The cloud is everywhere. We save data on the cloud and access it on our phones and computers from anywhere at our convenience. The same applies to seamless connectivity in industrial automation from your components to the cloud. This is why Festo considers your complete automation architecture from the mechanical system to the actuators, motors and servo drives, as well as the motion controllers, right up to modern industrial cloud solutions.

The quarter turn actuator DFPD-C from Festo is well equipped for the harsh conditions in the chemical industry. It is suitable for actuating butterfly valves, globe valves and ball valves in process plants in the chemical and petrochemical industry and can also be used with a positioner for control applications.

The Festo Motion Terminal VTEM combines digitalisation and pneumatics. Quickly activated Motion Apps are revolutionising pneumatics by increasing flexibility and energy efficiency, and accelerating production processes. This also has benefits for handling technology, because the automation platform VTEM opens the door for positioning using pneumatics.

If you want to be fit for Industry 4.0, you need a qualification plan. The newly developed Festo Didactic Curriculum 4.0 combines a wide variety of learning paths aimed at specific job roles in an industrial context, such as mechatronics engineers. With the Curriculum 4.0 trainees and professionals can keep up with the rapid developments in Industry 4.0 and help shape these exciting times - throughout life.
