A better solution for conveying bulk material PIAB is a leader in developing innovative vacuum technology for use in automated material handling and factory automation processes. PIAB provides innovative solutions designed to help improve productivity and efficiency in manufacturing processes around the world. Our products are found in many industries. Our innovative products have helped make vacuum conveying the optimum method for automated material handling. PIAB s series of industrial vacuum conveyors make use of a patented vacuum technology called COAX. They are efficient, reliable, innovative and highly cost-effective. What is COAX technology? COAX, a patented technology, is a new and improved design on PIAB s innovative multistage concept for creating vacuum with compressed air. COAX integrates the internal components of a multistage vacuum pump into a vacuum cartridge. The result is a smaller, more efficient, more reliable and highly flexible technology. Why is COAX technology efficient and reliable? Energy is put to maximum use with the COAX technology. The vacuum pump module on the Industrial Vacuum Conveyor consumes less energy than conventional vacuum pumps. COAX vacuum cartridges are up to twice as fast and provide 3 times more flow than a typical conventional ejector with the same air consumption. COAX is also designed for low and fluctuating feed pressures (25-87 psi) with sustained vacuum performance for maximum reliability. COAX technology When compressed air (1) flows through the pump nozzles (2), air from outside of the pump will be entrained by the jet of air at the nozzle outlet. Suction will be generated at the openings to the various stages (3). Exhaust then exits the pump. 1 2 3 * COAX is a trademark registered by PIAB for vacuum pumps that utilize the patented COAX technology in which the nozzles and flap valves of the compressed-air driven vacuum pump are integrated into one single interchangeable unit COAX cartridge.

How does a PIAB vacuum conveyor work? The functional progress of a PIAB vacuum conveyor is always cyclical, with one conveying sequence and one emptying sequence. The work sequences are normally controlled by a timer. C. Inlet container A. PIAB vacuum pump with COAX Technology D. Pipeline (hose or pipe system) 1. Vacuum is created in a compressed air driven PIAB vacuum pump A. The pump can be automatically controlled. 2. The bottom valve B closes and the vacuum increases in the container C and the conveying pipeline D. B. Bottom valve G. Control system F. Filter 3. The powder is sucked away from the feed station E into the conveying pipeline and then to the container. 4. The filter F protects the pump and the surrounding area from dust and small particles. 5. During the suction period, the air shock tank is filled with compressed air. E. Feed station 6. At a preset time, the pump and the conveying are stopped and the bottom valve B is opened. The powder is emptied at the same time as the airshock is activated and the compressed air cleans the filter from dust and small particles. 7. When the pump starts again, this process is repeated and a new cycle starts. The suction time and emptying time are normally controlled by a pneumatic or an electric control system G. 4
Our testing facility PIAB s state-of-the-art testing facility ensures quality control by allowing customers to test the process in which they will move their powder, granule or fluid samples. PIAB s vacuum conveyor testing facility is especially designed for engineers in the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries, who deal with materials that are often health impairing and/or sensitive to humidity and contamination. Testing in the laboratory ensures customers that their material can be conveyed safely, hygienically, quietly and efficiently. PIAB engineers assess conveying characteristics over various vertical and horizontal distances and provide customers with a computer-generated analysis of volume conveyed per hour or minute over a given distance. This detailed report allows customers to be certain that vacuum cycle time and energy consumption are effective. PIAB has a vacuum conveyor for your unique industrial application Raw materials in the shape of powders, granules, pellets or flakes are very common in the industrial world. Below are a few examples that have been successfully tested for conveyability in the PIAB Test Center: Aluminum Oxide Bath Salt Bird seed Cat Food Celite Chromites Sand Cocoa beans Coffee beans Coffee beans (whole) Dog Food Enamel raw material Fish food Flour Glue Pellets Grass seed Plastic Pellets Rice Rock salt Salt Saw dust Sesame seeds Sodium Bicarbonate Sprayed rubber Sugar (granulated) Table salt Tablets Whole coffee beans Zinc Borate Conveyor Capacity vs. Horizontal Distance Conveyor figures are based on a vertical height of 13 feet and a tube diameter of 2 inches using the model IC3302.
