Products
Products Supplied
- Vacuum Suction Cups:
- Suction cups and soft grippers offer endless possibilities for your lifting and gripping needs. You can, for example, handle board materials or food, open bags, pick electronic components, label and hold objects. However, in different applications you need to fulfill different needs and requirements. Piab offers one of the market's widest ranges of suction cups so that each application will have its own solution. Tell us what your needs are, and we will together with you find the right solution and products.
- Pneumatic Vacuum Pumps:
- 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.
- GRIPPER SOLUTIONS:
- Piab provides an extensive offering for all types of palletizing and de-palletizing operations, no matter if you are looking for ergonomic handling equipment, components and sub-systems to build your own End of Arm Tool or ready- to- use palletizing End of Arm Tools for industrial robots or collaborative robots. We also provide demolding and de-gating applications in the plastic industry with our modular component portfolio, custom-made parts and components from well-known brands when building your End of Arm Tools. Advanced gripping solutions are complete gripper systems for specific application areas. The ready-to-go grippers are designed to be installed directly on the robot arm or tool changer. Several mounting interface options, in accordance with ISO-9409-1, are available, making it easy to install on most robot brands. Piab’s advanced gripping solutions will simplify and even eliminate engineering time for grippers, make installation easier and secure that state-of-the-art components are used and dimensioned correctly to achieve maximum performance and productivity for the customer.
