VACUUM CARTRIDGES / INTEGRATION
INTRODUCTION
PIAB VACUUM PUMPS ARE PREDOMINANTLY BASED ON THE PATENTED COAX
®
TECHNOLOGY
When compressed air (1) passes through the nozzles (2), air is
pulled through with the stream of compressed air. “Suction” is thus
created at the opening of each stage (3).
COAX
®
cartridges exist in several sizes (MICRO, MINI & MIDI) and models (Bi, Ti, Pi, Si & Xi), making
them suitable for every application. The technology ensures excellent performance at both low and
high feed pressures - ideal for situations where compressed air lines deliver air at low or fluctuating
pressures. Pumps based on COAX
®
technology can operate within the range of 0.17 to 0.60 MPa.
Integrating COAX
®
technology directly into the machine body allows you to position vacuum power
exactly where needed, making maximum use of energy and increasing speed by eliminating line
losses and inefficiencies. For more information visit

Piab’s decentralised vacuum gripper system (VGS™) is a product solution integrating high-quality
DURAFLEX
®
suction cups with COAX® based vacuum cartridges. The VGS™ makes selection, sizing
and installation of a vacuum system easier. With a VGS™, you will enjoy the benefits of a more cost
efficient and reliable vacuum system.
Piab centralised pumps are also based on COAX
®
technology. These are modularised pumps with
COAX
®
cartridges; how many cartridges depends on the vacuum flow need.
