Marcin asked me to start designing openSource solenoid_valves for 30 gallon per min at 3000 psi pressure.
Started research on the matter. Electrical controlled valves are necessary in order to remote-control machines from the GVCS. However, the solenoid valves for the power level of interest cost about $300 per double-acting channel. There is thus A strong case for open source solenoid valves, which we could produce for probably 1/5 of that cost.
