The compact and low-cost spindle axes ELGT from Festo with integrated double guide are perfect for combining into 2D and 3D cantilever systems. Developed for applications in the electronics industry, in desktop applications and in battery manufacturing, they are open to servo motors from Festo as well as many other providers, especially those based in Asia.

The essence of any mechanical switching device is an accurate response. That is exactly why it is designed to respond with precision. And why it can be installed, without backlash, in just a few steps. The manually and mechanically actuated valves from the VHEF and VMEF series from Festo follow precisely these mechanical principles.

Festo has upgraded its PROFINET bus interfaces for the CPX automation platform. The new generation has four new key features based on the new PROFINET controllers and software, with the “S2 system redundancy” being the most important one.
