The sky carries countless legends
Thousands of years ago, people were obsessed with soaring in the sky
The ocean, bred with ancient myths
As the place where life begins, it is full of wonder and mystery
From the story of “Nuwa mending the sky” and “Jingwei filling the sea”
to “Shenzhou spacecraft”, “Jiaolong submersible” and other technologies
People’s exploration of the sky and ocean never stops
Festo, even more so
For 25 years, Fei’s bionic Robots have been “going up and down”In the process of maturing and perfecting step by stepNot only are they getting lighter and smarterApproaching natural prototypes in appearance and functionautomation technology based on bionic technology
also play an important role in the Industrial field
In 2007, the air ray Air_Ray came out
Air_ray with Fin Ray Effect® controlled wing flap driver can soar freely in the air
In 2011, Smartbird was born
This is the first time that Festo has successfully combined high-efficiency technology with a natural model. Lightweight carbon fiber structure. The two driving methods are integrated. The intelligent bird that can fly and land autonomously with only flapping wings demonstrates the characteristics of functional integration, resource saving, and optimized airflow.
In industrial applications, functional integration provides data support for the development and optimization of hybrid drive technology.Fast, high-precision linear drive technology. In hydroelectric generators (wing-stroke generators) and new drives for process automation, smart birds provide direction early on.Today, Festo applies its expertise in the field of fluid dynamics to the development of a new generation of cylinders and valves.Take up less space, better flow, and more energy efficientof compact products.
Of course, this is not enough
In 2013, the bionic dragonfly BionicOpter appeared
It can fly in any direction
And complete fixed-point flight and slow gliding in the air
13 degrees of freedom for its unusual flight behavior
In 2015, the bionic butterfly eMotionButterflies
It is another masterpiece of “God Robot” with extremely low material cost, a highly integrated research carrier, and an ultra-light bionic butterfly with collective behavior that can coordinate flight with the help of an indoor GPS equipped with an infrared camera
and2018, BionicFlyingFoxStunning appearance at the World robot Conference
It is equipped with a light and strong wing membrane for semi-autonomous flight precise positioning, action optimization, and precise flight control in a specific space.
In 2006, the Robotic fish Airacuda was born
It is driven by four fluidic muscles
S-shaped movement and flexible steering at the rear
By functional dissection of fish fin rays
Enables efficient and simple underwater maneuvering
In 2009, the cute bionic penguin AquaPenguin
Break through the limit of the direction of movement
It has an efficient and streamlined shape and navigates autonomously in all directions
Can navigate autonomously in confined spaces
can even magically swim backwards
In 2013, the bionic jellyfish AquaJellies 2.0
A qualitative leap in technology
They rely on infrared sensor systems to complete collective autonomous behavior
And complete monitoring and status tracking on your smartphone
A highly integrated lightweight model
AquaJellies 2.0 demonstrates the potential and ideas of efficient systems in the field of water technology, achievable in the water treatment industryProcess MonitoringandStatus monitoringto overcome all important problems in the equipment and process industries.
This year, the newly developed BionicFinWaveI believe that everyone will not be unfamiliar
It has a unique fin drive that controls its own movement, communicates with the outside world via radio, transmits data and can be installed reliably in a very small space. Coordination in water and wastewater technology or other areas of the process industryBionicFinWave does a great job of detecting
series measurement or data acquisition, etc.service
