TOPIC
SEQUENTIAL CONTROL OF 2 DOUBLE ACTING CYLINDER WITHOUT OVERLAPPING SIGNALS
OBJECTIVES
At the end of the session the students will be able to :
I.
II.
III.
Apply safety rules in the laboratory
Design pneumatic circuit using a sequential control of two double acting cylinders
without overlapping signals and with overlapping signals
Differentiate between sequential control without overlapping signals and with
overlapping signals
SEQUENTIAL CONTROL
Many pneumatic systems and machines are designed to perform a range task in a certain
order sequence. This usually involves the use of two or more cylinders working together to
complete the task. The movement of these cylinders are coordinated as per the required
sequence. This sequencing is carried out by actuation of appropriate final control valves like
directional control valves. The position of the cylinders is sensed by sensors like limit
switches, roller or cam operated valves.
EQUIPMENT
I.
Double acting cylinders
II.
5/2 ways directional control valve, impulse valve
III.
One way flow control valve
IV.
3/2 directional control valve with push button
IV.
3/2 directional control valve with roller
SAFETY
Build your designs and verify your operation. Make sure that the pressure is 4 bars and is
connected correctly. Double check your connections before switching the compressor on.

VI.
The workpiece coming in on the right roller conveyor should be elevated and sent in
a new direction.
After actuating the start button the piston of cylinder A raises the workpiece to the
height of the second roller conveyor with its elevating platform.
Cylinder A remains in this position until cylinder B has pushed the workpiece from
the elevating platform onto the upper roller conveyor.
When cylinder A has securely pushed all the workpiece onto the upper roller
conveyor, cylinder A moves down again.
Only when cylinder A has retracted into its lower end position does cylinder B also
retract.
The working speed of both cylinders is infinitely adjustable in both directions.
