Lab report (3)
Introduction:
• A digital control system is a control system that processes signals coming from

sensors by means of a computer. The analogue signal (continuous in value and time)

must be sampled and take discrete values at given time intervals. This process is known

as signal digitalization.

• Digital Control is now commonly used in many areas of Industrial low-cost


automation.

They are also used extensively in production, assembly, pharmaceutical, chemical, and

packaging systems. There is a significant change in controls systems.

Objective:
In this experiment we will learn how to build a simple Pneumatic system to control the

movement of pneumatic double acting cylinder.

Test Rig:
The test rig contains:

1) Compressor

2) Pressure Control Valve

3) Connection Valve

4) 5/2 Valve With 2 solenoid Valve

5) Double Acting Cylinder

6) Switches

7) Push Button

Procedure:
1) First, we connect the Air supply from the compressor to the Pressure Control Valve.

2) We connect the Pressure Control Valve to Connection Valve.

3) We make the connections of the 5/2 Valve as showed above.

4) We connect the 2 solenoid Valve with the Push Buttons.

5) Check the connections of the circuit then turn on the compressor.


Results:
The Piston start to move as shown , for one cycle.

Conclusions:
o It is necessary to check the connections before starting to avoid any accident.

o In this experiment, we can control the speed of the piston by controlling the pressure of

the air by the Pressure Control Valve.
