    m

    2. CONTRACTIONAL DIAGRAM :-

    Fig. Meter-in hydraulic circuit

    3. PARTES OF THE CIRCUITS :-

    Following are parts of Meter-in hydraulic circuit

    1) Oil tank
    2) Filter
    3) Motor
    4) Pump
    5) Pressure relief valve
    6) Actuator
    7) Direction control valve
    8) Flow control valve
    9) Tank
    10) Houes

    4. WORKING :

    a) Meter-in circuit is a method by which a flow control valve is placed in a hydraulic circuit
    in such a manner that there is a restriction in the amount of fluid flowing to the actuator.
    b) If the flow control valve were not to be located, the extension and retraction of the
    actuator which in this case is a cylinder, would have proceeded at an unrestricted rate.
    c) The presence of the flow control valve enables restriction in the fluid flow to the cylinder
    and thereby slowing down its extension.
    d) In the event of the flow direction being reversed, the check valve ensures that the return
    flow bypasses the flow control valve.
    e) The inlet flow into the cylinder is controlled using a flow-control valve. In the return
    stroke, however, the fluid can bypass the needle valve and flow through the check valve
    and hence the return speed is not controlled.
    f) This implies that the extending speed of the cylinder is controlled whereas there tracing
    speed is not.

    5. APPLICATIONS:-

    a) Meter-in circuits are generally used when the load characteristics are constant and
    positive. If the load is erratic or negative, the actuator will have jerky motion.
    Hence, meter-in circuits are ideally applied on a surface grinder, milling machines,
    etc.
    b) Presses and Forming Equipment
    c) Injection Molding Machines
    d) Material Handling Equipment
    e) Agricultural Machinery
    f) Automotive Manufacturing
    g) Construction Equipment

    6. ADVANTAGES OF METER IN CIRCUIT

    a) The main advantage of the meter in circuit is that the cylinder undertakes one side
    pressure with a valve corresponding to the real load.
    b) The relatively small friction due to pressure on one side, decided by the load of the
    piston sealing ensures it’s long life.
    c) The uniform motion of the piston rod even at a very slow speed.
    d) Flow rate estimation is made based on the large piston area, which is a significant
    advantage when very small piston-rod speeds are to be achieved.

    7. DISADVANTAGES OF METER IN CIRCUIT

    a) The major disadvantage of the meter-in circuit lies in the fact that there is no
    pressure on the piston rod side of the cylinder, due to this the load actuated by the
    piston rod is not held firmly in position.
    b) This means that in the case of “Pulling” type loads if the load suddenly collapses,
    the piston rod shoots forwards causing the uncontrolled shift.
    c) Special counter balance measures are to be taken if the above circuit is to be used
    for such applications.
