Certified hygiene Low energy consumption Reliable production Minimal maintenance Built-in quality

The first PIAB product was a pair of compasses that simplified the work of designers and draftsmen. This pair of compasses has given the company its name. Pi (=3.14) AB.
In 1972 PIAB introduced the patented multistage ejector that still is the guiding-star for many companies in the industry.
The first USDA accepted pneumatic vacuum conveyor was launched in the year 2000. The conveyor meets the requirements of the food industry.
PIABs latest patent: The COAX technology a further development of the multistage ejector principle that offers new possibilities of customization and integration.
Simplicity
We build our conveyors so that they simplify your work. They are easy to disassemble and assemble when cleaning them. They have no crevices or pockets where powder can accumulate. The surfaces are easy to visually inspect. Quick inspection and cleaning increases your productivity.
Reliability
The vacuum conveyor has few moving parts. It is only the bottom flap that opens for emptying of powder. The vacuum pump has no moving parts at all. And through this the need of service and spare parts is minimal and the operational reliability maximum. Low costs for service and spare parts increase your productivity.
Economy
Faster conveying with higher capacity and, at the same time, lower energy consumption. That is the result of PIABs development work. By using PIABs vacuum conveyors you can lower your energy costs even further. Low energy consumption leads to increased productivity.
Operational reliability
The conveyors are designed to last. There is a built-in quality that guarantees long and problem-free operation. The risk for a stoppage in your production is non-existent. High reliability without unnecessary production stoppages increases your productivity.
Efficiency
We have made comparisons with traditional compressed air-driven vacuum conveyors. The result shows that PIABs new conveyors, C21, C33 and C56, display a strongly increased capacity at the same level of energy consumption. When conveying wheat flour, for example, the capacity was increased by approximately 2040 per cent. Faster conveying of larger volumes increases your productivity.
Hygiene
USDA and 3-A are the finest proofs of quality that you can expect to obtain. This proof is attached to a series of PIABs vacuum conveyors. USDA and 3-A have extremely stringent hygienic requirements of process equipment used in the food industry. (Please read more about it on page 18 in this brochure.) PIABs equipment has first-rate hygienic characteristics.
Quality
PIAB meets the stringent requirements of the food and pharmaceutical industries by making it possible for our customers to build the quality into their manufacturing process instead of strictly checking the end-product. Thinking of quality from start to goal increases your productivity.
