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.

It was inspired by nature. Nature has come up with a solution with

which very different objects of prey can be grasped using just a single

principle. This principle can now also be used on your factory

floor and for your applications.

Increasing our customers’ productivity is a clear objective of Festo as

a company. You told us where your pinch points are. As a solution

to meet your requirements, we have developed the space-optimised

twin cylinder DGTZ.

When space is tight, when saving every gram counts and when only

the most essential features are required, the ADN-...C is the perfect

fit. Its sturdy design to ISO and more than 350 variants in a wide

range of sizes, lengths and cushioning options make it an extremely

attractive option for many applications.

ISO standards-based DSNU or the smaller and even slimmer DSNU-S?

The round cylinder DSNU is always a solid choice when it comes

to performance and compact dimensions. Its universal variants make

it ideal in applications where low friction, chemical resistance or

corrosion resistance are required.

With this issue of Highlights 2020, you are holding a kind of compass

in your hand. It will show you where the path with Festo might take

you this year.

You will see the first results in our core product range. Numerous new

components like the mini slide DGST or the compact cylinder ADN-S

are useful additions to the portfolio.

A central theme for us is connectivity at all possible levels:

mechanical, electrical and software.

From 100 to zero in the shortest possible time thanks to the operating

mode of this holding brake, which enables braking procedures

especially for safety applications. As soon as a signal is received,

the through piston rod comes to a halt, despite the load and full

speed.

The first proximity switch with automatic switching point setting

makes commissioning easier than ever before. With its detection

range of 20 mm, it is easy and reliable to install, especially in appli

cations

where mounting is difficult. SDBT-MSX is ideal for all standard

applications, especially in factory automation and the electronics

industry/small parts handling.
