And since Mr. Volcano doesn't seem to want you to ask questions on this board, perhaps you should ask him your questions. I'm sure he'd be happy to help you graciously and professionally.

I think pneumatics are used more for when you need quick movements and hydraulics focus more on power than speed.

Couldn't pneumatics include any type of gas? Not just air?

sure any gas could work

for example - how about a combo of air and diesel fumes?-

OH wait a minute- something is terribly wrong!!!!

LOL. That's not what I meant! that would be bad, considering diesel is designed to ignite w/o a spark.

I don't have my Diesel manual handy.;) Wouldn't it take considerably more pressure to ignite the fumes at room temperature than you're able to get with a FIRST (tm) compressor? (Not that I'm suggesting anyone should try it.:eek: )

a typical diesel compresses at a ratio of 14:1 to as high as 25:1

Someone figure it out, I dunno the specs of the FIRST stuff, we don't use pneumatics.
