Festo is now making it even easier for its users: the functions of the classic valve terminals CPV, MPA-L/S and VTUG are now available under the umbrella of the convertible valve terminal VTUX. In addition, the AP-I and AP-A communication system creates the ideal platform for digitalized production. This brings flexibility and openness - true to the motto "Open Architecture".

 For the gas supply of bioreactors and fermenters or for dosing protective gases - the VEMD mass flow controller from Festo delivers maximum control dynamics and costs significantly less than comparable solutions for the control of air, oxygen and inert gases.

When the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, protective equipment was in short supply. Nursing staff didn’t have enough face masks, protective goggles, full-body protective suits, or hygienic disposable rubber gloves. To overcome at least the shortage of  gloves, AFA Technologies offers packaging machines and automated systems for quality control. The Malaysian company relies on pneumatic valve technology from Festo for its machines.
