Extend your technical and methodical knowledge of modern industrial pneumatics. This course addresses specific topics relating to maintenance, the ability to design and understand the functional relationships of complex pneumatic, electro-pneumatic systems as well as machinery.
This course is a continuation of using both pneumatics and electro-pneumatics as an application-orientated package.
Target group: Design engineers, plant engineers, maintenance staff and instructors.
The content includes:
• Combination of pneumatic power section and electrical control section (review).
• Pneumatic and Electrical Symbology (review) ISO1219, IEC61346.
• Power section devices and actuators. Specific applications: bellows, fluidic muscle, rodless and rotary drives, grippers and pulse ejectors.
• Valves and basic logic functions (binary control, two-hand control).
• Sequence control:
- Cascade Control and sequence stepper.
- Co-ordinated Electrical sequence and logic controllers.
• Vacuum technology.
• Emergency controls (soft start).
• Rotary Index tables.
• Strip Feed units.
• Safety regulations and valid industrial standards.
• Practical exercise and typical industrial circuits.
Outcomes
After completing this course, the participant will be able to:
• Design, assemble and test complex pneumatic and electro-pneumatic control systems.
• Identify and describe the design, features and operation of specific application power section devices and valves.
• Describe the fundamentals of vacuum generation and applications.
• Understand the function of safety and emergency controls in pneumatic and electro-pneumatic systems.
• Describe the function and applications of low pressure pneumatics.
Requirements (Suggested):
The “Pneumatics level 1” (PN111) course.
