Festo offers you a diverse range of handling systems for a multitude of applications, from standard solutions for common applications through

to customised solutions. In addition, our ready-to-install systems, software and support services mean less work for you. We support you from the design stage through to installation and commissioning.

Festo offers you a diverse range of handling systems for a multitude of applications. With the online tool "Handling Guide Online", you can configure and order your standard handling system in record time.

Screwdriving, dispensing, testing, soldering, gripping, opening and closing containers and much more: the compact handling system forms the basis for a wide variety of desktop applications. This well-matched system kit comprising kinematics, controller and software saves you money and reduces your time to market – from development to programming and commissioning.

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.

Wherever every millimetre counts: the compact gantry EXCM.

It combines high functionality with an extremely compact design

for maximised working space coverage.

Laboratories in the chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and food technology industries are increasingly relying on automation for sample preparation. The Modular Sample Processor, a development from the global laboratory equipment manufacturer Anton Paar, is one such solution.

Compact and economic automation solutions for SMT, THT process and final assembly.

Protecting electronics with a compact handling system

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)

Test platform for mobile devices with the mini planar surface gantry EXCM

Configure and order your standard handling system in record time with the new online tool "Handling Guide Online".

This white paper contains information on:

• Functional differences between the various systems
• Key factors and selection aids for selecting a handling system
• Cartesian handling systems in an overview

Reliable, dynamic and always the correct force: this precise and powerful handling and assembly device combines the gripping and feeding of press-fit plug connectors with an integrated assembly process. Two-way monitoring – visually and as a function of force and displacement – ensures that all the pins have been press-fitted with the appropriate force and are located correctly.

Having our specialists commission your axis systems brings a variety of advantages – it is fast, reliable and ensures that everything matches together perfectly. This guarantees the harmonious interaction between your axis systems and your production line
