In the infinite expanse of the universe there is a galaxy that awaits you. Even if it seems out of bounds, it is still within reach. It is a galaxy full of innovations, where digitalisation, artificial intelligence, bionics and other future concepts show what automation can do. If you are an innovative company looking to get the most from your automation, then you will find it right there. To reach this level, you do not necessarily need a spaceship. With our innovations, you reduce complexity, increase your profitability, reduce downtime and create more efficient, stable and sustainable processes. Off to new worlds.
Use digitalisation to significantly improve your overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) or even your sustainability. To help you achieve this, our portfolio includes software, digitised pneumatics, engineering tools and Industry 4.0 technology.
With the Festo Automation Experience (Festo AX), we also offer artificial intelligence that creates real added value for you. Your system is analysed in real time, allowing valuable predictions to be made. For example, you will be informed straightaway, without any delay, when an anomaly occurs. This will increase your productivity, reduce your energy costs, avoid quality losses, optimise your shop floor and create opportunities for completely new business models.
Piezo technology is a game changer for electrically actuated pneumatic valves. Piezo valves are small, lightweight, highly precise, very durable, incredibly fast and above all they save energy. They are especially suitable for the semiconductor industry. Their accuracy and the speed with which they reach the specified setpoint values are impressive – piezo technology really offers the best type of proportional control. It ensures high-precision dispensing of even the smallest volumes of air or gas. But they are also very suitable for precisely controlling the pressure and vacuum with which wafers are pressed onto the polishing table. Furthermore, this technology allows you to dispense very precisely for gluing applications in small parts assembly. Using piezo technology together with the Motion Terminal VTEM is a particularly profitable combination. Motion Apps allow you to control individual valves and easily standardise applications. The result is significant savings and increased productivity. And piezo valves reduce the energy requirement for pilot control by up to 70%.
