Re: Magnetic Reed Switches and cylinder boom positions????

If you want to position a pneumatic cylinder in more than one position, you will need to use more than one solenoid in your system. The magnetic switches aren't useful to sense a cylinder midway if it is traveling quickly. Linked below is a white paper on how to make a multi-positioning pneumatic cylinder.
