Configuration and optimisation

Pneumatic drives

Use the Festo sizing software to configure and size your entire pneumatic control sequence

Use the engineering software to calculate the air consumption of cylinders

No oversizing

• Size your pneumatic drives correctly as cylinders that are too large use compressed air unnecessarily

Standard cylinder DSNU

Reduce weight

• Particularly lightweight cylinder due to polymer end cap

Compact cylinder ADNP

Reduce leaks

• Cylinders with round piston rods prevent leaks
• The combination of drive and guide guarantees ideal operating characteristics and is easy on the seals

Fluidic Muscle DMSP/MASLinear actuators DGO and DGC

Reduce friction

Actuators with linear guide: guided drive DGRF, guided drive DFM, mini slide DGSL, mini slide DGSC, linear module HMP, mini guided drive DFC

Reduce the pressure level

• Check whether your system needs the pressure you have preset, or whether this level is needed only at selected points

DPA pressure booster

Electric drives

Use the PositioningDrives sizing software to find the right electromechanical solution with just a few key data.

Switch off power

• Automatic-locking spindles for vertical strokes can sometimes eliminate the need for power-intensive holding brakes

Electric positioning axis DMES

Reduce energy consumption

• De-energise drives when at rest
• Program energy-optimised travel profiles to prevent high acceleration

Electromechanical drives

Reduce weight

• Reduce moving masses as much as possible

Electromechanical drives: electric toothed belt axis EGC-TB, electric spindle axis EGC-BS, electric toothed belt axis ELGR

Reduce friction

• Program energy-optimised travel profiles

Electromechanical drives: electric slide EGSP, electric mini slide EGSL

Recover energy

• Recover braking energy
