Well, it can do anything that requires linear motion. We are using it for a intake lift(1 piston). Our wall stake mech( 3 pistons) doinker(1 piston) mogol clamp ( 1 piston) yhese are just some ideas. I would encourage you to look at reveals and notice what teams are doing.

If you need a picture of any of the mechs above reply which one.

Vex library is very good for sources-https://kb.vex.com/hc/en-us/sections/4404197392404-Pneumatics
I would encourage you to check other sources before going on the forum. Like @Joeboticswastaken said
