AutoID at Festo is all about having one channel for all information.Being able to retrieve data using the Product Key, Logistic Code and LabelDesigner makes your life as a purchaser, maintenance engineer or production manager easier. You will find the pointer to the digital twin of your components right there on the product or packaging. We call this digital simplicity, and it saves time and supplies important information in a flash.

Automation components in primary aluminium plants are continuously exposed to extreme heat, ultra-fine alumina dust and strong magnetic fields. This means that the requirements for crust breakers, feeder cylinders as well as pilot valves are very high. They need to be able to withstand these aggressive ambient conditions.

You want to use compressed air more efficiently and reduce CO2
emissions, but don't know the weak points in the compressed air
system? Then you should start with the TÜV-certified compressed
air energy efficiency audit according to ISO 11011 and save up to
60% on operating costs!

Respond to failures? Or predict them? A predictive maintenance
strategy will make your welding guns more productive. Because
welding guns need to work with precision, reliability and efficiency
to be economical. Change is worth it. As an add-on to the Festo drive
solutions for welding guns, the Festo Welding Gun Maintenance
System monitors all welding guns in the factory. The software solution
helps you to detect process anomalies in good time, optimise
maintenance and save energy – thanks to Industry 4.0.

Reducing the CO2 footprint is a key factor that will enable manufacturing
companies to remain competitive by ensuring their production
processes are sustainable. Production plants with pneumatic applications
frequently offer a huge savings potential when it comes to
compressed air consumption and the associated energy costs. Our
experts in pneumatics will take a close look at all parts of the plant
to find out whether your applications are already as energy-efficient
as possible or whether they are using too much compressed air.

The conditions in many manufacturing areas, such as the splash
zone in food production plants, place a lot of stress on service unit
components. Cleaning agents and water jets attack the surfaces,
screws and pressure gauges. With this stainless steel protection
box, Festo offers a simple and low-cost solution to securely protect
the compressed air preparation components.

Reliability is the name of the game with the DFM. This impressive guided drive has the best price/performance ratio in the market and offers optimum guide characteristics, sturdiness and flexibility. It is reliable, adaptable and resilient – even with high torques.

Install and save:
In applications where chips or dust need to be removed or parts need to be dried and transported, the 2x 3/2-way solenoid valve VSVA with pulse function is a great asset. Not only does it reduce energy consumption, it also saves compressed air during pauses. When used as an air blast valve, the blast pulse is stronger than with a continuous air flow. This pays off within a very short time.

This circuit diagram service for complete EPLAN projects is unique to Festo. Schematic Solution for EPLAN projects documents your configured solutions in next to no time! Simply enter your order code and receive the complete plan in just a few minutes – error-free and trouble-free. No more tedious searching for, downloading and piecing together individual components.

The new vacuum generator is ideal for highly dynamic, decentralised handling applications. The weight-optimised and compact design make the OVEL the perfect solution for integration directly on the front unit. This reduces the evacuation time and increases the operating cycles.

Take a quantum leap in automation technology. By using suitable
components from Festo in an intelligent way, you can reduce the energy
consumption of your systems and thus specifically lower your production’s
carbon emissions.

Festo knows your processes and the problems you face, for this reason has developed a sophisticated range of products and services based on this knowledge, optimally designed to meet the needs of our customers.

All in all, excellent know-how for maximum productivity through tailor-made value creation.
