Compressed Air and Cooling Water Supply

for Robots in the Automotive Industry

If reliably supplying complete welding lines or individual welding robots with compressed air and cooling water is important to you, then it’s time to invest in the future – in an efficient solution that is tailored to your application, quick and easy to integrate into your environment, and can also meet the demands of Industry 4.0. Both in body welding and the assembly process.

Reliable, Efficient, and Perfectly Tailored to Your Requirements

Customizable and ready-to-install hall and robot installation plates (HIP/RIP) are well worth it, because Festo provides you with everything you need worldwide from a single source – from configuration, installation, and testing to complete documentation. And all as a single package with just one part number. This means you save time and money right from when you place the order, and especially during the entire project development process. This will help you gain a competitive edge.


Hall Installation Plates (HIP)

HIPs are used to control and monitor the compressed air and cooling water supply for entire welding cells. Since they have to be accessible from the outside, they are often integrated into the safety barrier. You can view examples of hall installation plates in the photo gallery.



Robot Installation Plates (RIP)

Robot installation plates (RIP) are usually installed inside the welding cell next to or on top of the base of the robot. They control and monitor the flow of compressed air and cooling water to the robot. You can view examples of robot installation plates in the photo gallery.
