Stop the Drops. Optimize the Design.

Get a Grip on Piab Vacuum Pumps

Learn how to turn “vacuum confusion” into confident customer conversations. In this episode, we break down sealed vs leaking applications, centralized vs decentralized systems, and match them to Piab pumps solutions. Perfect for anyone who wants to feel confident navigating Piab’s vacuum pump portfolio.

Stop the Drops. Optimize the Design.

What turns a “good enough” vacuum setup into a system you can rely on not to drop parts? In this episode, we take you into practical system design. We'll discuss how to choose the right cups for porous and non‑porous materials, why increasing cup area often beats pulling the vacuum level deeper, how to size in realistic safety factors for fast robot motion, and when to pick centralized versus decentralized vacuum architectures. Tune in to learn how to design vacuum lifting systems that protect your products, cut energy waste, and keep your line running without the drops.

Bag Handling Tips by J&J

We are bringing back a classic! If you missed one of our J&J episodes, this one's for you. In this episode, Johnny and Josef guide you through practical tips for maneuvering and managing challenging bag-handling applications.

The Science of Suction Cups

Choosing the right suction cup is the difference between a smooth operation and a costly breakdown. In this episode, we look at why these "pieces of rubber" are actually high-tech tools. We explore how different shapes are the secret to a perfect grip and discover how the right material can make your factory quieter, save energy, and even prevent marks on your final product.

The COAX Technology: Inside the Vacuum Ejector

It’s time to get technical. In this episode, we go inside the nozzle to see how COAX technology utilizes supersonic air and progressive staging to outperform traditional methods. We break down the vital differences between maximizing flow versus maximizing depth, and why distinct industrial environments require specialized, dirt-tolerant designs. From energy-saving valves to "supersonic" geometries, this is your practical guide to choosing the right vacuum engine- ensuring you prioritize the right metrics for speed, efficiency, and grip.
