  • Gripping, lifting and moving. Evolving Automation.

  • Evolving automation since 1951. Piab is evolving automation through progressive gripping, lifting and moving solutions. We believe in an automated world where no resources are wasted, and no humans are injured.

      • Vacuum pumps and ejectors

      • Piab vacuum pumps/vacuum generators are predominately based on the patented COAX® technology. COAX® is an advanced solution for creating vacuum with compressed air. Based on Piab’s multistage technology, COAX® cartridges are smaller, more efficient and more reliable than conventional vacuum ejectors, which allow for the design of a flexible, modular and efficient vacuum system. A vacuum system based on COAX® technology can provide you with three times more vacuum flow than conventional systems, allowing you to increase speed with high reliability while reducing energy consumption.

          • Decentralized vacuum ejectors

          • piINLINE® and piSTAMP are small light-weight decentralized vacuum ejectors that use the patented COAX® technology inside or the new optional STX technology. They are ultra-lightweight decentralized vacuum generators, some of them with integrated release mechanisms in minimized packages.They can all be mounted directly on a hose close to the suction cup (or point of suction). The piINLINE®plus has, among other nice features, a patented feature, it is the first true inline (compressed air – vacuum) ejector with integrated automatic release function. Piab’s piINLINE® ejector program offers much better performance with at least 40-50% lower energy consumption and piSTAMP 25% lower energy consumption compared to competing inline single-stage ejectors in corresponding sizes. Decentralized vacuum ejectors are especially common in the automotive, electronic/semiconductor pick-and-place applications, dedicated packaging equipment, injection-molding automation and unloading/loading metal forming machines (bending, punching and laser-cutting).

          • Decentralized vacuum ejectors with safety check valve

          • These vacuum pumps combine high security and the most energy-efficient solution for sealed material, COAX® technology with automatic air-saving function. They have a check valve that traps vacuum in sealed applications and an integrated energy saving device that results in virtually no energy consumption. They are excellent products when working with vacuum handling devices that have to comply and fulfil legislated lifting norms for handling devices, for example (DIN/SS) – EN 13155, ASME Standard B30.20, etc.

          • Combined vacuum ejector and suction cup (VGS™)

          • Piab VGS™ – A product design where different suction cups are integrated with vacuum cartridges based on the patented COAX® technology.
