Ejecting a Workpiece
ACTIVITY 3
Objectives:
A.
1. Familiarize the function and operation of double solenoid valves
2. Familiarize the operation of a timer relay (on-delay/off-delay)
3. Perform latching
A. Cementing Press
Problem:

The cylinder is extended using a

push button, however, an on-delay
is incorporated so that the
operation starts only 10 seconds
after the pushbutton is pressed.

The retract position is activated 5

seconds after a detent switch is
pressed.
Objectives:
B.
1. Familiarize the function and operation of double solenoid valves
2. Familiarize the operation of an electro-pneumatic counter
3. Perform latching
 B. Automatic Washing System
Problem:
Metal components are to be cleaned in an acid
bath. These components are placed in a basket
which is hung from a hook on a double acting
cylinder.

A single actuation of a pushbutton causes the

basket to be lowered into and pulled out of the acid
bath.

The sequence stops automatically after 5 cycles.
