piINLINE®plus for perfect press-shop vacuum
piINLINE®plus is a new configurable platform for decentralized vacuum generation from Piab.
These ultra-lightweight vacuum ejectors feature a unique and integrated automatic release mechanism, and come in
compact, minimized packages. Tailor-made for automotive press-shop automation, piINLINE®plus offers new technology that will also benefit various other markets and applications. Designed with ports for compressed air and vacuum in-line, supported by quick-fit
push-in connectors of varying diameter, they are mounted directly onto the hose, close to the point of suction.

| Tailor-made for automotive press-shop automation, piINLINE®plus offers new technology that will also benefit various other markets and applications.
Made in lightweight and extra durable PA66 material, the piINLINE®plus generators utilize Piab's COAX®
technology, ensuring low air consumption (typically 25 percent lower than competing technology), excellent suction capacity, and fast evacuation. Generators are supplied with either one or two MICRO COAX® cartridges; two cartridges for larger suction
cups in high speed applications, or one cartridge for smaller suction cups or for reduced air consumption when high speed is not essential.
”The generators in the piINLINE®plus family feature a significantly lower weight per unit compared with our competitors' products. The lower weight per unit corresponds to a total
weight saving of over 1.1 lbs. in a typical press shop gripper with eight cups. This enables faster press line rates, and will result in less wear on robot arms,” says Josef Karbassi, Vice President of Piab's Automation Division.

The integrated release function is available in two optional designs – the easily controllable Atmospheric Quick Release (AQR), which require no extra compressed air hose, and the
very fast performing Exhaust Block Release (EBR).
”Both designs are based on a durable polyurethane membrane which is not sensitive to dust. This ensures highly reliable production systems with improved uptime,” adds Karbassi.
