Pure Pneumatic control design: Cascade method
Functions of A, B, C ?
air supply: initially to GRP 1 (manifold 1), when pilot line 1 is active.
line 1: activated by c2 (transition from GRP 2 GRP 1)
line 2: activated by b2
- Connect air supply of each cylinders valve, and supply + and – ports of each cylinder
