Abstract: The main aim of our project is to design and fabrication of pneumatic two step speed control of a cylinder. Initially the flow from the FRL retracts the cylinder when the push button is in its spring offset position. When it is pushed the flow pilots actuate. The air passes through the flow control and shuttle valve. Then the cylinder extends with high speed as the valve allows more air to enter the cylinder. When the piston reaches the position it operates the cam push button and pilot air flow through this and actuate 5/2 pilot operated valve and reaches flow control valve which permits less air. Then the flow through enters the shuttle valve to cylinder and allows the cylinder to extend at relatively low speed. At the end of extension stroke deactivating push button retracts the cylinder. Thus the speed of cylinder is controlled and project can be achieved.
