Desenvolvimento de bancada didática voltada ao estudo de Sistemas pneumáticos

Abstract

Didactic workbenches are effective teaching tools for the complete training of students at various levels. The use of this multi-sensory learning resource as a complement to the theory taught in classroom offers to student the opportunity to seek autonomy in the construction of his own knowledge. As the focus area of this work is the teaching process on pneumatics, the bench developed here seeks to reproduce conditions in which the student is faced with situations he can develop a critical analysis about applied theory and consequently solve problems quickly and efficiently. Efficiency is the key word in the engineering professional environment. Companies are increasingly seeking more qualified professionals for different areas. With the advent of automation this requirement has become even greater. In these automation systems, pneumatics is widely applied for the execution of various processes from product transport on production lines to the use of large pistons in manufacturing processes. This point makes clear the real importance of a complete teaching focused on pneumatic systems so that the student, when he finishes his graduation, can be prepared to offer solutions.
