Partner to the food and beverage industry

Your objective: hygienically safe and efficient automation Our solution: partner throughout the entire production process Industrial food production must meet the highest standards of hygiene while also being productive. Do the components deliver what the manufacturer promised? Particularly in the food

zone and splash zone, which have aseptic requirements in some cases, this becomes apparent very quickly. As an experienced partner in the field of automation technology, Festo

Food safety made easy Standards and directives ensure that food can be enjoyed with confidence. Their implementation in the production process reduces risks for the manufacturer and the consumer from the outset. Festo can help you to optimally implement food safety with hygienic products and solutions for protecting the consumer and the manufacturer’s brand. On the right are two innovative features for safe and efficient production.

Self-adjusting end-position cushioning system PPS Ingenious, this self-adjusting pneumatic cushioning PPS: longitudinal slots allow the air to escape, permitting dynamic and gentle movement into the end position, even under changing loads. In addition, PPS requires no dirt-prone adjusting screw, so sources of infection are avoided.

Modular sealing system Seals and lubricants that comply with FDA regulations should be used for system components that come into contact with food. Seal types for normal cleaning or for intensive foam cleaning are also available. Unlubricated seals ensure reliable functioning even for machine components whose lubricating grease is washed out by frequent cleaning.

has the best possible competence and a thorough understanding of all the processes along the value added chains of system manufacturers and food producers.

We offer you a complete portfolio of products, systems and selected services for process automation and factory automation.

Added value: everything from a single source

Extensive know-how: use your production potential to the full by taking advantage of our additional services.

100% machine availability: Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) The highest possible production reliability is not achieved by mere chance: Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) provides the indicators so that you are always one step ahead. The timely processing of dough, vegetables, meat or milk is a must. Otherwise there is a risk of production stoppages and even a risk of losing the raw materials to be processed. With Total Productive Maintenance, you focus on ensuring reliability from the start, supported all the way by appropriate products from Festo. With Total Productive Maintenance, you avoid risks and dissatisfied customers.

Energy efficiency Energy efficiency in automation demands a sophisticated concept encompassing four areas: • Intelligent sizing • Energy-efficient products and solutions • Services • Training and consulting Festo’s perfectly coordinated concept takes into account all the essential points of the value added chain of our customers, from the initial design considerations and energy-efficient engineering systems up to the after-sales process.

Safety@Festo Reduce risk, think preventively: with safety-related automation technology from Festo, you can implement safety measures in compliance with the EC Machinery Directive. The EC Machinery Directive specifies that a risk analysis and assessment for machines be carried out. These are then used as a basis for deriving and defining safety objectives. For example, a collision or an uncontrolled restart after an emergency stop can be reliably prevented and the risk of liability minimised.

Solutions for applications with demanding requirements

Products for process automation Regulated linear drive DFPI With integrated displacement encoder, valve manifold, positioner and an extremely robust connection. Protection in IP65, IP67 and IP69k and high corrosion resistance due to the robust and compact housing. Quarter turn actuator DFPB Single-acting or double-acting? Right or left rotation? The quarter turn actuator DFPB can do both. For maximum economy and optimal adaptation to the process valve. Proportional media valve VZQA Quick to install. Easy to maintain. And a long service life even with abrasive media: as a 2/2-way valve, VZQA controls media flows of any type, without a drive and without a risk of clogging.

Angle seat valve VZXF The robust universal valve, perfect for all tasks involving the control of media flows, whether slightly contaminated or highly viscous.

Directly actuated solenoid valve VZWD Excellent for high-pressure and dosing applications with low flow rates, because there are no control bores: VZWD operates without differential pressure up to 90 bar, even in closed media circuits! Indirectly controlled solenoid valve VZWM Economical and ideally suited to controlling media. VZWM operates with a differential pressure of 0.5 to 10 bar.

Food zone Stainless steel round cylinder CRDSNU/-B Extremely clean due to a very smooth surface. Only from Festo: the self-adjusting end-position cushioning PPS and the modular sealing system. Faster, easier and more flexible in use!

Stainless steel round cylinder CRHD Optimised for exacting demands: corrosion resistant and in an easy-to-clean design. NSF-H1 grease, FDA conformity for lubrication and sealing in the basic version. Tubing/fitting combination PFAN/CRQS Resistant to all cleaning and disinfection agents. Even permits the transport of acids and alkalis. Tubing PFAN: including FDA approval for use in the food industry.

Valve terminals with customised designs Tailored to your requirements: from minor product modifications to completely new developments.

Service unit series MS Ensures extremely clean compressed air in quality classes 1.4.1 and 1.2.1 (DIN ISO 8573-1) for contact with dry and non-dry foods.

Splash zone Standard cylinder DSBF, Clean Design Increased corrosion protection and dimensions according to ISO 15552. FDA conformity for lubrication and sealing in the basic version. Optional: unlubricated seal with self-adjusting cushioning PPS. Also with suitable proximity sensors SMT-C1. Guided drive DGRF Always reliable for handling workpieces. Easy-to-clean design and long service life thanks to optional unlubricated seal. FDA conformity for lubrication and sealing. Clean Design cylinder CDC Unique amongst the compact cylinder class, according to ISO 21287 with easy-to-clean design. FDA conformity for lubrication and sealing. Electric cylinder ESBF A powerful unit that is also quick and precise. In a clean look with optional features such as protection class IP65, increased corrosion protection and NSF-H1 grease.

Tubing-connector combination PLN-NPQP Resistant to cleaning agents and with a high level of corrosion protection. Safe for use with food in accordance with the manufacturer’s declaration. Valve terminal/individual valves CDVI Clean and modular: proven IP66/67 valve technology for ease of cleaning, even in applications in the splash zone – without a control cabinet!
