ME 543 Lab #4

Task #1
Create a pneumatic circuit diagram for the double acting cylinder
which is used to press together glued components upon operation
of a pushbutton, the clamping cylinder slowly advances. Once the
fully extended position is reached, the cylinder is to remain for a
time of t1=6 seconds and then immediately retract to the initial
position.
A new start cycle is only possible after the cylinder has fully
retracted and after a delay of t2= 5 seconds. During this delay, the
finished part is removed and replaced with new parts for gluing.
The retracted speed is to be rapid, but adjustable.
Task #2
A working pressure of p=5 bar is used to operate a garbage compactor
pneumatically.
Firstly, a pre-compactor, which is used to smash glass and other materials, will
operate in advance then a main compactor will complete the process.
When you press a push button, the pre-compactor advances, then the main one.
The two compactors will return simultaneously after the process ends.
In the case the main compactor does not reach the forward end position, the
retraction of both cylinders is initiated by a pressure sequence valve.

Note : The sequence is : 1A+, 2A+, 1A-

2A-
