This document describes an exercise to design a pneumatic and electric circuit to advance a press stamp tool. The circuit must ensure the tool only advances if a push button is pressed and a protective guard is closed, as monitored by a proximity switch. If either condition is not met, the tool must immediately return. Schematics of the pneumatic and electric circuits designed in FluidSIM to meet these requirements are presented, along with sketches of the actual setup. Components of the circuit and their contributions to the purpose of ensuring safe operation are discussed.

Exercise/Activity No. 3

Direction: Design the pneumatic and electric circuit to implement the task described below.
Simulate the circuit in FluidSIM and perform the actual setup using the trainer.

A press stamp 1.0 is to advance only if a push button is actuated and a protective guard is closed. If one
of these conditions is not met, the press tool is to return immediately.

The position of the closed protective guard is monitored by a proximity switch B1. The press tool is
advanced or retracted by means of a spring return solenoid valve (Coil Y1).

purpose of the entire circuit.

Table D.1 Components


Components Quantity
5⁄2-way solenoid actuated spring
return valve 1 pc
Push button (General) 1 pc
Push button with detent 1 pc
Double Acting Cylinder (1.0) 1 pc
Air supply (compressor) 1 pc

Basically, this assembly is a series circuit. The push button with detent(B1) serves as the
switch for the protective guard, while the manually actuated push button (S1) is for the press stamp
(1.0) actuation. If B1 is pressed the protective guard is closed, consequently, if S1 is pressed the
cylinder will actuate. On the other hand, B1 is unpressed the connection is cut; therefore the current
won’t continue. Thus, this assembly satisfies the problem requirements.
