Pneumatics – Electrical operation
according to BIBB, exercise 1-16

Exercises (Trainee’s Manual)
Item No.: 99867

The contents and targets of this learning topic correspond to the specifications of the Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training (BIBB)* and offer practice-related training in the different training levels of pneumatics. With successful completion of the practical exercises, you acquire knowledge of control technology, electro-pneumatics as well as the design language for sequence control "GRAFCET".

Exercise books for trainers and trainees

The exercise books are tailored to the device sets. The described exercises and tasks provide basic information and methods. The setup is structured in a uniform manner and provides the step-by-step description for completion of the individual exercises.

Two versions

  • Exercises with solutions: more far-reaching trainer information and contents such as measured values, calculation results, etc.
  • Exercises: independent completion of calculations and measured value tables, etc.

Note: Exam kits of the apprenticeship programs of German Chambers of Commerce and Industry (GACC) in the US.

The following exercises are included:

  • 01 Pilot control with single-acting cylinder
  • 02 Pilot control with double-acting cylinder
  • 03 Holding element control with double-acting cylinder
  • 04 Basic circuit with AND operation
  • 05 Basic circuit with OR operation
  • 06 Basic circuit with electric load-holding
  • 07 Path-dependent control with double-acting cylinder
  • 08 Path-dependent control with two double-acting cylinders
  • 09 Time-dependent control, pickup-delayed
  • 10 Time-dependent control, release-delayed
  • 11 Pressure and path-dependent control
  • 12 Sequence control with two double-acting cylinders, intuitive
  • 13 Sequence control with two double-acting cylinders, step chain
  • 14 Sequence control with three double-acting cylinders, impulse-controlled
  • 15 Sequence control with three double-acting cylinders, spring-returned
  • 16 Pilot control with boundary condition

Learning content

With the help of logically structured, practice-related exercises, the trainee should:

  • Understand laws of physics applicable in pneumatics, such as pressure difference and compressibility
  • Get to know and observe legal regulations and safety provisions
  • Get to know and apply the most important symbols of pneumatics
  • Understand the functions of basic pneumatic circuits
  • Identify the behavior of pneumatic components in different operating situations
  • Determine characteristic values
