Festo launches new valve island: VTUX
The VTUX sets new standards in terms of materials, modularity and communication. The successor to the proven CPV, MPA-L, MPA-S and VTUG series convinces with its high flow rate. And with the communication system AP-I and AP-A, VTUX is the perfect platform for digitized production!
Thanks to internal communication, the modules can be arranged as desired. This offers maximum freedom in valve terminal design.
Machine concepts come first
The VTUX is clearly matched to the control architecture of the machine - it always fits!
Communication
AP communication technology ensures very easy connections, even over long distances, as if all system participants were in the same place.
Easy to use
Hose connections? Easy to configure! Even the insertion fittings can be configured to the desired hose diameter, saving space and ensuring optimized air flows. You can also define as many pressure zones as you want.
Deployable everywhere
Not only can the VTUX be used with short compressed air lines, but it also has a lightweight design, making it ideal for use on front-end units, such as a gantry or robotic arm.
Highlights
The valve terminal VTUX marks the beginning of a new era in valve terminals. Its features make VTUX a valve terminal platform of the future:
- AP technology from Festo, the new technology standard for communication, ensures lower costs and at the same time higher performance.
- Integrated: the prerequisites for safety designs, predictive maintenance and for data exchange with the cloud in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT).
- Compact and lightweight: this saves space and weight in the machine and increases productivity through faster cycle times. The simple and modular design enables fast assembly and commissioning.
- The low weight, very compact dimensions and flexible connection options are ideal for decentralized machine concepts.

Festo - SFAMRead moreBecause the SFAM is a pressure and flow sensor in one, machines need only one component to measure multiple values. By measuring compressed air pressure, flow and consumption, among other things, the SFAM provides full insight into the compressed air system. This insight is the first step in a more economical, safe and sustainable system.

Festo - Proportional pressure control valve VPPIRead moreWith the VPPI proportional pressure control valve, all nominal sizes are controlled directly; without the need for pilot valves or pre-stages. Due to the pressure compensating element, the valve regulates dynamically and accurately; even at the larger nominal sizes. The powerful and low-friction voice coil makes the VPPI highly dynamic. The integrated position controller contributes to high stability.
