Area of business:
Processing, manufacture and
trading of precious metals,
sensors, biomaterials, medical,
dental and pharmaceutical
products, quartz glass and special
light sources
Centrepiece of the automation system:
Valve
terminal CPX/MPA with integrated remote I/Os in
a control cabinet.
Flexibly controlled
The centrepiece of the automation system
is the valve terminal CPX/MPA with
integrated remote I/Os in a control
cabinet. Thanks to the flexible control
approach, it is possible to connect all the
position in­dicators and sensors to the bus-
controlled valve terminal. Pneumatic
actuators and process valves are
controlled via the flanged-on valve
terminal MPA.
Single sourcing has therefore helped to
cut costs and increase efficiency in the
procurement process. The standardised
valve terminal cabinets in particular
allow plant manufacturers, consultants
and, last but not least, Heraeus itself to
concentrate fully on its core business.
Festo designed, built and delivered the
ready-to-install valve terminal cabinets
with explosion protection for zone 2
directly to the machines. Fully assembled
and tested, complete solutions eased
the burden on technical personnel,
kept design costs low, simplified the
procurement process and even reduced
process costs.
“Fit and forget is the goal
for our customers.”
