Big trend: function integration on valve terminals

Function integration means increased productivity and reduced installation

Electrical components: up to 512 digital/analogue I/O, temperature and pressure sensors
Pneumatics: up to 128 valves
Proportional pneumatics: up to eight pressure regulators on the bus
Servopneumatics: positioning and soft stop for up to eight axes
Motion control: electrical drives, synchronous/asynchronous/2.5 D interpolation
Safety engineering: press valves, special valves and start-up pressurisation

Festo's valve terminals are an effective way to reduce costs

Reduce costs effectively

"Valve terminals are an effective way to reduce your total cost of ownership in practice – thanks to electric and pneumatic function integration. Now, in addition to this, motion control is also integrated. The result is reduced system costs by up to 20%, and in some cases by as much as 60%"

Examples:

20% reduction in system costs, thanks to a single order and the large reduction in the number of single parts
60% less time spent on assembly, leading to a shorter time to market

Shorter commissioning times thanks to Festo Plug & Work ©: Easier parameterisation due to uniform interfaces and minimised sources of error via complete integration.

Enhanced machine performance means up to ...

30% shorter cycle times thanks to Smart Soft Stop
50% reduction in air consumption and
30% shorter cycle times thanks to subordinate, decentralised installation concepts

All in all, reduced total cost of ownership (TCO)
