Vacuum Automation
Improve your productivity and energy efficiencyOur Mission
“The piab mission is to increase productivity for industrial
customers and provide energy saving solutions by
promoting our superior technology universally.”
DpiabDpiab
A powerful business partner
Piab has a wide experience in various applications and industries, from pick and placing small candies to
large heavy boxes. We strive to increase productivity, thus reinforcing your edge in the market. We also aim to
reduce your energy consumption and improve your working environment. Partnering with Piab means more
than having a reliable supplier of vacuum solutions.
Leader
We take pride in being the innovators in vacuum technology. Technical leadership means finding and
developing solutions that have not yet been found by others. You should feel confident in knowing that your
relationship with us will keep you on the cutting edge with innovative technology solutions.
AtPiab, we commit to serve you with the same level of know-how and service no matter where you are in the
‘world, A strong presence, with representatives all over the world allows Piab to present a global, unified front
with one mission - to grow your business, Our success is a result of being focused on your success.
Productivity
In today’s very competitive world, we realise that you need, as much as we do, to always be one step ahead
of the competition. Among other things, one should always aim to improve productivity. Piab's technology
and experience supports your ambition in improving productivity and maintaining your competitive edge.
Energy saving
We believe strongly in taking responsiblity for our shared environment. We always strive to have products
that are more energy efficient than the competitor. ror example, using our smaller compressed air arven
pumps directly on your machine as opposed to using a mechanical vacuum pump with inherent energy losses
through long vacum fines until reaches the main ection poi. This means that our products save energy
and give you more flexbity on where to intl your machinery.Main indust

COAX® - A forerunner within air-driven vacuum technology
COAX® is an advanced solution for creating vacuum with compressed air
Based on Piab's multistage technology, COAX® cartridges are smaller, more
ficient and more reliable than conventional ejectors, which allow for the
design ofa flexible, modular and efficient vacuum system. A vacuum system
based on COAX® technology can provide you with several times more
vacuum flow than conventional systems, allowing you to increase speed
lI with high reliability while reducing energy consumption with up to 50%,
\wmen compressed a) passes though the nozzles (2), is piled
‘through with te stream oF compressed at Sucton wile generated =
atthe opening of each stage (3), resulting in vacuum \
COAX® cartridges exist in a 3-stage or 2-stage design in diferent sizes (MICRO, MINI and MIDI) and in several
characteristics (Si, Xi, Ti and BV/P) making them suitable for many applications. The technology ensures
excellent performance at both low and high feed pressures (0.18-0.6 MPa, [26-87 psi). Some cartridges
are available in both 9-stage and 2-stage designs. The S-stage is for increased vacuum flow and faster
evacuation and the 2-stage is more economical and for applications where size and weight are factor.

Best to use a decentralized vacuum system
‘A decentralized system with the vacuum pump/cartridge placed directly at the point of suction eliminates the
risk of loss in the vacuum piping and the need for expensive, oversized components.
> Lowest energy usage
> Fastest cycle time
» Safest product handling
> Most flexible design for zoning
> Easiest troubleshooting
Independently working suction cups
> Most consistent/even performance

A centralized vacuum system is designed to have one vacuum source for multiple suetion points.
