Application of Proportionair electric proportional valve in bread bag indexing cylinder


This figure shows the electro-proportional valve used to control the force on the bread bag indexing cylinder. QB1 maintains just the right amount of force, so the bags fall off the stack one at a time.
 
Force control on the cylinder is a good application for proportional air products. Our application engineers can easily ask the right questions to ensure that the appropriate traffic size meets the load needs of most applications. Since our products constantly sense the downstream pressure, they react very quickly to any change in load to release or increase the pressure (force) in the process.
 
If you need faster and more accurate control, the Proportion-Air QB2 can accept direct feedback from the load cell. This will allow us to directly control the forces in your process without additional PID adjustments, making it basically a "plug and play" application.
