Piab piCOMPACT10 Vacuum Generator Review: Specs, Price and Applications
The Piab piCOMPACT10 is described as the first manifold-mounted, functional ejector system, based on MICRO COAX cartridges, the world's smallest multistage vacuum ejector.
It operates at low feed pressure, delivers three times more vacuum flow than similar products and reduces energy consumption by 30 to 50% compared with traditional ejectors. Four versions include options for very low feed pressure or extra-deep vacuum.
Quick Verdict
A compact, energy-saving ejector system that gives small grippers strong, fast vacuum with less air.

Design and Operating Principle
MICRO COAX cartridges pack multistage ejection into a very small insert. Manifold mounting combines several functions in one compact unit.
Higher flow means stronger grip and faster pick-up, which reduces product damage and waste, while quicker release improves cycle time.
Low-pressure operation supports stricter safety requirements and reduces air consumption.
Integration and Selection
Choose the version for your feed pressure and vacuum level. Mount near the cups to minimise hose volume.
Integrate into existing lines without modification.
