Many of Festo’s products are inherently free of copper. For example guides are made essentially of polymer. In order to be able to offer customers who manufacture lithium-ion batteries as many components as possible from our product range, we have optimised products specifically for use in this field – and we have replaced parts that contain copper with copper-free elements.

In 5 minutes to Festo valve! The valve series at a glance:

From individual valves to automation platforms.

Our multi-part static system presentation comprehensively shows

• how Festo products can be connected to and integrated in various fieldbus and Ethernet protocols around the world

• how the communication hierarchies are related to one another

• and which networking and installation concepts Festo supports: for fluid and motion control for factory and process automation (FA/PA)

Making automation systems more productive – not a problem with our star products, every single one shines it its own field: cylinders, drives, valves, sensors, accessories, tubing and fittings and ser vice units.They are cost-effective, work together perfectly and are guaranteed to drive your machinery’s productivity.

Products from the core product range from Festo make it easy for you to increase the productivity of your textile machines. Whether the need is for spinning, stretch texturing, weaving, round knitting, flat knitting or textile finishing – Festo offers the right product for your application.

Individual valves or valve terminals – which is the most suitable option for actuating pneumatically automated process valves? What are the technological and economic differences between the two? We will use a cost comparison to compare and contrast the two options. And what are the differences in terms of commissioning? Which diagnostic options are available with valve terminals for reducing unscheduled downtime? These are the questions that will be examined in this article.

Maximum function integration, many electrical connection options,

multi-pin plug, Festo I-Port, fi eldbus and a comprehensive diagnostics concept: that is the MPA. And it is extremely compact and has the latest valve technology.

• New: MPA-C – hygienic
• MPA-L – highly modular
• MPA-S – communicative and with many functions

The VTSA is ideal for maximum pneumatic and electrical function integration. Especially innovative is the mix of 5 valve sizes on one valve terminal, without the need for an adapter plate up to size 2! The VTSA is fully compliant with ISO 15407-2 and ISO 5599-2 – yet is easy to integrate. It can be used as a complete installation solution for large-scale machine concepts. And is also available as a fl ow-optimised version VTSA-F.

Digitalisation is at the forefront of everybody’s mind.

Our App World already offers some digital products, such as the apps

for the Festo Motion Terminal.

However, we should not forget that digital solutions are always based

on powerful hardware components. And when it comes to components

too, Festo has many exciting innovations in 2018.

Our mission: sustainable economical management and long-term value enhancement

for our customers, our company, our employees and our partners.
