Solutions Description
Control of single cylinders using electro pneumatics
Forward stroke: The circuit is closed when push button PB closes. A magnetic field is
produced in the coil Y. The armature in the coil opens the passage for the compressed air.
The compressed air flows from 1 to 2 of the 3/2 DCV to cylinder, which travels to the final
forward position.
Return stroke: When the push button PB is released, the circuit is interrupted. The magnetic
field at coil Y collapses, the 3/2 way valve switches back to its original position as shown
in Figure 1.27. The compressed air in the cylinder then exhausts through port 3 of the DCV
and the cylinder travel to the final rear position
