Manually and mechanically actuated valves VMEF/VHEF

​​​​​​​Direct control!

Whether the mechanism is triggered by a workpiece, a component or a person, manual or mechanical valves are the most direct way to control a process. There is no energy to convert, no additional response times, no long cables. The actuated plunger switches the valve and triggers the next step in the process. The new series now comes with many functions for use directly in the field.


Mechanical principles

The essence of any mechanical device is an accurate response. That is exactly why this mechanical system is designed to respond with precision. It can therefore be installed without backlash in just a few steps.

Applications in the field

A manual or mechanical valve must be optimally designed and capable of withstanding loads to allow for the occasional harsh conditions found in the field. You can rely on the new VMEF/VHEF series even these circumstances. They ensure smooth processes without unduly straining your budget.


​​​​​​​Highlights:

  • Precise mechanical system
  • Sturdy metal housing
  • Ergonomic, reliable operation
  • Minimal actuating forces
  • Modern design​​​​​​​

Festo Simplified Motion
Simplified Motion Series consists of different electromechanical components together with a simple and application-optimised combination of motor and servo drives, the so-called integrated drive. This solution does not require an external servo drive. The electric alternative for very simple movement and positioning tasks does not require the usual commissioning process that is needed for traditional electric drive systems, which can often be quite complex. It also offers special movement characteristics such as gently cushioned retracting into the end position, or simplified press-fitting and clamping functions.

Festo DGST
Small but strong: the DGST is the smallest of its kind and the shortest slide drive on the market. However, it is strong when it comes to precision, forces, motion control, durability and reliability. For maximum torsional rigidity, the yoke and slide are a single part and the sensors and cushioning are fully integrated.

Festo OVEL
The new compact vacuum generator OVEL from Festo has been developed for efficient and decentralized vacuum generation. Due to the modular construction you can pick precisely the right configuration for an specific application. In addition, the lightweight generator has an analog pressure sensor, the values of which can be made visible with the help of an SCDN signal converter.
