Preface

Festo Didactic’s training system for automation and technology is geared towards various educational

backgrounds and vocational requirements. The training packages are therefore broken down as follows:

• Basic modules impart basic, interdisciplinary, technological knowledge.

• Technology modules address the important topics of open and closed-loop control technology.

• Function modules explain the fundamental functions of automated systems.

• Application modules enable training and further education that is aligned with real-life practice.

The technology modules deal with various technologies including pneumatics, electro-pneumatics,

programmable logic control systems, automation using a personal computer, hydraulics, electrohydraulics,

proportional hydraulics, sensor technology, electric drives and applications technology (handling).

VI © Festo Didactic GmbH & Co. KG 541088

The modular design of the training system makes it possible to focus on applications above and beyond

those covered in the individual modules, such as, for example, PLC actuation of pneumatic, hydraulic and

electric drives.

All training modules have the same structure:

• Hardware

• Teachware

• Software

• Seminars

The hardware is comprised of industrial components and systems that are specially designed for training

purposes.

The structure of the teachware corresponds to that of the training hardware. It includes:

• Textbooks (with exercises and examples)

• Workbooks (with practical exercises, supplementary instructions and solutions)

• Transparencies and videos (for dynamic instruction)

The working materials for TP101 consist of 19 exercises and a workbook. Each exercise has its own set of

ready-to-use worksheets. The solutions are included in the workbook, which also has the worksheets and a CD

ROM. The exercises can be purchased without the workbook and are used as consumables. They can thus be

easily made available to trainees. Data sheets for the hardware components are made available along with the

training module and on the CD ROM.

The teaching and learning media are available in several languages. They’re intended for use in classroom

instruction, but are also suitable for self-study.

Where software is concerned, computer training programs and programming software are made available

for programmable logic controllers.

A wide range of seminars covering the contents of the technology module round off the programme for

training and further education.

Introduction

This workbook is part of the training system for automation and technology from Festo Didactic GmbH & Co.

KG. The system provides a solid basis for practical training and further education. The TP100 technology

module only includes pneumatic control systems.

The TP101 basic level is suitable for basic training in the field of pneumatic control technology. It covers the

fundamentals of pneumatics as well as the function and use of pneumatic equipment. The equipment can be

used to set up simple pneumatic control systems.

The TP102 advanced level comprises vocational training in the field of pneumatic control technology. The

equipment can be used to set up extensive combinatory circuits with linking of the input and output signals

as well as control systems with stepper modules.

A permanent workstation equipped with a Festo Didactic profile plate is a prerequisite for setting up the

control systems. The profile plate has 14 parallel T-slots at 50 mm intervals. A portable compressor with

silencer (230 V, max. 8 bar = 800 kPa) can be used for compressed air supply.

Working pressure should not exceed 6 bar (600 kPa).

Ideal control sequence reliability can be achieved by operating the control system at a working pressure of 5

bar (500 kPa) without oil.

All the control systems for the 19 exercises are set up using the equipment set for the TP101 basic level. The

theoretical fundamentals for understanding this series of exercises are included in the textbook:

• Pneumatics, basic level

Data sheets for the individual components are also available (cylinders, valves, measuring instruments etc.).

Work instructions and safety precautions

General

• Trainees should only work with the control systems under the supervision of a trainer.

• Observe specifications included in the data sheets for the individual components and in particular all

safety instructions!

Mechanical

• Mount all the components securely onto the profile plate.

• Limit switches must not be actuated frontally.

• Danger of injury during troubleshooting!

Use a tool to actuate the limit switches, for example a screwdriver.

• Only reach into the set-up when it’s at a complete standstill.

Electrical

• Electrical connections must only be established and interrupted in the absence of voltage!

• Only use connector cables with safety plugs for electrical connections.

• Only use low-voltage (max. 24 V DC).

Pneumatics

• Do not exceed the maximum permissible pressure of 6 bar (600 kPa).

• Do not switch on the compressed air until all of the tubing connections have been completed and

secured.

• Do not disconnect tubing while under pressure.

• Danger of injury when switching compressed air on!

Cylinders may advance and retract automatically.

• Danger of accident due to tubing slipping off!

– Use shortest possible tubing connections.

– Wear safety glasses.

– In the event that tubing slips off:

Switch compressed air supply off immediately.

• Pneumatic circuit set-up:

Connect the components using plastic tubing with an outside diameter of 4 or 6 mm. Push the tubing

into the push-in connector as far as it will go.

• Switch compressed air supply off before dismantling the circuit.

• Dismantling the pneumatic circuit:

Press the blue release ring down, after which the tubing can be pulled out.

