One of the applications of Proportionair proportional valve in semiconductor industry ----- cylinder speed control

HydraulicIt is the traditional method of cylinder speed control application.

Use Proportion-Air FSeries mass flow controllers do not require traditionalHydraulic controlIt's up. Use only compressed air to control the speed of the cylinder, use proportional air FASeries closed loop mass flow control valves are controlled. The product is very responsive and you can adjust the speed at any time.

The proportional air closure system valve is very accurate. The mass flow of air leaving the cylinder (to the atmosphere) is determined by the electronic mass flow control valve, mass flow monitor, traditional four-way/A combination of a five-way solenoid valve and sometimes an additional electronic pressure regulator is controlled. The solenoid valve is used to change the direction of the cylinder between extending and retracting. But regardless of whether the cylinder is extended or retracted, the speed of extension or retraction is always controlled by the electronic flow control package by metering the exhaust of the cylinder.

Because the electronic set point command to the cylinder can be changed, the speed can be changed on the fly. Soft-start and soft-stop can be programmedPLCThis can really reduce the wear of the cylinder.
