Future Plant - Industry 4.0

A few kilometers from the Festo headquarters in Germany an ultra-modern production facility was just completed: Scharnhausen Technology Plant.
It is the primary site for the production of Festo valves and electronics.
The project stems from the desire of the group to invest in Europe with high tech and automation solutions, and integrates some of the solutions identified by the German consortium Industry 4.0 that Festo is part of.
This site experiments not only future manufacturing technologies but also new organisational models and processes in the sectors of Product design, Industrialization, Production and Logistics, Data integration, Energy Efficiency and Lean Processes.

Discover the best solutions applied in the new production site of Festo AG:

  • Industry 4.0
  • Production
  • Work organisation
  • Innovation, industrialization and automation
  • Internet of things
  • Energy saving

Creating the ideal working conditions

This "factory of the future" has been designed to enable greater collaboration between product development, purchasing, industrialization and production departments.
In the plant, offices and development workshops are placed close to industrialization and production areas.
And R&D workstations are located within the departments.
The know how of production experts is already integrated upstream of the development of new products.
This not only reduces costs, but it also increases product quality and reduces time to market.

Adaptable

The technological plant of Scharnhausen is designed so as to be ready for future developments, new needs or expansion, at any time.

Optimization of production processes

Time to market is guaranteed by optimized procedures along several value streams and realigned fundamental processes.
The entire material flow, from reception to machining, from assembly to delivery, is designed with a Lean perspective.

Environmentally friendly and very energy-efficient

The Technology Plant is also designed as a very energy-efficient factory.
Cogeneration plants generate electricity and heating for the facility.
The heat generated by the equipment in the processing area is used for heating.
There are innovative solutions for the use of rainwater, for the recycling of process water and also for lighting.
