In the twenty-first episode of the Manufacturing Hub, we speak with Sandro Quintero and Alejandro Lopez from Festo USA and Canada respectively. We begin our discussion by understanding their backgrounds and more importantly perseverance in immigrating to a new country and continuing to pursue their career in automation. We then dive deeper into the culture at Festo and uncover how a privately held company is able to provide support unlike any other. Festo has expertise in integrating their own products, as well as, other manufacturers. They don't shy away from putting together a custom system that utilizes Festo, Rockwell Automation, Cognex, etc. We end our discussion by discussing the various training programs Festo is able to offer to their employees, some of the personal interests Alejandro and Sandro are pursuing and their outlook on the manufacturing industry.
