Series products in the Bionic Handling Assistant
Evolution made by Festo: from a basic component to a complex product
New generative manufacturing technologies State-of-the-art generative manufacturing technologies are a crucial part of the production of the Bionic Handling Assistant. Additive manufacturing allows the production of customised, movable system parts made of polyamide applied in thin layers and fused using a laser. This enables customised 3D printing of sophisticated products. The high flexibility and low density of the polyamide at only 0.95 grammes per cubic centimetre are ideal for the Bionic Handling Assistant. Cost-effective production With generative manufacturing there are no tool costs, while follow-up costs for resources and equipment are reduced. No delays in the development of tools means a faster time to
market and an increase in overall profitability. Fast response times lead to efficiency and flexibility in time-critical projects. Symbiosis of proven, innovative product solutions Pneumatics and mechatronics serve as the basic technologies for harnessing these natural principles. The robotic controller CMXR and piezo valve technology from Festo bring the Bionic Handling Assistant to life. SMAT sensors detect the paths and enable precise alignment of the system. The adaptive gripper grasps objects positively and non-positively.
Freely manoeuvrable and flexible handling system Eleven degrees of freedom open up a host of task-specific transport directions which, in contrast to conventional handling systems, are not restricted to linear motion. Its structure is basically flexible and is only stiffened when required via pneumatic control, allowing it to travel along the required path. Unlike conventional industrial robots, the Bionic Handling Assistant is compliant and does not have to be shielded from humans. Future fields of application Its ability to provide safe handling in all operating states means that the system can be used wherever humans need non-hazardous support from machines. Possible applications can be found in agriculture,
private households and care institutions or in industry as a handling system to support assembly processes.
Looking to an integrated future with the automation platform CPX

Integrated solutions that can be customised for specific tasks are the future of automation. Function integration, such as that offered by the automation platform CPX, makes it possible to tailor solutions to meet precise requirements. This means more economical solutions for you, and all from a single source. Thats because Festos integrated automation platform combines many different technologies that were previously separate on one platform:
Electric and pneumatic components combined with motion control. Proportional pneumatics and servopneumatics on one platform. Safety technology with shutdown concepts up to performance level e (Cat. 4) that can be realised immediately. More integration with a smaller footprint An integrated controller, diagnostics concept, web monitor and a wide range of IT services ensure seamless integration into existing control concepts. If you want to see the future of automation, look no further than CPX.
Breaking new ground in automation with CPX The integrated automation platform CPX covers a virtually unlimited spectrum of applications. The more than 10,000 successful factory and process automation applications based on CPX are testament to this. The Interactive Guide to Integrated Automation provides further evidence of the capabilities of CPX using a real machine with more than 12 processing stations. This application demonstrates how the solution package
from Festo can handle every conceivable task by effortlessly combining different technologies, function integration for electric, pneumatic and motion control components, camera technology and safety engineering. Take a look for yourself:
Added functionality thanks to new component options A key consideration when developing a new CPX component is whether it will have the capability to realise a large number of new applications or simplify existing ones. The following components fulfil these requirements: Hood CAFC-X1-GAL ATEX impact protection without a control cabinet and up to 70% more cost-effective Compact, no wall through-holes No design costs simply order everything at the same time Profisafe shutdown module CPX-FVDA-P Safe disconnection of the valve voltage of a valve terminal plus two additional outputs Self-monitoring, dual-channel, category 3 to ISO 13849 PL e (ISO 13849) or SIL3 (EN 61508) possible Pressure sensor module CPX-4AI-P Maximum function integration in the tightest of spaces 4 relative pressure measurements or 2 differential pressure measurements Pre-assembled, tested, parameterisable, transfer of the absolute value
Technology mix: cutting plastic sheets Electric and servopneumatic axes in a highly functional and energyefficient combination thanks to optimum technology. Servopneumatics: embossing parts Servopneumatics for sturdy and costeffective positioning and force control in a synergetic process that saves on resources. Turnkey packages: dynamic stacking of parts from a conveyor belt Designed for multi-axis movement up to 2.5 D, the integrated CoDeSys controller CPX-CEC-C1-/M1 coordinates the movement of the electric axes in a turnkey mechatronic solution package.

