Highly scalable valve manifold offers value, performance
The Festo MPA-L valve manifold offers a mix of value and performance. It is scalable down to a single valve slice, so directional valves can be adapted to any application. This saves costs and reduces size.
Festo introduces MS9 compressed air preparation unit
Festo is now offering the latest addition to its MS-series air preparation units, the MS9 size, a unit with a 1-in. port capable of 600% higher flow rate than the smaller units in the series. The MS-series received Germany’s highest design award in 2010, and the product extension MS-9 is now available in the U.S.
Valve manifold has world’s smallest footprint
Festo has announced the development of the high density/small footprint VTOC pilot gas valve manifold. This is the highest density manifold—with up to 48 valves—for its footprint in the world, because the manifold features two 3/2-way valves on each valve position and valve widths of only 0.393 in.
