 valve

Valves control the flow and direction of the hydraulic fluid. They can be of various types,
including directional control valves, pressure control valves, and flow control valves. They
can start, stop, or change the flow direction.

Function: They regulate the movement of fluid through the system, enabling precise control
of actuators.
Example: A directional control valve in a hydraulic crane controls the movement of the
crane's boom and hook.
 actuator
An actuator, often in the form of a hydraulic cylinder, converts the hydraulic energy back
into mechanical energy. It typically consists of a piston inside a cylinder filled with hydraulic
fluid.
Function: When pressurized, the hydraulic fluid pushes the piston, generating linear motion.
Example: A hydraulic cylinder in a bulldozer is an actuator that pushes and pulls to move the
bulldozer blade.
 motor
A hydraulic motor operates in a manner opposite to a pump. It converts hydraulic energy
into mechanical energy, providing rotational motion.
Function: It powers machinery and equipment that require rotary motion
Example: A hydraulic motor in a winch on a tow truck is used to reel in and release the
towing cable.

 cylinder
Hydraulic cylinders are essentially tubes with a piston inside. When pressure is applied, it
moves the piston, which in turn moves whatever is connected to it.
Example: In a hydraulic press, a cylinder is used to exert force on a workpiece to shape or
compress it.
2. 6 components of a pneumatic system

A pneumatic system is a mechanical system that uses compressed air to transmit and control
power. It's commonly used in various industrial applications. Here are the components of a
typical pneumatic system along with examples:

 Air tools
These are powered by compressed air and are commonly used for various tasks like drilling,
cutting, and fastening.
Example: Pneumatic drills, impact wrenches, and nail guns.

 air filter
The air filter removes impurities and moisture from the compressed air, ensuring that clean
and dry air is supplied to the system. This ensures the system operates smoothly and
prevents damage to components.
Example: A particulate filter or a coalescing filter.
 control valves used in air systems.
Control valves are used to regulate the flow and pressure of compressed air within the
system, they can start, stop, and direct the flow to different actuators or devices.
Example: Solenoid valves, directional control valves, and pressure relief valves.

 Actuator
Actuators are devices that convert the energy from compressed air into mechanical motion.
They can be cylinders or rotary actuators, which are used to move or control different parts
of a machine.
Example: A pneumatic cylinder that moves a conveyor belt.
 Lubricator

This component is responsible for adding a controlled amount of lubricating oil to the
compressed air. It helps reduce wear and friction in moving parts, prolonging the life of the
system Example: An oil fog lubricator.

 regulator in the air system.

A regulator maintains a consistent pressure level in the system by adjusting the pressure of
the compressed air as needed.

Example: A pneumatic pressure regulator.
