The invention discloses a pneumatic positioning system. Provided are mechanisms and processes for a pneumatic shaft positioning system (100). According to various examples, the pneumatic shaft positioning system includes a pyrotechnic valve (137) that is configured to control the flow of gas from a pressurized gas source (135) into a pressure chamber (109,111). The pressure chamber includes a first piston (113,115,117,119) that is slidably coupled to the pressure chamber. When gas from the pressurized gas source fills the pressure chamber, the piston is configured to slide through the pressure chamber and force a shaft (103) into a predetermined position.
