Piab vacuum pumps 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.

Vacuum cartridges / integration
COAX® is an advanced solution for creating vacuum with compressed air. 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.
Our vacuum cartridges are designed to integrate into your solutions. They are smaller, more efficient and more reliable than conventional ejectors, which allows for the design of a flexible, modular and efficient vacuum system.
COAX® MICRO
The two-stage COAX® cartridge MICRO is probably the world’s smallest multistage vacuum ejector. Its low weight makes it suitable to integrate close to the suction point in high speed pick-and-place applications of small objects. The Bi03-2 is suitable for very low or fluctuating feed pressures, Xi2.5-2 is best for handling sealed objects and the Si02-2 is good for handling porous materials or if surface leakage is present.
COAX® MINI
The two-stage COAX® cartridge MINI has small mounting dimensions and the three-stage COAX® cartridge MINI has high initial vacuum flow. The Pi cartridges offer high system reliability in case of fluctuating or low feed pressure and are suitable for handling sealed objects. The Si cartridges have large vacuum flow in relation to energy consumption and are good for handling porous materials or if leakage is present. The Xi cartridge is the right choice for handling sealed parts and when deeper vacuum level is needed.
COAX® MIDI
The two-stage COAX® cartridge MIDI has small mounting dimensions and the three-stage COAX® cartridge MIDI has high initial vacuum flow. The MIDI cartridges are efficient generators of blow-air and are also suitable for fast evacuation of large volumes. The Pi cartridge is recommended for non-leaking applications, or if the feed pressure fluctuates due to pressure drops, for high reliability of the vacuum system. The Si cartridges are recommended for leaking applications and have large vacuum flow in relation to energy consumption. The Xi cartridges are recommended for sealed applications and when deep vacuum is needed. This is the right choice when vacuum levels higher than 75 –kPa are needed.
piCHIP
The lightweight piCHIP unit is a small vacuum pump which is optimized for integration. It is flexible enough to surface mount quickly on a variety of materials. With its almost silent operation, the piCHIP is ideal for clean room operations. Medical and electronic industries are best suited to use this product in their vacuum applications.
