Re: How to improve power in piston shooter

We use the Nitra AVS 3211-24d solenoids from Automation Direct.
http://www.automationdirect.com/adc/...)/AVS-3211-24D
These are 24v with a Cv of .78. We use these on 10" Bimba 1.5" bore cylinders and have been really happy with them.
Plus we used the product voucher from FIRST... Even if you do not use the voucher they are about 21.00 each.

Good luck

Aloha
