Sensitizing customers f for energy efficiency
"We raise our customers' awareness of energy efficiency," explains Franco Cresto. OSAI draws from the entire range of components for pneumatic automation, with Cartesian systems for handling workpieces and even Festo's more recent use of electric drives. "Thanks to these solutions, which harmoniously integrate pneumatic actuators and electric drives, we at OSAI are able to offer innovative solutions in terms of energy efficiency for 80% of our machines," explains Cresto.
Cresto continues: "Energy efficiency requires a holistic approach because it affects the entire process. All parameters must be right to ensure the energy efficiency of a machine or plant from the planning to the operating phase." This starts with the software for creating energy-efficient products. From the front end to the valves and compressed air preparation, everything is designed and implemented with the aim of maximizing potential savings. In other words, products and solutions complement each other to achieve the desired effect, and the contribution is not only technological, but also includes training and consulting.
