Pneumatic drive technologies offer decisive advantages for sustainable automation. They are energy-efficient, durable, cost-effective and ideal for simple movement sequences. Their targeted use improves carbon footprints, reduces the use of materials and increases system availability. In combination with electric drives, particularly sustainable solutions are created for a wide range of requirements in mechanical and plant engineering.
Be it for material and resource efficiency, energy savings or circular economy – our features products, engineering tools and services show just how successful sustainable automation already is.
