New CMMT-ST from Festo offers big savings by bridging the gap between stepper and servo drive
Machine builders no longer need to choose between a stepper or servo drive, thanks to the CMMT-ST from Festo. This new extra low-voltage servo drive is capable of open- or closed-loop positioning, which effectively bridges the gap between stepper and servo drives. This means the user can tailor the CMMT-ST to suit the needs of the application and reap the benefits of both control formats.

Seamless connectivity as a guiding principle
Festo believes a true automation company should offer their customers seamless connectivity from the workpiece to the cloud, across the whole portfolio and independent of technology. Of course, no company can offer the entire needs of a machine builder, but what is offered should seamlessly fit together, mechanically, electrically, and intelligently.
