    Regd-No : 2021-MC-39

    OBJECTIVES:
    1. The implement the electropneumatic circuit for the given task. [CLO2]
    2. To perform effectively in a group [CLO8]

    APPARATUS:
    Compressor, Service unit, manifold, 5/2 Solenoid Valve, Inductive proximity sensors, double acting cylinders,
    Electrical push button module, electrical relay module.

    Pre-Lab Reading:
     Making an electrical diagram for an electro-pneumatic circuit.
     Displacement-step diagram
     Electro-pneumatics.
     Timer-ON and Timer-OFF delay relays.

    Pre-Lab Work:
    Question no 1: How does an electro-pneumatic system differ from a simple pneumatic one? Also draw the symbol
    of a 5/2 solenoid actuated, solenoid return valve.
    Ans: An electro-pneumatic system incorporates electrical components, such as sensors and solenoid valves,
    to control and enhance the functionality of a pneumatic system, offering greater precision and automation
    compared to a simple pneumatic system.

    Question no 2: How does adding electrical components to a pneumatic circuit help reduce overall circuit size?
    Ans: Adding electrical components to a pneumatic circuit enables the use of smaller, more efficient valves and
    controls, reducing overall circuit size.

    Question no 3: Why do many industrial electropneumatic devices use the +24V, 0V operational voltage standard?
    Ans: The +24V, 0V operational voltage standard is widely used in industrial electropneumatic devices for
    compatibility, safety, and ease of integration in control systems.

    Question no 4: What is the advantage of using relays in the electropneumatic circuits?


    Ans: Relays in electro-pneumatic circuits facilitate electrical isolation for enhanced safety and enable the control of
    high-power pneumatic devices using low-power electrical signals, improving system efficiency.

    Problem 7-1: Electropneumatic control of a paper cutting machine


    Design an Electro-Pneumatic system to cut paper sheets according to size. By pressing two pushbutton switches the
    cutting blade is advanced and the sheet of paper is cut. After releasing any one of pushbutton switch the cutting blade
    is returned to its start position. The cylinder should advance slowly and hold the extended position for 5 seconds.

    Task : Figure 7-1- paper cutting machine for the task 7-1

    1. Draw the electrical diagram for the problem.


    2. Draw the circuit diagram for the problem
    3. Designate the valves and indicate the numbering system for the connections (ports).
    4. Attach the electrical and pneumatic components to the trainer as explained by the instructor and
    describe what happens when you actuate the control valves.
