I need to ramp up the psi on a pnuematic cylinder until the force on the piston, measured by a load cell, is met. Then I need the air pressure to stay at that psi and maybe compensate a little bit for drift.
This is what I was thinking, ramp function on micrologix 1400 using analog to control an electronic pressure regulator.
I need to keep it as low cost as possible and the speed, repition rate, accuracy all have wide margins.
Is this doable?
Is the programming going to be very difficult? I can program PLCs but have never done any type of variable control with feedback
Have any suggestions?
Thank you.
