Design, construction and automation of a electro-pneumatic press

Osrednji cilj diplomske naloge je bil izdelati realen model elektropnevmatske stiskalnice. Naloga zajema načrtovanje, izdelavo in avtomatizacijo naprave. Za izvajanje delovnih gibov smo uporabili tri pnevmatske valje, ki so krmiljeni s tremi elektromagnetnimi ventili. Lego pnevmatskih valjev nadzorujemo z magnetnimi stikali. Za delovanje celotnega procesa smo uporabili programabilni logični krmilnik, ki zajema podatke in jih po vnaprej določenem algoritmu obdela ter izvaja proces. Celotna naprava je sestavljena iz več podsistemov in zajema področja mehanike, pnevmatike in elektrike.The main goal of our thesis was to develop a model of electro-pneumatic press. The task involves designing, building, and automating the device. Three pneumatic cylinders are controlled by three electromagnetic switches. To run the entire process, we used a programmable logic controller, which takes the data, processes it according to a predefined algorithm and executes the process. The whole device in made up of several subsystems, covering mechanical, pneumatic and electrical areas
