Vacuum switches for decentralized vacuum systems
Specially designed to facilitate vacuum sensing in decentralized ejector based systems, Piab’s miniaturized vacuum switches VS4015/VS4016 and VS4118/VS4128 are growing popular because of their small size, low weight, and simple installation. “These pre-set vacuum switches offer plug and play installation, and have been developed to help manufacturers fully benefit from the advantages offered by decentralized […]
How do you select a vacuum cup?
When it comes to gripping and moving anything from cola cans to car fenders, vacuum cups on end-of-arm tooling are incredibly versatile devices in many automated handling systems. They come in countless types, sizes, constructions and materials to suit widely varying applications. Here are some general engineering considerations for choosing the right one for a […]
Double capacity ejector fits popular format
Piab is introducing a complement to its range of Value Line vacuum ejectors. The new aluminum block mounted ejector is dimensioned to emulate a popular ejector format, making it easy to install into many existing systems. Offering improved performance and more energy-efficient operation, the ejector is a cost-effective and easy-to-install alternative for operators of basic […]
Eliminate vacuum related downtime in your production
piCOMPACT 23 is the latest in a line of Piab vacuum generators that provides outstanding performance and quality. The new design increases uptime in your vacuum system to achieve more reliability. By working at a lower feed pressure and maximizing the utilization rate of the compressed air, the COAX ejectors reduce energy consumption while increasing […]
Piab website upgrade
Piab has announced that it has officially launched a new website. The new piab.com website makes it easier to find and purchase products. As with its line of vacuum products, Piab also recognizes the importance of updates to their website to show customers the latest in vacuum technology. The suction cup section has been upgraded […]
Reduce product droppage and lower scrap rates
To help automotive and white goods manufacturers improve production speed and eliminate bottlenecks, Piab offers its DURAFLEX Friction Cups, a line of suction cups providing the ultimate grip on oily and wet surfaces. The cups’ grip pattern enables operators to safely and reliably move slippery metal goods without slowing production lines. These friction cups from […]
New suction cup check valve senses part presence
Piab’s new piSAVE sense valve has a new design that work well in any orientation, even upside down. It is dirt tolerant and increases vacuum flow through the valve when vacuum level decreases to compensate for leakage. piSAVE sense flow control/check valves are used for object sensing on flexible vacuum handling devices with a centralized […]
Fully pneumatic device with connection for air-driven vacuum pumps
Piab introduces piSAVE optimize, a vacuum controlled proportional pressure regulator. A fully pneumatic device, easy to use and easy to install. piSAVE optimize senses the vacuum level in the system. The feed pressure of the compressed air to the vacuum pump/ejector is automatically regulated and controlled to maintain the set vacuum level. The vacuum level […]
Vacuum pump designed for small parts pick and place
Piab offers its patented COAX technology in a new small sized ejector called piPUMP MICRO. COAX is the most energy efficient ejector technology based on a multi-stage concept for creating vacuum with compressed air. The piPUMP can be used for small centralized systems but is perhaps even more suitable for semi-decentralized systems, i.e., a few […]
