ASi-EVA family automation specialist Festo (UK) has released its newest generation of AS-i modules. Called the ASi-EVA family, the devices adopt a new strategy for the connection of individual valves to an AS-interface. Festo has developed a new generation of ASi-EVA devices, designing the family specifically to optimise and simplify decentralised control and connectivity. The ASi-EVA modules progress the Festo commitment to simple “plug and work” automation technology solutions. Each module is provided with pre-assembled cabling and valve plugs to facilitate fast and easy installation, permitting the entire Festo valve range – from miniature to maxi valves – to be flexibly and inexpensively connected to an AS Interface system via a wide range of connection options.
