  Pneumatics
Pneumatics is the branch of engineering that deals with gases in motion and studies the properties of gases for the purpose of performing mechanical tasks.
As in the case of hydraulics, the theoretical framework of pneumatics is based on fluid mechanics.

 Industrial Control DesignLine | Pneumatics in food processing
Using pneumatics, particularly for washdown and sanitary food applications, is an advantage because of the low maintenance costs and downtime associated with it.
Pneumatic products are a great choice for the food industry because they withstand even the toughest environments, with a longer life expectancy due to their simple design and the limited number of internal components.
Pneumatic actuators are also used in sensitive washdown applications and with parts that are in direct contact with food.

 Pneumatics Summary   (Site not responding. Last check: )
In dentistry applications, pneumatic drills are lighter, faster and simpler than an electric drill of the same power rating (because the prime mover, the compressor, is separate from the drill and pumped air is capable of rotating the drill bit at extremely high rpm).
Pneumatic devices are also used where electric motors cannot be used for safety reasons, such as mining applications where rock drills are powered by air motors to preclude the need for electric motors deep in the mine where explosive gases may be present.
Industrial pneumatics may be contrasted with hydraulics, which uses incompressible liquid media such as oil or water instead of air.
