3. Practical activity
The following industrail application will consolidate what you have learned so far and
train you to use GRAFCET in a practical setting. The exercises allow you to apply all the
GRAFCET techniques you have learned in the previous sections.

Do the following when you want to perform an exercise:

1. Open the correct template in Grafcet-Studio (see the instructions given in the
practical exercise). You will then be able to access the operands/symbols needed for
creating the system. You can find the template in the "My Files" folder in the
"GRAFCET Workbook" folder.
2. To test the GRAFCET chart, load the virtual system of the same name into PLC Lab
from the "GRAFCET Workbook" node (see tree view). Select the following as the
"target": "S7AG (WinSPS-S7)"
3. Click on the "RUN" button first to start the virtual system so that the input signals are
set correctly.
4. Then switch on Watch mode in Grafcet-Studio.

Practical activity 2 : Time-controlled clock sequence

A clock sequence with a total of five steps is to be programmed dependent on time. The
start is performed via a button (pulse) and continues until the button is pressed again. The
steps must always be completed in full. An enclosing step provides itself as a solution
here. A lamp is assigned to each pulse.

Practical activity 3 : Filling station

A GRAFCET for the filling station shown in is to be designed. Pressing the Start
button S1 commences the filling of the tank via pump M1 and the valve Y1 up to a filling
level of 95 litres. Once this level is reached, the medium is to be stirred with the help
of M3. This operation consists of 10 seconds of agitation followed by a pause of 5
seconds. The operation is to be repeated three times. Afterwards, the tank is completely
drained via pump M2 and the valve Y2. The agitator switches itself on and remains on
during the draining operation until the medium has reached a level of less than 5 litres. It
is important to make sure that the pump does not pump against a closed valve when it is
switched on. The switch-on delay for the pump vs. the corresponding valve should be
two seconds. The current filling level of the tank is contained in the
operand FillingLevel as an integral value.

Practical activity 4 : Operating mode switch

Manual and Automatic modes are to be programmed for a rotary index table. Each of the
operating modes are shown by a lamp H1 for Manual mode and H2 for Automatic mode.
You make the selection with the switch S1. Once S1 is pressed, Automatic is selected and
the operand has the value True.

The GRAFCET is to be structured. Partial GRAFCET charts are to be formed as a part of


this: G1 for Manual mode and G2 for Automatic mode.

If the Emergency Stop switch S2 has been pressed, then the operand S2 has the
value False. In this case, no more steps can be active in G1 and G2. If S2 is unlocked (i.e.
no longer pressed), you first need to select Manual mode before you can switch back to
Automatic mode.

Practical activity 5 : Rotary index table for a filter testing machine

The filters produced by a manufacturer are to be evaluated in terms of various test


methods. A maximum of three test methods are to be considered; Each method
corresponds to a checking station. The pick-up and removal station are also to be
included. The rotary table is equipped with a total of five stations (and a reserve station).
Pressing the Start button (S1Start) transports the filter from the magazine to the empty
receiving station. The rotary index table continues the cycle to one station further as soon
as all the stations have delivered a completion message and the unloading station is
empty. Sensor S4 has the value True when the table is in a correct position and the test or
unloading can be carried out. Unloading takes place manually. Each station has a sensor,
which has the value True when a filter is present in the station and therefore, the test is to
be carried out (S9-S14).

If the Stop button (S2) is pressed, no new filters are inserted into the device.

Note: Each station has its own time-dependent checking action as a substitute for
simulating the testing program. For the simulation, the completion message from a
checking station can be assumed as being present after two seconds. The three checking
stations and the feeding of the filters from the magazine (A1) are to be programmed as
enclosing steps and are called up within the partial sequences of a parallel branch from
the main GRAFCET chart.

Practical activity 6 : Filling raw materials into drum and mixing them

 Process description:

The GRAFCET for the following arrangement is to be created:

A drum can be opened at the top so that it can be filled with raw materials. To do this, the
drum must be at filling position S5. After closing the drum (S4 = True), it begins to spin
for 20 seconds to mix the raw materials. After these 20 seconds, unloading position S6 is
approached and the drum opened (S3 = True) so that the mixture empties out. The drum
then moves to the filling position S5 at a throttled spin speed. If the Stop button S2 is
pressed, all actions are stopped immediately. A restart is only possible if the drum is
emptied manually and then moved to the starting position.

M1RotateContainer Motor for rotating the drum
M2RequestItems Motor for feeding in raw materials
A1OpenContainer Actuator for opening the flap on the drum, if True, flap is opened.
M1SpinSpeed Default integral value for the spin speed of the drum in r/min

The detailed procedure takes the following form:

1. Actuation of the Start button


2. Opening of the drum
3. Request for raw materials for four seconds
4. Closing of the drum
5. Rotation of the drum at a spin speed of 20 r/min
6. After 20 seconds, the drum stops at the unloading position
7. Opening of the drum for four seconds
8. Closing of the drum
9. Rotation of the drum to the filling position at a spin speed of 3 r/min

A new cycle can now start. Since the Stop button is meant to abort the automatic process,
it must be organised in a group with its own initial step, which, on Stop, is to be
deactivated to an empty situation via forcing.

Practical activity 9 : Cleaning Bath

A GRAFCET is to be developed for a cleaning bath for metal parts.

 Process description:
1. Switching on of the control by pressing the "Con. On" button (S1). The H1 lamp
signals that the control is switched on.
2. Starting of the process by pressing the Start button (S3).
3. A1 extends and pushes a workpiece onto the A2 holder.
4. The cleaning bath heating is switched on. The workpiece can be immersed in the bath
once the bath has reached a temperature of 70°C. The current temperature is
delivered by the sensor S8 between 20-75°C.
5. Once the bath has reached the desired temperature, A2 lowers the workpiece into the
bath for 8 seconds. The heating remains switched on for as long as the workpiece is
immersed in the bath.
6. Once the time has expired, A2 lifts the item out of the bath. A new cycle can now be
started. For this, A1 pushes the next workpiece onto the holder of A2. The already
cleaned workpiece is fed to the next processing step over a ramp.
7. Switching the control off should stop a cycle immediately. A restart is only possible
once the control has been switched on.

Practical activity 10 : Tomograph

The GRAFCET for a tomograph is to be developed.

 Process description:

1. The position at which the examination is to take place in the tube is set with a slide
control.
2. After switching on the control (S1) and pressing "Start" (S4),the lounger moves to
this selected position.
3. When the position is reached, the radiation source rotates from the left to right and
back again.
4. The lounger then moves out of the tube into the basic position.

When the lounger moves, lamp H2 should show this. If the radiation source is
rotating, H3 signals this. H3 is designed as a blinking lamp. The position of the lounger is
delivered by a sensor in a range from 1 to 600. The basic position is reached here at a
value of <= 5. The reaching of the examination position is to take place by way of a
comparison >= (greater than or equal to), since the lounger moves relatively quickly. The
Emergency Stop (S3) and Control Off buttons (S2) deliver the value False when pressed.
