An eco-friendly vacuum system
At the basis of the highest performing, energy-efficient production process is an optimized handling solution. By never using more energy than absolutely necessary, companies can reduce their carbon footprint as well as their costs, from the vacuum pump itself down to each and every optimizing control. Piab can work with you to achieve the lowest possible energy consumption.
Environmental index
Your pump will require less compressed air when placed close to the point of suction, thus reducing CO2 emissions and energy consumption. The graph demonstrates the relationship between environmental impact and the distance of the pump from the point of suction.
Best to use a decentralized vacuum system
A decentralized system with the vacuum pump/cartridge placed directly at the point of suction eliminates the risk of loss in the vacuum piping and the need for expensive, oversized components. The response time will be reduced substantially without unnecessary volume to be evacuated. In addition, each suction cup is independent, so pressure loss in one cup will not affect the others.
- Lowest energy usage
- Fastest cycle time
- Safest product handling
- Most flexible design for zoning
- Easiest troubleshooting
- Most consistent/even performance
If not, design a centralized vacuum system
A centralized vacuum system is designed to have one vacuum source for multiple suction points. With the vacuum source located further from the cup, system performance loss increases due to restrictions in tubing fittings and manifolds. More energy needs to be expended to overcome these losses and achieve required system performance.
- Easy installation
- Easy vacuum sensing and controls
- Light end-of-arm tooling
- Simple filtration options
