Basics of pneumatic elements

Circuit 1

Create a pneumtatic circuit in FluidSIM with the following properties:

  • Cylinder 1 extends when button 1 is pressed

  • When cylinder 1 is in the end position, cylinder 2 extends

  • When cylinder 2 is in the end position, both cylinders retract again

Do only use valves to create the program logic.

Circuit 2

Create a circuit in FluidSIM with the following properties:

  • Cylinder 1 extends when pushbutton 1 is pressed

  • Cylinder 1 retracts when pushbutton 2 is pressed

  • When cylinder 1 is in the end position, cylinder 2 extends

  • As soon as cylinder 1 is no longer in the end position, cylinder 2 retracts again

  • Cylinder 3 moves out when cylinder 1 and 2 are in the end position

  • Cylinder 3 retracts when cylinders 1 and 2 are in the home position

Do only use valves to create the program logic.
