12 A machine slide is moved by means of hydraulic cylinder. The motion of the cylinder is as follows:
a) Initially it moves through a distance of 250 mm against a load of 15000 N in about 5 seconds.
b) It is followed by a working stroke of 100 mm against an effective load of 35000 N. The feed rate during this part of the stroke is required to be between 0.5 to 1.0 m/min.
c) The return stroke is to be as fast as possible.
A meter out circuit is to be used. Draw a circuit which will fulfil these requirements.
Select different components you have used in the circuit from the given data. Note: Data sheet for question no. 12.
