Canadian company Festo, a leading manufacturer of pneumatic and electromechanical systems, components and controls for process and industrial automation, is soon to be highlighting its new Piezo proportional air valves, designed for better control than traditional solenoid valves in many applications.
Showcasing at an upcoming trade show, Festo will highlight the latest Piezo valve technology for robotic end-of-arm tooling and other applications where precise pneumatic control is required. Festo states that the valves are small, lightweight, precise, durable and fast, and are designed to save energy. They are also designed to work proportionally and to be wear-resistant.
