Re: Flow control?
There are a few things to try to get speed out of a cylinder.
#1 Get a solenoid with the highest CV you can find.
#2 Keep your tubing runs as short as possible (even go as far as plumbing the solenoid right to the cylinder.
#3 Remove the exhaust port on the cylinder and use spring return.
#4 Use low side storage tanks as close to the solenoid as possible.
#5 Replace a large diameter cylinder with several smaller diameter cylinders each with their own solenoid.
#6 use a lever to speed up the action, kind of like gearing up a motor.
Anything to get that air going as fast as possible into that cylinder.
