Aerospace
Aerospace is a high-tech industry that manufactures airplanes and related parts. Very large parts and sections with complex geometries require vacuum solutions for handling or clamping during machining.The production process is distinguished by a high degree of precision and safety. Piab has a long history of working with regional and global aerospace customers.
Reducing injury and increasing productivity are often accomplished with the aid of ergonomic lifting devices. This type of equipment allows one or two operators to lift, move and manipulate large and small objects with vacuum. Unlike a robot, the lifting device requires an operator to position the part being handled. Reliable safety ...
In several industries there are clamping fixtures where suction cups are used to hold parts during assembly, forming, cutting or other machining operations. In many cases the cycle times are long and an energy-saving system is therefore recommended.

Vacuum is used in test equipment for printed circuit boards to press the board against the electrical test points. The vacuum creates an even pressure/force over the entire board. Vacuum and suction cups are also used to clamp/hold parts in several industries during quality control by measuring the critical dimensions of ...
Many parts and systems must be airtight to operate correctly. Vacuum is a fairly common method of conducting leak tests. When vacuum is applied, any leaks are detected by small changes in pressure. Leak testing is typically performed both in the assembly of systems as well as in the manufacturing of parts/sub-components.
