"Seamless Automation combines our broad-based solution portfolio with end-to-end connectivity and an intuitive digital experience for our customers," explains Frank Notz, Chief Sales Officer at Festo. Visitors can immerse themselves in the world of seamless automation at the Festo stand in Hall 13 at the Hannover Messe.

The production of tyres and the production of wafers seem to have absolutely nothing to do with each other. In terms of automation technology, however, they use the same technology: Controlled Pneumatics. That is why Festo has further developed compressed air technology to make pneumatics sustainable, resource-saving and energy-efficient.

Flexible, robust and offering high performance – the angle seat valve VZXA from Festo controls media flows quickly and reliably up to 230 °C. Its carefully thought-out product design and patented interface enable valve bodies and actuators to be freely combined, with a hot-swap function for quickly exchanging actuator or other spare parts.