Energy efficiency built in Mechatronic Motion Solutions
Unique in the world: the pioneering platform strategy with free combination of technologies. Its key advantage: providing the right solutions for reliable, economical automation, in which energy efficiency plays an important role. Linear and rotary movement, vacuum applications, gripping and control: Mechatronic Motion Solutions combines components, modules, systems as well as the software for all types of automation solutions, whether pneumatic, servopneumatic, electric or a mix of these. The integrated automation platform CPX and motion control make for an extremely compatible combination. Be it for standard or complex handling, the combinations of the mechatronic modular system produce solutions with built-in energy efficiency. This is possible thanks to, among others, the principle of freedom of choice and technological neutrality, which demands that the most suitable technology be used. And precise design means that oversizing or undersizing is avoided.
10
Electric or pneumatic? The ideal solution. The mini slides DGSL and EGSL come from the same family. Both are precise, resilient and suitable for all handling tasks, especially those involving joining or pressfitting. DGSL positions pneumatically while EGSL positions electrically, and they are available as a complete package with motors and controllers from Festo. Standardised interfaces ensure that both can be used at the same locations if required. This is a crucial requirement for ensuring that both technologies work seamlessly together for the cutting of plastic sheets, for example, and exploit all of their strengths namely maximum precision and rapid, strong feeding.
Designed for the specific task at hand Having the right combination of slide, motor and controller also plays an important role when it comes to ensuring maximum energy efficiency. This is achieved using the PositioningDrives sizing software. The freedom to choose between the parameters description and definition of the load case: dynamic response, delay, weight, etc. description of the mounting position: horizontal, vertical, angled helps to avoid oversizing or undersizing of motors, gear units and slides. This results in the lowest possible energy costs with the electric axis EGSL for the respective load case.
Electric and pneumatic components working together in a laminating system The fabrics for car interior trim are uniformly laminated on a 3D raised surface (A, B or C pillar) in a laminating system for interior automotive parts. Throughput has increased threefold with this solution. Reliable material feed and clean, crease-resistant clamping of the trim are achieved electrically using 12 spindle axes of type EGC. These are controlled by means of a controller CECX-M1 with integrated motion control, while communication is via CANopen.
Overall pneumatic actuation is handled by a CPX/MPA valve combination with Profibus interface. Guided drives DFM lower infrared heating elements to activate the adhesive. The trim for the support structures is folded electrically/pneumatically using axes EGC in positioning mode and cylinders ADN. The laminated workpiece is then placed on a pallet using a vacuum.
Simple, reliable and energy-efficient design with PositioningDrives.

Reducing costs, guaranteeing quality through consistent innovation in pneumatics
After a period of economic crisis the market is finally moving again. However, while some parts may once again be experiencing unabated growth, others are diversifying due to differing requirements in the individual regions. Festo is responding to this change with cost-saving innovations that offer guaranteed quality. Innovation and standardisation are not mutually exclusive. Even the performance of standardised components can be continuously improved. When it comes to efficient standard pneumatics, smaller dimensions reduce costs, but not performance or quality. Three examples of new, performance-optimised standard components can be found on the next page.

Focus on reliable food production
Industrial food production must meet the highest hygiene standards and at the same time be productive. In such critical food and splash zones, where aseptic requirements often have to be met, it quickly becomes apparent whether components can actually deliver what they promise. One of the main challenges in this context is ease of cleaning of the machines. Automated cleaning concepts have been specially designed to ensure that the processing area is always clean. Furthermore, the area must be free of puddles of cleaning fluid or other residues. These obstacles can be overcome by consistently applying principles such as Clean Design and by using components and systems designed for maximum productivity. To achieve this, Festo offers a complete portfolio of products and systems as well as a range of services for process and factory automation.
Stephan Hartmann, Purchasing Nestl Germany and Scandinavia The criteria that we use to evaluate suppliers include not only initial costs, but also quality, reliability and capacity for innovation. We have had very positive experiences with Festo in this regard. I would be happy to recommend Festo to anyone.

Save time with the manufacturers declaration. With this declaration, Festo confirms that the cylinder meets the requirements of the EC regulation no. 1935/2004.
Clever innovations to prevent critical situations The new PPS cushioning for standard cylinders DSBF and round cylinders CRDSNU in Clean Design never has to be adjusted. This is done automatically and saves a huge amount of time during assembly, particularly in the case of drives that are difficult to access. Another advantage is the fact that there is no risk of incorrect settings being
made in the production process. The PPS automatically adapts to typical fluctuations caused by pressure and wear. Food safety with Clean Design The stainless steel round cylinder CRDSNU is designed according to Clean Design criteria to ensure good corrosion resistance even under aggressive environmental conditions. No corners and edges makes for easy cleaning, while
the lubrication with NSF-H1 grease and seals of the basic design are FDA-approved. It also comes with a declaration of conformity for use in food and splash zones. Systematically durable Durability through outstanding product quality is exemplified in the guided drive DGRF in Clean Design. With its 3 million double strokes it exceeds the
standard by a significant margin even under the harsh conditions of continuous cleaning with water. This is ensured by the dry-running seal from the Festo modular system for sealing. The seals and lubrication are FDA-approved.

