Compact vacuum ejectors
Piab has introduced the piCOMPACT10,
a manifold-mounted and functional ejector system based on energy-efficient
MICRO COAX® technology. By working
at low feed pressure and maximizing
the utilization rate of the compressed
air, the ejectors are designed to reduce
energy consumption for manufacturers.
Products in the line are suitable for
pick-and-place operations that require
efficient handling of small, heavy parts.
According to the company, the ejectors provide three times more vacuum
flow than similar products, reducing energy consumption by 30 to 50 percent.
By offering an increased vacuum flow,
the ejectors strengthen product grip to
increase pickup speed, minimize product damage, and reduce waste, the
manufacturer states. They also allow
fast release of products from the suction cups onto the production line.
