1. Introduction in Pneumatics :

Pneumatics has for some considerable time been

used for carrying out the simplest mechanical tasks, but in

more recent times has played a more important role in the

development of pneumatic technology for automation.

In the majority of applications compressed air is used for

one or more of the following functions:

• To determine the status of processors (sensors(

• Information processing (processors(

• Switching of actuators by means of final control

elements

• Carrying out work (actuators(

To be able to control machinery and installations

necessitates the construction of a generally complex logic

interconnection of statuses and switching conditions. This

occurs as a result of the interaction of sensors,

processors, control elements and actuators in pneumatic or

partly pneumatic systems.

The technological progress made in material, design and

production processes has further improved the quality and

diversity of pneumatic components and thereb7 contributed

to their widely spread use in automation.

The pneumatic cylinder has a significant role as a linear

drive unit, due

3.4. Function Chart :

The function chart (fig. 3.4) gives a clear picture of

action, and reactions in sequences. The diagram describes the following sequence:

Barrier cylinder 3A is retracted (3A-) and limit valve then

operated is 1.1 (3A extend directly with its return

spring). (step 1 )

This limit 1.1 initiates the extension of cylinder 1A

(1A+) and the limit valve 2.1 is operated. (step 2 )

This limit 2.1 initiate the extension of cylinder 2A

(2A+) which actuate the valve 1.2 . (step 3 )

This limit 1.2 initiates the retraction of 1A (1A-). (2A

retracting automatically via roller valve with its

return spring). (step4)

5.1. Compressed air supply:

The compressed air supply (fig. 5.1) provides the needed

compressed air. It contains a pressure control valve

that can be adjusted to output the desired operating

pressure. (Note: the compressed air must be filtration,

separated and provides with oil vapors to reduce the

friction due to sliding of moving parts via Air service

unit )

Adjustable parameters:

Operating pressure: 0…..20 bar (6 bar).

5.1.1. Compressed air supply, piston compressor :

The piston compressor (Fig. 5.2) is widely used

. Multi-stage compressors are required

for compressing to high pressure.

The drawn in air is compressed by the first piston,

cooled and then compressed further by the next stage.

5.1.2. Compressed air supply, axial flow compressor :Flow compressors produce large volumes of air

at small increases in stage pressure.

The air is accelerated by the blades of

the compressor but there is only a small

increase in pressure (Fig. 5.3).

5.2. Valves in use :

5.2.1. The operating Valve (manually switching) :

This valve of 3/2-way (Fig. 5.4) change in it's two

position manually it's rod moves left and right and

remain in the actuated position until it actuated

handedly again.

The valve actuated from right to left,hence (2) connecting with exit (3) so it’s inan switch off position.

5.2.2. directional control valve:

The 4/2-way directional control valve (Fig. 5.5)

consists of one enter 1 and tow exits 4 and 2,

this valve change it's position by a signal actuates

from side A or B.

15

Fig. 5.4 operating Valve (manually switching)

Lifting and pushing cylinders pneumatic system:Seminar

If an air signalactuates from B, the air flow from 1 to 2 and 4 connectswith exit 3.

If an air signal actuates from A, the air flow from 1 to 4 and 2 connects with exit3.

5.2.3. 3/2-way roller lever valve, normally closed:

The roller lever valve (Fig 5.6) is operated by pressing

on the lever, for example through the use of a switching

cam of a cylinder. The flow passes through from 1 to 2.

16

Fig 5.5 4/2-way directional control valve

Lifting and pushing cylinders pneumatic system:Seminar

After releasing the lever, the valve returns to its

initial position through the use of a return spring.

Connection 1 is shut.

In the Simulation Mode, the valve can be switched

manually by clicking on the component, thus not

requiring a cylinder to operate the valve

The flow pass from1 to 2.

Connection 1is shut.

5.2.4. 4/2-way roller lever valve, normally closed:

It has the same principle operation of (3/2-way roller

valve ), where The roller lever is operated by pressing

on the lever , The flow passes through from 1 to 4.

