The world of bulk material handling seems easy at first glance: moving, filling, delivering. The art of dealing with a variety of different materials, however, lies in the details, such as the docking and undocking of containers at weighing stations. In the process, crosscontaminations

and the release of dusts can occur. AZO CleanDock prevents this

problem. Its latest generation can do even more: it “thinks” for itself. Directly attached to the dock, the integrated controller CEC of the modular electrical terminal CPX from Festo ensures additional process security and shortened commissioning times.

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.

Nowadays, cataract surgery is a routine procedure. But this is only possible because companies like BYTEC Medizintechnik develop devices that enable eye surgeons to carry out operations accurately, error-free and in accordance with their own personal requirements. Piezo, proportional and fast-switching valves from Festo, designed in the form of a control block, allow the necessary rapid incisions to be made.

The healthcare sector worldwide is facing ever greater challenges – challenges that could also be addressed by industrial automation. Festo’s LifeTech division offers forward-looking answers as well as innovative solutions for medical technology and laboratory automation. Festo supports systems and equipment manufacturers by combining top quality with maximum efficiency in components and custom-specific solutions.

With the innovative Multi-Carrier-System MCS, a joint development by Festo and Siemens, you are on the right track. The modular transport system can be integrated as appropriate into existing intralogistics and thus complement and in some cases replace classic transport solutions.
