Pneumatic Systems: Components, Operation, and Maintenance
Item 4: Spare Tire and Circuits
1. Pneumatics and Compressed Air
Pneumatics studies the movement of air under pressure or vacuum. Since 1950, its industrial application began with automation and rationalization. Basic pneumatic circuits consist of: Compressor-Air Tank-Pipes-Maintenance Unit-Quick Connectors-Pressure Hose-Actuator (motor, cylinder, blow gun).
Properties:
- Inexpensive
- Air is easily transported and can expel foreign matter
- Pressure tanks can store energy
- Less sensitive to temperature variations
Technical Drawing Fundamentals and Materials for Automotive Body Construction
Technical Drawing
Technical drawing is the graphical representation of a piece, clear, correct, and accurate on paper. Every drawing technician should:
- Be sufficiently clear so as not to give rise to equivocal shapes, dimensions, and other characteristics.
- Not accumulate unnecessary data.
Drawing Classes
- Sketch drawings of conception
- Custom defined drawings/manufacturing drawings
Dimensioning (Cota)
Indicates the actual dimensions. Dimensional cota is expressed by its direct reading and not deducted from

Attenuation of Course (I)
Fundamental physical limitation. Depends on:
- Distance and frequency of the transceiver
The signal loss due to distance is exponential, not linear. To establish a linear relationship between losses and gains, we change the unit to decibels (dB), allowing us to add them.
The parameters that influence attenuation are:
- d (distance between transmitter and receiver)
- λ (wavelength)
The wavelength depends on:
- c (speed of transmission channel – air: 300,000 km/s)
- f (frequency of transmission)
Force, Structures, and Mechanisms in Physics
Force, Structures, and Mechanisms
Force
Force is anything that can deform a body or alter its state of motion or rest.
Structures
Structures are elements within a body that support the effects of forces, preventing deformation or breakage. There are two types:
- Natural Structures: Those not involving human intervention.
- Artificial Structures: Created by humans.
Loads
Loads are the forces acting on a structure. There are two types:
- Permanent Loads: Do not change over time.
- Variable Loads: Do not maintain
ICT Network Infrastructure: Design, Implementation, and Components
1. ICT Network Structure and Stages
The stages defined within a common communications infrastructure are:
Line Power: External pipes entering the building route cables to the main registration (RITI/RITS). Services include conventional telephony, digitized services, and cable services. Radio access uses a reserved space on the building’s top (RITS).
Distribution Network: Includes main water network, multi-pair cables, records, and other items connecting the main register to the network spread. Responsibility
Turning, Milling, Grinding & Electroerosion Machining
Item 15: Turning
Introduction to Turning
Turning is a machining operation that shapes rotating workpieces using a cutting tool. Lathes are machine tools designed for turning operations. These machines mount cutting tools, often referred to as knives, to perform various turning processes.
Types of Lathes
Lathes are categorized based on their technical characteristics and the type of work they perform:
- Parallel Lathes: Used for horizontally placed workpieces.
- Vertical Lathes: Designed for heavy and difficult-
