Abstract
Pneumatic power is widely used in industry for its cleanliness, safety and high force density. The Automatic Pneumatic Hammer Machine converts compressed air energy into mechanical impact energy through a reciprocating cylinder-driven hammer.
The system consists of a double-acting pneumatic cylinder mounted on a rigid mild-steel frame, a pair of 5/2 solenoid valves, an air compressor with regulator, and an electronic control circuit (timer or Arduino) that alternates the valves to produce continuous up-and-down motion of the hammer head.
It is an excellent final-year project for Mechanical and Mechatronics students to demonstrate pneumatic circuit design, automation and practical fabrication skills.
