Compressed air provision device and method

A system comprising a drive cylinder and a compressed air provision device for carrying out a closed-loop control of the drive cylinder on the basis of controller parameters, wherein the closed-loop control is a closed-loop position control or a closed-loop pressure control, the compressed air provision device comprising a sensor arrangement for providing a feedback signal, a computing unit executing a controller algorithm for providing a controller signal based on a setpoint and the feedback signal, the compressed air provision device further comprising a valve device for outputting compressed air to the drive cylinder, the compressed air provision device having a machine-learning model and being adapted to provide, using the machine-learning model, the controller parameters on the basis of entered system parameters which describe physical properties of a system in which the compressed air provision device is to be used, and to carry out the closed-loop control on the basis of the provided controller parameters, wherein the system parameters comprise a dimension, a volume, a mass, a friction, an angle and/or a pressure.
