Valve and Speed Controller
Valve and Speed Controller Set
The valve and speed controller set includes a manual valve that can be used to turn ON/OFF the application of compressed air to the Pneumuscle, a speed controller, a throttle valve, and urethane tubes. (Air pressure source must be prepared separately.)
Tubes with 4 mm and 1.8 mm outer diameters and joints for each are included, so you can choose the appropriate ones for your purpose and operating environment.
The speed controller can control the drive speed of either the contraction or return side of the Pneumuscle. The throttle valve can also control both drive speeds. (Please check out the video below.)
