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.
Thanks to this technology, the VTEP provides extremely sensitive pressure control, down to less than 1mbar – perfect for applications such as wafer polishing or patch clamping in life science.
In addition, Controlled Pneumatics from Festo uses high-precision piezo valves to reduce compressed air consumption by up to 50%. This level of control enables the VTEP to speed-up production while ensuring that manufactured goods are of a higher quality.
The VTEP is an example of how Festo industrial automation technology makes machines and systems faster and more precise, helping customers in the electronics and semiconductor industries, battery production, life sciences, textile manufacturing, and others to gain decisive competitive advantages.
