Sažetak
Pneumatic driving systems are mainly used in industrial applications where the moving parts are usually fixed by the mechanical stops. For flexible and precise positioning tasks of pneumatic drives relatively expensive proportional valves have been implemented. In order to develop cheaper pneumatic servo systems, the employment of low-cost on/off solenoid valves have received considerable attention. But, the traditional technologies used in on/off solenoid valves manifest different problems caused by the electric and thermal effects, inertial forces of their mechanical parts and friction phenomenon. However, it seems that innovative technology used in fast switching solenoid valves gives better possibilities in control of pneumatic systems due to their negligible internal friction and modular architecture. In this paper a control method based on pulse-width-modulation algorithm for position control of a pneumatic actuator with high-speed solenoid valve is considered and experimentally verified.
