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.

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.

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.

The successor to the established CPV, MPA-L/S and VTUG ranges impresses with its high flow rate. And with the communication system AP-I and AP-A, it is the perfect platform for digitised production!

Replacement of directive 94/9/EC with directive 2014/34/EU

In tire production, every second and every kilowatt counts. Discover how you can become faster and more efficient in all areas with solutions from Festo, including through clever retrofitting.

Welding requires a high level of precision and quality, something our drive

solutions for welding guns are specifically designed for. You decide which is best for you – the X gun or the C gun, servo-pneumatic or electric.
