Compressed air is not required for standard operation on this system. The published configuration lists the pneumatic connection as optional, so air would only come into play if you choose a pneumatic option or accessory that uses that connection. The base machine is set up with an air-cooled spindle, so it does not need an external water or chiller hookup for normal use.

From a utility standpoint, this makes the machine easier to place in a lab or production area, since the standard setup centers on power, coolant, and the built-in enclosure rather than plant air. If your specimen prep workflow includes an air-driven add-on, that is the point where compressed air would matter.
