Hydrogen, the emerging clean energy source, will play a key role in the long-term sustainability of energy-intensive manufacturing, processing, and transportation industries. Regardless of the source of hydrogen, whether natural gas or H2O, automation is essential for efficient hydrogen production, storage, and transportation.

Festo created a new solution for high throughput dry-room electrode assembly of EV batteries.

Wherever inert gases need to be precisely controlled, the mass flow controller VEFC from Festo is the right choice. Thanks to piezo technology, it is compact and flexible, and offers an excellent price/performance ratio. It is especially suitable for use in electronics manufacturing, food production, and anywhere in machine building where shielding gas is required.

Festo introduces a line of pre-configured, assembled, and tested compressed air preparation units that not only makes specification and ordering faster and easier, but also ensures clean air in food and beverage production. Right out of the box, the new units meet the Safe Quality Food (SQF) guidelines of final filtration stage 0.01 micron (µm) and a particulate removal efficiency of 99.999% at the point of food and beverage contact.
