The way the pneumatic, electric and electronic components of your system are housed deserves attention. Because every industry, every location and every application places its own demands on control cabinets in terms of design, resistance, degree of protection, hygiene and safety. That's why the solutions created by Festo are exactly right for you since they are tailored to your application, including design and sizing, and are also function-tested and ready for installation. With a customised solution from Festo, you can be sure that your control cabinets and mounting plates are perfectly tailored to your needs and requirements. This means your system will be quick to install, tidy and easy to maintain. And you save yourself time and effort.
Our service ranges from finding out the requirements to complete installation. When delivered, the control cabinets and mounting plates have been function-tested and are ready for installation. Customised automation solutions are individually designed, engineered and built precisely according to your application and are suitable for your specific site conditions and industry requirements. We have a wealth of experience with such projects. And that allows you to focus on your core business.
With a ready-to-install system, you can start production operations more quickly and, above all, more reliably and thoroughly. This is because all pneumatic, electric and electronic components can be effortlessly integrated in our high quality control cabinets and mounting plates. Depending on the version, they are optimally protected in the stainless steel control cabinet housing. If required, we also install products from third-party suppliers.
