Q2. The following circuit is taken from an assembly plant. The actuator moves a robotic arm at 220 psi. There is a bypass type needle valve to control the flow and operates with bias spring resistance of 130 psi. The robotic arm can be moved at a speed of 9.63 ft/min. Answer the following [Total marks: 15) i. ii. iii. The readings of gage 1, gage 2 and gage 3 (6 pts.) The flowrate at flowmeter (a), (b), and (c) (5pts.) Calculate the amount of flow returning to the tank (from rod-end) during the extension stroke (4 pts.) M Gage (Gage Gage 3 5 gpm Jo (b) दा 550 psi Piston Area: 4 in Rod-speed: 9.63 ft/min Rod-end area: 2.5 in?