Building the future with automation solutions for drinking water purification
Population growth, urbanisation and rising living standards are three factors that will lead to a significant increase in water consumption in developing or emerging nations in the future. Complete automation solutions from Festo can help lower energy costs and improve productivity, thus achieving maximum reliability of supply. Increasing reliability of supply while reducing energy costs In developed nations, process automation solutions from Festo also play a key role in reducing energy costs when carrying out improvements to existing water treatment plants. They also provide the security of a continuously operating water treatment process that delivers consistent quality, even during power failures. The water treatment plant in Cairo is a perfect example of this. Complete automation for fixed-bed filters In Cairo, water from the Nile is filtered to produce drinking water quality. Festo provides the complete control circuit system for fixed-bed filters. The clever filtration and backwashing procedure implemented in cooperation with BAMAG GmbH optimises the process significantly. It can also be operated purely pneumatically, even with manual control, which contributes to its built-in reliability.
16
Optimised process delivers more drinking water with less energy consumption By automating the cycle of filtration backwashing to clean filters filtration, it is possible to increase the amount of water produced per hour. This is because the control circuit system automatically detects precisely when and how long backwashing of the fixed-bed filter with air and rinse water is required. This means that drinking water production can be resumed as quickly as possible. Water filtration is one of the most significant contributors to energy consumption in water treatment plants. Targeted cleaning of the fixed-bed filter according to specific requirements saves a significant amount of energy, which can be used directly in the production of drinking water. Another positive side-effect is the elimination of water wastage during the process. Increased operational reliability even when there is no power The automation concept from Festo has helped to significantly reduce the response time in the event of a power failure. Just one
push of a button is all it takes to actuate the pneumatic manual control unit from the control cabinet for all fixed-bed filters. Pneumatics is the only automation technology that can offer this level of flexibility and operational reliability. Faster operation The benefits available in emergencies also apply to commissioning. Sand filtration can start even before the power supply is connected.
Perfectly matched product portfolio The automation solution consists of: Two process valves (1), which are automated with an open/close function using linear drives DLP. This controls the intake of untreated water and discharge of rinse water. Three butterfly valves (2)(3), which are automated with a control function using quarter turn actuator DFPB and analogue sensor boxes SRAP.
This controls the discharge of filtered water and the intake of air and cleaning water. The control cabinet (4) the brain of the process. The process is monitored and controlled with the integrated valve terminal CPX/VTSA, a PLC and visualisation via the graphical display and operating unit FED.

Long-term energy saving with Energy Saving Services

Rapid savings with a long-term effect? With the Energy Saving Services this is possible because the individual measures complement one another. In one case, the Festo Energy Saving Services carried out a check that helped a mechanical and plant engineering supplier make immediate savings of over 40,000 Euro annually on its energy and operating costs.
Lets start at the very beginning. Compressed air consumption at one of the suppliers plants was approx. 13.06 million m3 annually with a control pressure of 8 bar. With compressed air costing 2.5 cent/m3 on average, annual compressed air costs were in the region of 330,000 Euro. Based on the detailed analysis carried out, both the company and the Festo experts concluded that these costs were too high. Immediate reduction in energy costs The entire compressed air supply and all applications were investigated using an acoustic leakage
location system, which identified 501 leakages in a manufacturing area of approx. 15,000 m2. In most cases the leakages were due to loose connections and fittings. The leakage measurements were classified as large, medium and small, amounting to a total loss of 3,341 l/min. By immediately eliminating the leakages, it was possible to reduce compressed air costs by around 42,000 Euro. According to a study conducted by the Fraunhofer Institute ISI, effective leakage management accounts for almost 42% of the entire savings potential.
Increasing service life, reducing compressed air costs Additional savings can be achieved by optimising the compressors and modernising applications that are not energyefficient. Compressed air quality should also be improved, as it influences the service life of supply systems and equipment. According to the experts from Festo, once these steps have been carried out and the savings potential has been fully utilised, the company will have a significantly improved energy usage.
Savings potential Up to 50% through detailed compressed air consumption analysis during operation and downtimes Up to 40% through energy-efficient supply systems 10% through the demand-driven design of drive technologies and correct sizing of components with the Festo configuration tool FCT for commissioning and PositioningDrives for design

For 2011, Festo Training and Consulting is offering technical courses geared towards the specific requirements of water management companies: Fundamentals of pneumatics in water management This 3-day course provides an insight into process automation in water plants. Since this is an area where operating errors and miscalculations can have especially serious consequences, this course makes a decisive contribution to the process reliability of these systems. This process reliability is also demanded by the licensing and supervisory authorities and prescribed by law. Advanced course on pneumatics in water management In water treatment plants, more and more emphasis is being placed on the networking of all units involved in the process. As part of this, the individual collectors, pump stations and rainwater retention basins are automated and remotely controlled or monitored from a central control console. The signal states have to be recorded and evaluated, and action taken if necessary. In this 3-day course, participants consolidate their knowledge of components for process automation of water systems.

Measures to reduce risk are essential when building a safety-oriented machine. The previous standard DIN EN 954-1 only dealt with quantitative aspects. The latest standard DIN EN ISO 13 849-1, however, demands that the designer also perform a qualitative assessment of the safety control system. The purpose is to calculate the probability of failure. But how do you go about performing a risk analysis, determining the necessary performance levels and confirming these through calculation? Following this 2-day course, participants will be able to specify the components in a safety circuit and calculate the performance level of this circuit with the help of the SISTEMA software. Participants will also understand the qualitative aspect of DIN EN ISO 13 849-1. Register online for current dates and prices: www.festo-didactic.com/int-en/training-andconsulting/extended-search/
