In the dynamic field of industrial automation, control technology and remote I/O products from Festo are the powerful foundations for connectivity, efficiency and unrivalled control. In our comprehensive product range, we focus on motion controllers, third-party PLCs and edge devices, emphasising the role of each component in improving the automation effectiveness of your system.
Discover seamless connectivity with the remote I/O system from Festo, for example digital inputs, digital outputs and I/O modules that allow you to seamlessly decentralise sensors and actuators. We value flexibility and thus support multiple fieldbus protocols, including PROFINET, EtherCAT®, Ethernet/IP, CC-LINK® and Modbus TCP, to ensure harmonious integration into your existing infrastructure, whether remotely, point-to-point or centralised. This compatibility also extends to third-party PLCs and edge devices and contributes to efficient data processing at the source.
Expand your control options by integrating our new generation of IO-Link® technology, which offers standardised digital communication between sensors and actuators. This simplifies device integration and facilitates real-time data exchange and diagnostics, enabling proactive maintenance strategies to improve the overall efficiency of your system remotely.
Festo motion controllers and third-party PLCs improve precision and flexibility, and serve as the neural network and powerhouse of your industrial automation. Support for industrial communication protocols such as PROFINET, EtherCAT®, Ethernet/IP, CC-LINK® and Modbus/TCP enables seamless communication, ensuring that your control system functions smoothly. The scalability and adaptability of the modular peripherals from Festo allows you to expand and modify your control systems to meet evolving operational requirements.
Edge device integration: Seamlessly integrate our controllers and edge devices with third-party PLCs for distributed computing to enable faster decisions at the source. This benefits your system by reducing latency and optimising the efficiency of data processing.
Operating devices and human-machine interface (HMI) solutions from Festo enable rational control and monitoring.
Increased interaction with touchscreens: experience intuitive control with touchscreen HMIs from Festo that provide an advanced human-machine interface.
