Re: Pneumatics

If all the pneumatic cylinders can be fired together, you can take the two outputs of each solenoid valve and put it in a T fitting/Y fitting. (http://www.andymark.com/product/am-2184.htm)

This would be similar to wiring a electronic circuit in parallel.

My team did this in 2011, so I'll try and find a picture.