After releasing the lever, the valve returns to its

17

initial position through the use of a return spring

(Fig. 5.7).

5.2.5. One-way flow control valve:The one-way flow control valve (Fig. 5.8) is made up of a

throttle valve and a check valve. The check valve stops the

flow from passing in a certain direction. The flow then

passes though the throttle valve. The cross-section of the

throttle is adjustable via a regular screw. In the opposite

direction the flow can pass through the check

valve.Adjustable parameters

The 4/2 valve isactuate, and there is flow from 1to 4 and from 1 to 2.

5.3. Cylinders in use:5.3. Cylinders in use:

5.3.1. Single acting cylinder with return spring:

The piston of the single acting cylinder is extended to

its back position by the input of compressed air. When

the compressed air is switched off, a return spring

moves the piston back to its front position (Fig. 5.9).

Adjustable parameters:Max. stroke: 1 … 100 mm (50mm)Piston position: 0 … Max. stroke mm (50mm)Piston Area: 0.07 …. 80 qcm

(3.14 qcm)Piston Ring Area: 0.03 …. 65qcm

5.3.2. Double acting cylinder

The piston rod of a double acting cylinder is operated by

the reciprocal input of compressed air at the front and

back of the cylinder. The end position damping is

adjustable via two regular screws (Fig. 5.10). The piston

20

Lifting and pushing cylinders pneumatic system:Seminar

of the cylinder contains a permanent solenoid which can be

used to operate a proximity switch.

Adjustable parameters

Max. stroke: 1 ... 5000 mm (100 mm)

Piston position: 0 … Max. stroke mm (0 mm)

Piston Area: 0.25 … 810 qcm (3.14 qcm)Piston Ring Area: 0.1 … 750 qcm

(2.27 qcm)

Cushioning in double acting cylinderIf large masses are moved by a cylinder, cushioning is used

in the end positions. Before reaching the end position, a

cushioning piston interrupts the direct flow of air to the

outside. For the last part of the stroke the speed is

slowed to reduce impact on the cylinder.

5.4. Distance ruleThe distance rule (Fig. 5.11) is a device for attaching

switches at the cylinder. The labels at the distance rule

define links to the actual proximity switches or limit

switches in the electrical circuit

6. Pneumatic system software:

FluidSIM-P is a teaching tool for simulating pneumatics

basics and runs using Microsoft Windows ©. It can be used

in combination with the Festo Didactic GmbH & Co. KG

training hardware, but also independently. FluidSIM was

developed as a joint venture between the University of

Paderborn, Festo Didactic GmbH & Co. KG, and Art Systems

Software GmbH, Paderborn.

A major feature of FluidSIM is its close connection with

CAD (Computer Aided Design) functionality and simulation.

FluidSIM allows DIN-compliant drawing of electro-pneumatic

circuit diagrams and can perform realistic simulations of

the drawing based on physical models of the components.

Simply stated, this eliminates the gap between the drawing

of a circuit diagram and the simulation of the related

pneumatic system.

The CAD functionality of FluidSIM has been specially

tailored for fluidics. For example, while drawing

, the program will check whether or not certain connections

between components are permissible.

22

Lifting and pushing cylinders pneumatic system:Seminar

Another feature of FluidSIM results from its well thought-

out didactic concept: FluidSIM supports learning,

educating, and visualizing pneumatic knowledge. Pneumatic

components are explained with textual descriptions,

figures, and animations that illustrate underlying working

principles; exercises and educational films mediate

knowledge about both important circuits and the usage of

pneumatic components.

The following steps below illustrate how the mechanism of

lifting and pushing cylinder run by FluidSIM-P:

If the emergency valve switched handily, then the piston rod of the cylinder 3A retracted. (Note: This cylinder extends by its return spring).

When the cylinder 3A reaches its retracted end position,

the limit switch 1.1 is actuated and the piston of

cylinder 1A advances (note the actuating of limiting 1.1

actuated by the ensure of the piece dropping not by 3A).
