  1. The canister is slightly smaller than the tube.  It can move in the tube, but air can't easily get past it.  You pressurize one side of the tube and FWWWP the tube shoots to the other end.


  2. Pneumatic tubes, also known as capsule pipelines or Lamson tubes, are systems in which cylindrical containers are propelled through a network of tubes by compressed air or by vacuum. They are used for transporting physical objects.
