PLC Sheet 7

1. In a system of a dual machining process, where the work pieces are drilled and
countersinked. The three cylinders A, B and C are required to perform the
sequences described as C+, C-, A+, A-, B+, B-. Each cylinder is controlled by
two limit switches: a-, a+, b-, b+, c- and c+. The program will not start unless all
cylinders are at their retracted position (a-, b-, c-). Sketch the ladder diagram that
could be used to operate the automatic process.

2. It is required to design a program to enable a three-cylinder, double solenoid-


controlled arrangement to give the sequence A+, A–, A+, A–, A+, A–, B+,C+,
B–, C–. The A+, A– sequence is repeated three times before B+,C+, B–, C–
occur.

3. Build a ladder program the performs the


following mixing process:
1- When the finished product tank comes
into position (indicated by the limit switch
LS) the solenoid valve SOL1 is opened.
2- When the level in the tank becomes at
LLS1 the solenoid valve SOL1 is closed
and solenoid valve SOL2 is opened.
3- When the level in the tank becomes at
LLS2 the solenoid valve SOL2 is closed
and the mixer motor M1 and the heater
start to work.
4- A temperature sensor (TempSensor)
provides the temperature of the mixture.
When the temperature of the mixture
becomes greater than a certain temperature
“Temp1”, A timer “T1” is operated which
is set to count 10 minutes.
5- When timer “T1” finishes the motor and
heater will stop and the solenoid valve
SOL3 will open to exit the mixture.
6- Finally, when the mixing tank is empty
(indicated by the limit switch LLS) the
solenoid valve SOL3 will close again.

4. Write a program to implement the process illustrated in the figure below. An


up-counter must be programmed as part of a batch-counting operation to sort
parts automatically for quality control. The counter is installed to divert 1 part
out of every 1000 for quality control or inspection purposes. The circuit
operates as follows: (Use the underlined words as names in your programs).
1- A start/stop pushbutton station is used to turn the conveyor motor on and
off.
2- A proximity sensor counts the parts as they pass by on the conveyor.
3- When a count of 1000 is reached, the counter's output activates the gate
solenoid, diverting the part to the inspection line.
4- The gate solenoid is energized for 2 s, which allows enough time for the part
to continue to the quality control line and then gate returns to its normal
position.
6- The counter and timer resets to 0 and continues to repeat the process.
7- A limit switch L1 is used to make sure that the part used for quality control
has reached the right position to be weighted. The quality control weights the
sample products using a balance device and if the weight are less than “Wlow”
or greater than “Whigh” then the motor will be stopped and “inspection
required” sign is turned on.
