2017/11 – Subject to change – Digital simplicity: World first Festo Motion Terminal VTEM
ECO drive
Reduce costs by operating your actuator with the minimum pressure
necessary for the load. This eliminates the rise in pressure in the drive
chamber at the end of the movement, allowing energy savings of up
to 70%. With a single DSBC32-100 with a 2 kg load, this is a saving of
approx. €100 a year. (Required accessory: cylinder limit switch)
Selectable pressure level
Save energy by setting several pressure levels. Simply set the
pressure for the selected movements to a level of your choice.
Additionally, you can control the speed by adjusting the flow
control valve setting.
Leakage diagnostics
Fewer system downtimes and faster fault detection due to preventive
maintenance. Separate diagnostic cycles and defined threshold values
enable you to detect and localise individual leaks in the application
operated by the Festo Motion Terminal.
Supply and exhaust air flow control
Do away with separate flow control valves on the actuator and set
tamper-proof travel speeds quickly and conveniently at the touch of
a button. There is also an option to implement new motion sequences
such as dynamic flow control adjustment.
Presetting of travel time
For quick and easy commissioning and stable operation, all you
have to do is enter the travel time for the advancing and retracting
motions. The exhaust air flow control function adapts itself to the
travel time and then maintains it. The system automatically adjusts
the values in the case of influences such as increased friction due
to wear. (Required accessory: cylinder limit switch)
