Labsheet 1 Pneumatic

This document provides an introduction to a lab on basic pneumatic circuits for automation. The lab objectives are to identify pneumatic components, distinguish single and double acting cylinders, and understand direct and indirect control of cylinders. The lab procedures demonstrate direct control of a single acting cylinder and indirect control of single and double acting cylinders using various directional control valves. Students are required to write a report, discuss the working principles and potential improvements, and provide a conclusion on the results and analysis.
