Chapter 8, Problem 1RQ
To determine
Identify if the component is normally open or normally closed when the component is to be used for the function of start.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
There are circumstances where it is desirable to have more than one start/stop push button when operating a motor.
When a component is used for the function of start then the component is generally open and is connected parallel to the existing start button. If either of the start button is pressed, the circuit will be completed and the coil will be energized.

- Using a double-acting cylinder a work piece is removed and tipped onto a conveyor belt. Following are the sequence of operations 1. The operation is to be started using a push button (use the label START PB). Include a stop push button (use the label STOP PB) to stop the process at any time. (Use Memory ON circuit) 2. An acknowledgement signal (S1- Limit switch) is required when the piston is fully extended, to ensure that the work piece has been tipped onto the belt. 3. The extension should be slower than the retraction (use flow control valve) 4. The return stroke should be automatic. a. Design the Electro- Hydraulic Circuit with proper labeling.

In the drilling process shown in Figure 1, there are three cylinders in which cylinders A and B are used to clamp the work piece and Drill cylinder is used to lower and raise the drill. The sequence of operation is as follows: activate the direction control valve to start the process, Cylinder A and Cylinder B clamps the workpiece and then activate the second directional control valve to drill cylinder lowers the drill and raises afterwards. Once the drill is raised, cylinder A and cylinder B retracts. sensors Drill-high Drill Drill-Low Part / Material Cylinder A Cylinder B A+ B+ sensors Figure 1: Drilling Process а) Design the Hydraulic Circuit with proper labeling.
