Generating energy sustainably is one of the great challenges of our time - and green hydrogen is a building block of the solution. Hydrogen will play a key role in the future energy landscape and in the decarbonization of energy-intensive industries. Festo offers comprehensive automation solutions along the entire hydrogen value chain - on show at Hydrogen Expo in Hamburg from October 23 to 24, 2024 (booth 1I20, hall A1).

Industrial automation specialist Festo is making it easier for manufacturers to harness the power of digital automation and artificial intelligence (AI) to optimise process efficiency. Festo AX is a suite of AI-based software solutions enabling customers to increase efficiency in their production processes.

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 has created a seamless product environment for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) designing servo-motion solutions for electronic light assembly, packaging, automated laboratory devices, pharma tablet handling, cannabis processing, conveying, and more.

Controlled Pneumatics is the rapidly evolving compressed air technology from Festo that is opening new applications for pneumatics. The technology delivers more precision and control than ever, while having the potential to dramatically reduce energy use. This is clearly demonstrated in the VTEP: the first proportional valve terminal on the market, offering high precision, fast response times, and dynamic control.
