Cascade Method Quiz

What is the purpose of the Cascade Method?

• To divide the sequence into groups

• To control air pressure to the Group manifold lines

• To assign control valves and limit valves to each cylinder

• To incorporate a manually-operated START valve

• 4

What is the purpose of the limit valves in the Cascade Method?

• To detect the end of motion

• To control air pressure to the Group manifold lines

• To divide the sequence into groups

• To switch between different groups

What is the purpose of the Group Valves or Cascade Valves in the Cascade Method?

• To divide the sequence into groups

• To control air pressure to the Group manifold lines

• To assign control valves and limit valves to each cylinder

• To switch between different groups

How should the input of the limit valve at each stroke extremity be connected?

• To the control valve input corresponding to the next letter in the sequence

• To the output of the corresponding limit valve

• To the control valve input corresponding to the previous letter in the sequence

• To the Group manifold line

What is the purpose of the manually-operated START valve in the Cascade Method?

• To detect the end of motion

• To control air pressure to the Group manifold lines

• To initiate the sequence

• To switch between different groups

How should cylinders requiring repeated motions be handled in the Cascade Method?

• By using shuttle valves for the OR logic function

• By connecting the output of the corresponding limit valve to the control valve input corresponding to the next letter in the sequence

• By assigning a separate control valve for each repeated motion

• By connecting the input of the limit valve to its own Group manifold
