Sinclair Community College and Festo Corporation have launched a new partnership that will allow students to earn college credits toward a Sinclair associate degree while gaining critical advanced manufacturing skills on the job.

Festo launches MS-Basic, a family of pneumatic service units in polymer housings that offer attractively priced components covering most application needs.

Festo features at AACC 2023 Cartesian gantry systems for handling samples and a flexible, high accuracy liquid dispensing system, that enables manufacturers to reduce engineering and procurement overhead while speeding time to market.

Festo Didactic provides SkillsUSA Championship Competition participants (Mechatronics Section) with advanced training technology at the 2023 National Leadership and Skills Conference June 19-23, Georgia World Congress Center and State Farm Arena, Atlanta. 

Festo today laid the first stone of its new plant with three construction phases, which will gradually generate 1,500 new jobs. Construction of the plant, which will be ready in 2025, will require an investment of $100 million dollars.
