Industrial automation specialist Festo has introduced the VYKA range of media separated solenoid valves offering high precision control of virtually any fluid or gas. Just 7mm in width and with an orifice size of 1.2mm, the VYKA range has a class leading pressure-to-orifice size ratio and offers a compact solution to a wide variety of dosing and continuous flow applications.

The electric standard gripper EHPS from Festo is the electric version of the pneumatic standard gripper DHPS. The EHPS can be used wherever pneumatics is not permissible. The concept of the electric standard gripper is based on simplicity and low complexity – all the electronics are integrated in the gripper, which means that an external motor controller is not required.
