RS adds to Festo factory automation range
RS will also now provide Festo’s latest technology releases, such as SOOD and SOOE photoelectric sensors and VUVS pneumatic solenoid valves.
The Festo SOOD and SOOE laser and LED opto-electronic sensor families include diffuse sensors with background suppression, through-beam sensors, retro-reflective sensors, retro-reflective sensors for transparent objects, and laser contrast and distance sensors. SOOD integrated miniature sensors can cover a variety of object detection tasks in small confined spaces. They offer fast performance at a cost-effective price. SOOE sensors can provide all optical functions for object detection in an identical sensor housing.
Festo’s VUVS heavy-duty pneumatic solenoid valve range is flexible and reliable, with long service life. There are around 20 products in the family including the VUVS-L series, designed around a piston spool with sealing cartridge and offering a flow rate up to 2300 l/min, and the VUVS-LK series, using a piston spool with sealing ring and giving a flow rate up to 1000 l/min. A range of mounting options is available.
The expanded range of Festo products is available in Benelux, France, Germany, Italy and the UK.
