OBJECTIVE
Objective of the mini project is to Construct, set and adjust simple proportional
control circuits on Hydraulics using the circuit necessary components such as
Reservoir, Filter, Pump, Gauges, DCV, FCV etc.
INTRODUCTION
This is one of the interesting topic and this forms a part of learning system for
automation and communication. The technology package “Hydraulics” is designed to
provide an introduction to the fundamentals of hydraulic control technology. This
package comprises a basic level and an advanced level. It teaches the knowledge of
hydraulic control technology.
Rapid transverse and feed circuit mostly used where two different speeds for
operations are needed.
The basic level hydraulic exercises are designed to be carried out with manual
actuation. The hydraulic components have been designed to provide the following:
 Easy handling
 Secure mounting
 Environmentally-friendly coupling system
 Compact component
 Authentic measuring methods

WORKING
Operation of the circuit:
 The cylinder will extend rapidly up to a point, and also retract rapidly.
 When the rod touches the deceleration valve, the flow control valve is then
brought into operation.
 At this point, the cylinder rod slows down and goes on to extend fully. Upon
moving the directional control valve to its opposite position, the rod retracts at full
speed.
 Pump delivery normally passes through FCV. During fast approach, the Lever-
operated DCV is operated. This diverts pump delivery to the cap end of the
cylinder through valve. Full flow is thus available for the actuator to advance at
the rated speed.
 A few millimeters before the platen makes contact with the die, lever operated
valve is closed forcing the pump delivery to pass through FCV. The platen now
approaches the die at a controlled speed because the flow to cylinder is now
regulated.
 When valve 4/3 is operated in return condition the connections are allowed to
flow in opposite directions so it will retract as well.
Components in this circuit:

Reservoir:
 The reservoir is open (non-pressurised).
Filter:
 Filter is on the pump inlet. Normally, this type of filter is a coarse, wire
mesh type.
Pump:
 The pump is uni-directional, and we have some additional information.

The arrow indicates the direction of the rotation, the two parallel lines
tell us the pump is shaft driven, and the circle with the ‘M’ in the middle
tells us it is being driven by an electric motor.
Pressure Gauge:
 Immediately after the pump, there is a pressure gauge fitted to the circuit.
4/3 Directional Control Valve:
 This is a four port, three position directional control valve. We are also getting
some additional information from the symbol.
 The valve is lever operated.
 The valve is detent controlled-a spring loaded detent sits in indentations in the
shaft. When the shaft is moved, the detent must be moved against spring force,
until it can sit back down in a new position. This gives the operator ‘feel’ for the
position of the control valve.
Flow Control Valve:

 This introduces a venture or restriction into the circuit. In this circuit, it is only
brought into play when the rod of the cylinder physically touches the deceleration
valve, causing it to operate.
 The deceleration no longer allows oil through, so it must go through the flow
control valve. We now control the speed of extension of the rod.
Deceleration Valve:
 In its normal state, the valve allows oil through. If another device (in this
case, the cylinder rod) physically touches the plunger and wheel on the
valve, this changes the valve by closing it. In our circuit here, oil can no
longer get through the deceleration valve, and must pass through the flow
control valve to get to tank. Because of the venturi in this valve, we are now
controlling the flow, and thus the speed of the rod.
Cylinder:
 The cylinder is double acting, because there are two hydraulic lines
going to it.
 The cylinder is differential, because the surface areas on either side of the piston
are not equal. Also, you would need to displace more oil to extend the ram than to
retract the ram.
Pressure Relief Valve:
 The valve is an adjustable pressure relief valve.
 Adjustment is indicated by the addition of the arrow to the symbol.
APPLICATIONS

 Due to its function of two speed it may use in drilling machine where the fast
transfer is required for approaching towards the part and then drilling in slow
speed for the better surface finish.
 It may also use for punching operations where punch have to reach die quickly
and then cutting operations takes place in slow speed.
