Hi all,
maybe my question is not related directly to the PLCs but I have control problem. I am controlling a pneumatic cyclinder through an air actuated valve. The air piloting the cyclinder valves is switched ON/OFF by a Festo valve controlled by DeviceNET from an AB PLC. My problem is that the response time of the cylinder is quite low and not constant. My suspicion is that the air hose from the Festo valve to the cyclinder valve is too long.
Would it be possible that the length & diameter of the hose affects the response time?
