What Happens After You Request Pricing
1. Request pricing
Your configured part number and selections come straight to the Motion World team.2. We size it
An automation specialist reviews your application, asks any follow-up questions, and sizes the system with Festo's engineering tools.3. You get a concept and quote
We send back a recommended Festo system, a quote, and a CAD concept if you asked for one.Description
Every gantry is built around the application, so there is no single part number to buy off the shelf. This configurator lets you explore the possibilities first: choose how the part needs to move, how big and heavy it is, how fast the system has to run, and what should be included. Your configured part number captures those choices so our team can start with a clear picture of what you need.
Festo handling systems combine electric and pneumatic axis modules into single-axis systems, linear gantries, planar surface gantries, and three-dimensional gantries. Standard styles are built for long strokes and heavy loads, high-speed styles use fixed motors and a low moving mass for fast cycles, and compact styles save height and footprint for machine integration.
