Whether you are developing high-performance pick-and-place systems or complex motion sequences, Festo ensures perfect interaction between all components – from hardware to software, from the control cabinet to the cloud. Complemented by innovative software solutions for engineering, configuration and commissioning. Our modular, scalable systems give engineers


complete freedom of choice. You decide how much to automate, which products to integrate, and how to combine Festo technologies with your in-house standards. The result is an automation landscape that is tailored to your requirements today and ready for the innovations of tomorrow. By combining flexibility with precision, Festo’s


electric automation empowers engineers to design smarter, faster, and more resilient machines – while reducing engineering overhead and minimising downtime.


DIGITALISATION - FROM REAL-TIME TRACKING TO LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE


The future of automation is digital – and Festo has been at the forefront from the beginning. As a founding member of the Industry 4.0 platform, we have helped shape the digital transformation of manufacturing by combining mechatronics, automation, and artificial intelligence into integrated, data-driven ecosystems. Festo’s digitalisation solutions cover the entire


value chain – from system design and simulation to operation, monitoring, and optimisation.


LIFELONG LEARNING - FROM COMPREHENSIVE EXPERTISE TO PEOPLE DEVELOPMENT Festo Didactic for learning solutions and developing technical skills. As the global market leader in technical education and industrial training, we create real added value for our customers as they move towards industrial transformation, helping them create the basis for productivity, innovation and sustainable growth. We systematically pass on our knowledge to the experts of tomorrow - training from a single source: from simple software solutions and customised training packages to digital learning


platforms and comprehensive training centres. Technology evolves fast – and success depends on keeping skills up to date. That’s why training is as important as technology at Festo. Our mission is simple: to empower engineers, technicians, and students with the knowledge and skills needed to thrive in an increasingly automated world. Festo Didactic offers a full spectrum of


learning solutions – from customised training packages and simulation software to fully equipped training centres. Our digital learning


We provide hardware, software, and AI tools that work together seamlessly to improve productivity and sustainability. Our Festo AX Industrial Intelligence platform gives engineers real-time insights into machine performance. By collecting and analysing live operational data, Festo AX helps reduce downtime, detect leaks, and prevent rejects – leading to significant gains in quality assurance and energy efficiency.


Predictive maintenance powered by Festo AX


ensures that potential issues are detected before they cause disruptions, enabling smoother operations and lower maintenance costs. Through our AI applications, such as Motion Insights, Festo brings artificial intelligence to the shop floor – quickly, simply, and cost-effectively. These tools allow users to deploy predictive algorithms for pneumatic systems or other motion elements without the need for extensive programming or AI expertise. And with our commitment to the digital twin,


Festo supports standardisation and consistency across machine and system building, helping engineers visualise, simulate, and optimise their designs long before production begins. From real-time monitoring to future-ready


AI tools, Festo’s digitalisation solutions help customers turn data into value – one smart decision at a time.


platform, Festo LX, takes this further, offering a comprehensive, interactive experience that allows learners to explore complex engineering concepts through practical, hands-on modules. By systematically transferring knowledge


from industry to education, we ensure that the next generation of experts is ready to drive industrial transformation. Whether it’s mastering pneumatics, robotics, digital control, or AI-based maintenance, Festo Didactic provides learning that lasts a lifetime – bridging the gap between today’s technologies and tomorrow’s possibilities such as renewable energy sources and environmentally sustainable manufacturing.
