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.

The Motion Terminal VTEM uses the world’s first valve that has its functions controlled by apps. The intelligent technology consisting of pneumatics, sensors, electronics and software enables many motion and monitoring tasks. With the VTEM, you get your system ready for Industry 4.0.

Your formula for success: the perfect combination of motion, pressure and flow rate.

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.

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.

Get the weld exactly where it should be with the DFAW and proximity switch SDBT-BSW. The DFAW is used mainly in the automotive industry for clamping sheet metal parts during the welding process.

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.

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.

Boost the productivity of your systems! Festo offers reliable solutions and products that precisely help you achieve this. We meet your requirements for highly efficient intralogistics – worldwide.

As part of our business continuity management, we invest in the continuous safeguarding of our business processes and, in doing so, rely on established standards.

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.
