Drive solutions for welding guns

Servo-pneumatic or electric – you decide which is best for you

As you well know, welding guns need to be precise and reliable. It is not just the reproducibility of the spot welds that plays a key role in the quality and efficiency of the welding process; flexibility and speed are just as important – even under the most challenging conditions. This has led to requirements that Festo has optimally incorporated in its drive solutions for welding guns. The intelligent solutions control welding guns extremely precisely. You decide which is best for you – the X gun or the C gun, servo-pneumatic or electric.

Servo-pneumatics versus electrics

Servo-pneumatics is all about a controlled pneumatic positioning technology that guarantees dynamic response, power and flexibility. Our specialists have now transferred these advantages into an electric variant to meet the requirements for greater energy efficiency in new production sites with a low-pressure network. Savings in energy costs and carbon emissions are therefore the top priority. Make the most of both technologies, even – depending on the application requirements – by mixing them within a welding cell.
