Abstract:

In In modern world, Automation is developed in many fields. This Automation is achieved by developments in Pneumatics, Hydraulics, Electrical and Electronics. Apart from these fields, Pneumatics finds wide applications as they are the “LOW COST AUTOMATION”. In order to understand the technical knowhow of the pneumatic logic circuits in a simple way, this paper describe the model system of pneumatic controlled logic circuit using compressed air is the control medium instead of electrical current. In industrial automation electrical and electronic devices control fluid power circuits. Relay logic control, Programmable logic controller, computer based control are the methods commonly used. But Air logic is one of the methods to control pneumatic system. The air logic circuit is similar to the normal function of relay, timers, pressure switches and counters. This paper will be very useful for the mechatronics students in understanding the automation of logical circuit in pneumatics.
