Festo introduces the CMMT MP family of multi-protocol servo drives. Every drive in this family is configurable as EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET, and Modbus TCP. Using this single-family multi-protocol strategy, machine builders supporting multiple communications protocols can reduce servo-drive inventories. A unified drive family improves engineering productivity through familiarity with a single platform, simplifies tech support, and gains a robust ...

Machine builders no longer need to choose between a stepper or servo drive, thanks to the CMMT-ST from Festo. This new extra low voltage servo drive is capable of open or closed loop positioning, which effectively bridges the gap between stepper and servo drives. This means the user can tailor the CMMT-ST to suit the needs of the application and reap the benefits of both control formats.

Festo launches MS-Basic, a family of pneumatic service units in polymer housings that offer attractively priced components covering most application needs.

Karsten Europe verzorgt de distributie van druiven uit Afrika en controleert de kwaliteit van dit kwetsbare product sinds kort volledig automatisch via een vision/AI-systeem van Gearbox. Naast geavanceerde hard- en software bevindt zich in het hart van deze machine ook de Simplified Motion Series van Festo waarmee producten die niet voldoen aan de ingestelde kwaliteitsstaandaarden beheerst naar een parallelbaan worden geduwd. Gearbox koos bewust voor ...
