Travel bans, limits on contact with others, quarantine rules – in times of a pandemic, service technicians and fitters are often unable to travel around the world to customers to commission their machines and plants on site. That is why customers can now conveniently book remote commissioning for axis systems at Festo. This makes commissioning online very quick and easy.

The decentralised IO system CPX-AP-I allows compact and lightweight I/O modules as well as the decentralised valve terminals from Festo to be integrated into major host systems in a flexible and scalable way. Another advantage of CPX-AP-I is its seamless connectivity from the field level right through to the cloud, providing access to features such as predictive maintenance. This makes digitalisation incredibly easy.
