FESTO motors and servo drives provide precise, reliable and controlled motion for industrial automation and machine-building applications. Designed for demanding motion-control requirements, these solutions combine high-performance motors with intelligent drive technology to achieve accurate positioning, controlled speed and repeatable machine movement. 

At Hydro Pneumatics, we offer FESTO servo motors, stepper motors and servo drives for a wide range of automation applications. These products can be integrated with electric axes, handling systems, robotics, assembly machines, packaging equipment and other automated machinery. 

FESTO motion solutions are designed to work as part of integrated electric automation systems, combining motors, drives, controllers and mechanical motion components to deliver coordinated machine movement. 

Motor and Servo Drive Types 

FESTO offers different motor and drive technologies to meet the motion requirements of industrial automation systems. The right solution depends on factors such as load, speed, torque, positioning accuracy, cycle time and control architecture. 

FESTO Servo Motors 

Servo motors are designed for applications requiring precise control of position, speed and torque. They are particularly suitable for dynamic and demanding automation applications where accurate and repeatable movement is important. The FESTO EMMT-AS servo motor is designed for dynamic applications and offers low cogging torque for good controllability and positioning performance. Its space-saving connection technology also supports flexible machine installation. 

FESTO Stepper Motors 

Stepper motors are used for controlled incremental movement and positioning applications. They can be suitable for automated equipment where repeatable movement and straightforward motion control are required. Stepper motor solutions can be integrated with suitable drive and control components according to the requirements of the application. 

FESTO Servo Drives 

Servo drives control the operation of servo motors by managing parameters such as position, speed and torque. The FESTO CMMT-AS is a multi-protocol servo drive designed for point-to-point and interpolating motion. It supports Ethernet-based communication systems and can be integrated into automation environments using appropriate control architectures. The CMMT-AS also supports precise torque, speed and position control and can be configured using Festo Automation Suite. 

How to Choose the Right Motor and Servo Drive 

Selecting the correct motor and servo drive requires consideration of the complete motion application. The motor, drive, mechanical axis and controller should be properly matched to achieve the required performance. 

Load and Torque Requirements 

Determine the load that the motor needs to move and calculate the required continuous and peak torque. The selected motor should provide sufficient torque for the application without unnecessary oversizing. 

Speed Requirements 

Consider the required operating speed, acceleration and deceleration. High-speed applications may require motors and servo drives designed for dynamic motion and rapid response. 

Motor and Drive Compatibility 

The servo motor and servo drive should be correctly matched. FESTO provides compatible combinations of servo motors and servo drives for electric automation applications. 

Communication and PLC Integration 

Modern servo drives can communicate with PLCs and higher-level automation systems. The CMMT-AS supports protocols including EtherCAT, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and Modbus, allowing integration into different industrial automation architectures. 

Installation Space 

Control cabinet and machine space should also be considered. Compact motor and servo-drive designs can help simplify machine construction and reduce installation requirements. 

Where Are Motors and Servo Drives Used? 

FESTO motors and servo drives can be used in a wide range of industrial automation and motion-control applications. 

Automated Assembly 

Servo motors and drives can provide controlled positioning for automated assembly processes where repeatable movement is required. 

Packaging Machinery 

Motor and servo-drive systems can control indexing, positioning, feeding and other coordinated movements in packaging machines. 

Robotics and Handling 

Servo motors and drives are suitable for robotic and handling applications requiring coordinated and precise axis movement. 

CNC and Machine Tools 

Precision motor and drive systems can be used for controlled axis movement and positioning in machine-tool applications. 

Material Handling 

Servo-driven systems can provide controlled movement for automated transfer, positioning and handling equipment.
