RS and Festo are fueling the evolution of process automation

RS, a high-service global product and service solutions provider for industrial customers, offers Festo’s extensive portfolio of process automation products for industrial fluid process control applications, spanning core components, like process and piloting valves, to smart solutions, like remote I/O systems.

Fluid process control is vital to virtually every industrial market segment, including food and beverage, water and wastewater, pharmaceutical, oil and gas, and chemical. Automating the movement of fluids, including liquids, gases, and even granulated solids, eliminates the requirement for manual operation and the associated risk of human error. It also improves process efficiency, safety, productivity, profitability, and product quality.

Process automation systems have delivered these advantages for decades and, when equipped with Industry 4.0 solutions popularized in factory automation applications, can unlock smart capabilities, like IIoT-enabled remote monitoring and control, that further amplify these core benefits. Smart process automation systems prove especially beneficial in environments with challenges spanning space constraints to hazardous conditions.
