III. Advantages/Disadvantages of each option:
Option 1
Advantages:
1. Simplicity: Simple structure with fewer components, making it easier to maintain.
2. Stability: Operates steadily at one defined speed, suitable for applications that do not
change.
3. Cost-Effective: Generally, has a lower initial investment due to fewer components and
less complex technology.
Disadvantages:
1. Lack of Flexibility: Cannot adjust operating speed according to needs, not suitable for
applications requiring speed changes.
2. Lower Efficiency in Some Situations: If speed adjustment is needed, it may lead to
energy wastage or reduced efficiency.
3. Difficulty in Optimizing Applications: For processes requiring different speeds,
reconfiguration or system change may be necessary.
Option 2
Advantages:
1. Flexibility: Allows for adjustment of multiple speed levels to meet various application
requirements.
2. Performance Optimization: Can adjust to achieve the best performance for each
situation, saving energy.
3. Better Control: Easily change speed and pressure according to specific job demands.
Disadvantages:
1. More Complex: More complex structure with additional components, requiring more
frequent maintenance.
2. Higher Cost: Higher initial investment due to needing more parts and adjustment
technology.
3. Requires More Knowledge and Skills: Operating and maintaining the system may
require more technical knowledge, demanding more experienced operators.
To meet the operational functions of the machine: fast descent, slow descent (pressing),
and quick retraction, the team has decided to choose Option 2.
IV. Operating Principle:
1. Starting the System: The operator activates Electric Motor (3), which begins to
drive Hydraulic Pump (4). The pump draws hydraulic fluid from Oil Tank (1).
2. Pressurizing the Hydraulic Fluid: As the electric motor runs, the hydraulic pump
pressurizes the hydraulic fluid, creating a flow of high-pressure oil that is directed
towards 4/3 Directional Control Valve (8).
3. Directional Control Valve Activation: The operator selects the desired operation
mode using 4/3 Directional Control Valve (8). This valve determines the direction of
the hydraulic fluid flow to Hydraulic Cylinder (10).
4. Flow Control Adjustment:
If the operator wants a fast descent, Switchable Flow Control Valve (12) is
set to allow maximum flow to the hydraulic cylinder.
For a slow descent (pressing), the flow control valve is adjusted to restrict the
hydraulic fluid flow, allowing for careful control and precision in moving the
load downwards.
For quick retraction, the valve settings will redirect the fluid flow back into
Oil Tank (1), allowing the cylinder to retract efficiently.
5. Hydraulic Cylinder Operation:
Based on the flow rate determined by Switchable Flow Control Valve (12),
Hydraulic Cylinder (10) begins to either extend or retract:
Fast Descent: The hydraulic cylinder extends quickly, lowering the
attached load rapidly.
Slow Descent (Pressing): The cylinder extends slowly, providing
careful control for pressing applications.
Quick Retraction: The cylinder retracts swiftly, pulling the load back
up effectively.
6. Monitoring and Safety:
During operation, Pressure Gauge (5) displays the current system pressure.
Safety Valve (13) monitors pressure levels to prevent overpressure situations,
ensuring safe operation.
7. Completing the Cycle:
Once the desired movement is achieved (either the load is lowered or
retracted), the operator can stop Electric Motor (3).
The system returns to a neutral state, with the hydraulic fluid either stored in
the cylinder or flowing back into Oil Tank (1).
