Question
(a) A hydraulic press with the area ratio 1:25 is filled with oil of density 800 kg/m³. A
block of 25 kg is placed on the large piston. Determine the mass that must be placed on
the small piston to raise the block by 10 cm.
(b) Describe the construction and working of 'regenerative circuit' with a neat sketch.
(c) With the aid of a diagram, explain how relay and push-button may be used as a memory
element in an electro-hydraulic circuit.
(d) By using a diagram, explain the working of reed switch and how it can be used to
control the motion of pneumatic cylinder.
(e) In an automatic material processing machine, the following sequence of operations
involving two pneumatic cylinders (A and B) is required:
A+ B+B-A-
Design a pneumatic circuit to achieve the above sequence of operations by using a
double acting cylinder, sequence valve and manually operated directional control valve
(DCV).
