Abstract

It is important to note that in today's industrial era, sheet metal is cut and bent into a variety of shapes to obtain better surface finish and flexibility in manufacturing processes. The use of modern techniques, such as pneumatic sheet cutting machines, has greatly improved the efficiency of sheet metal cutting and bending processes. This review focuses on the reliability, performance, and design simplification of pneumatic sheet cutting machines. Additionally, it examines the energy lost in the pneumatic cylinder while it imparts force on the cutting blade. The energy efficiency of pneumatic and compressed air systems is a critical aspect in the development of sustainable production. The objective of this cross-discipline review is to provide production and life cycle engineering researchers with an update on the state of the art in energy efficiency for pneumatic production and associated compressed air infrastructure.