© Festo Didactic GmbH & Co. KG 541088 IX

The mounting boards for the components are equipped with mounting variant A, B or C:

Variant A, snap-in system

Lightweight components that are not load-bearing (e.g. directional control valves). Simply clip the

components into the slot on the profile plate. Release the component from the slot by actuating the blue

lever.

Variant B, bolt-on system

Components with medium load capacity (e.g. actuators). These are clamped onto the profile plate using

T-head bolts. The blue knurled nut is used for clamping and loosening.

Variant C, screw system

For components with high load capacity and components that are seldom removed from the profile plate (for

example on-off valve with filter regulator). These components are secured with socket head screws and

T-head bolts.

Observe specifications in the data sheets regarding the individual components.

A stopwatch is required in order to evaluate the control systems once they have been set up. The stopwatch is

used to:

• Adjust the one-way flow control valves so that the cylinder stroke times comply with the specified

values

• Adjust time delay valves

Parameters

• Use a double-acting cylinder.

• Pneumatically control the cylinder using a manually actuated valve.

Project assignment

1. Describe the mode of operation of a single-acting cylinder.

2. Describe the mode of operation of a normally closed 3/2-way valve.

3. Complete the pneumatic circuit diagram for the pressing tool.

4. Set up the control system.

5. Double-check the control system configuration.

6. Describe the mode of operation of the control system.

7. Create an equipment list.

Procedure

1. The cheeses are placed into the tool manually.

2. When the pushbutton is activated, the cylinder advances and presses the cover onto the tool.

3. The pushbutton is pressed and held until the pressing operation has been completed.

4. When the pushbutton is released, the cylinder is retracted and the tool can be accessed.

5. The cheese can be removed.

Safety note

Limit pressure at the service unit for this exercise to a maximum of3.5 bar (350 kPa). Immediately

deactivate compressed air supply if the tubing slips off.

Circuit symbol and schematic diagram of a single-acting cylinder

– Compare the circuit symbol shown above with the schematic diagram of the single-acting cylinder.

Determine whether or not the two representations coincide with each other.

The two representations coincide with each other.

– Describe the set-up and mode of operation of a single-acting cylinder.

The compressed air flows into the cylinder’s piston chamber. Pressure is built up in the chamber and

force is applied to the surface of the piston as a result. If this force exceeds static friction, the piston is

advanced. Pressure is not built up to full operating pressure until the piston is fully advanced.

When this pressure drops, the integrated return spring forces the piston back into its initial position.

Spring force is not great enough to move heavy loads attached to the piston rod. Hence single-acting

cylinders only perform work in a single direction.

– Match up each component with the corresponding number from the above drawing.

Calculate the piston force of a single-acting cylinder

Theoretical piston force is calculated using the following formula:

Fth = A ⋅ p

Fth = theoretical piston force (N)

A = effective piston surface (sq. metres)

= )(4

D2π⋅

p = working pressure (Pa)

D = cylinder diameter (m)

Piston force Feff is important in actual practice. Frictional resistance has to be taken into consideration when

calculating piston force. Under normal operating conditions (pressure range of 4 to 8 bar or 400 to 800 kPa),

it is assumed that friction forces (FR) amount to roughly 10% of the theoretical piston force.

The following applies to the effective piston force of single-acting cylinders:

Feff = A ⋅ p – (FR + FF)

Feff = effective piston force (N)

FR = friction force (approx. 10% of Fth ) (N)

FF = return spring force (N)

– Calculate the effective piston force for the advance stroke of the used cylinder with a working pressure

of 6 bar (600 kPa).

A = )(4

3.140.022⋅

= 0.000314

Feff = 0.9 ⋅ A ⋅ p – FF

Feff = 0.9 ⋅ (0.000314) ⋅ 600,000 – 13.5

Feff = 169.56 – 13.6 = 155.96 N

Note

The required data is included in the data sheet for the cylinder.

The piston diameter of the used cylinder is 20 mm and spring return force is 13.6 N.

Circuit symbol and schematic representation of a normally closed 3/2-way valve

– Describe the mode of operation of the 3/2-way valve.

A 3/2-way valve has 3 ports and 2 switching positions. It’s represented in the normal position.

Normally closed means that compressed air cannot flow through the valve. When the pushbutton is

actuated the valve is opened, thus allowing air to flow and the piston of a connected cylinder is

advanced.

Sequence description

– Set up the control system and describe its working sequence.

Initial position

Valve 1S1 is closed in its initial position. The piston rod of cylinder 1A1 is retracted.

Step 1-2

When the pushbutton on 3/2-way valve 1S1 is pressed, compressed air flows into the piston chamber of

cylinder 1A1 and the piston rod is advanced.

Step 2-3

When the pushbutton is released, valve 1S1 is exhausted and cylinder 1A1 returns to its initial position

due to force applied by the return spring.
