Abstract

The paper shows the design, manufacturing and testing of a new type of closed-loop pneumatic positioning system. The design is comprised solely of on/off equipment, which ensures overall low cost. Exhaust flow control and thus speed control for both directions of movement is done by means of several groups of way valves. This ensures that the system can obtain different speeds. Maximum speed is obtained when all of the way valves are open and minimum speed is obtained by using only one way valve. The last version is used close to the desired position to ensure the low speed needed to obtain precision. System control is done by means of a microcontroller that stores and executes the working programs.
