Introducing piCOMPACT®10X SMART, added functionality to a small footprint ejector

piCOMPACT®10X SMART is a compact, efficient, and intelligent ejector that enables you to take the next step in production control and ease of use. Based on COAX® technology and integrated IO-Link technology, piCOMPACT®10X SMART offers enhanced flexibility, quicker installation, and improved customization to fit your needs.

Building on the air-driven, multistage ejector piCOMPACT®10X, it comes with integrated controls such as on/off valve, blow-off valve, vacuum switch, and energy-saving function, and is built on a configurable platform, making it easy to customize. The upgraded SMART version piCOMPACT®10X SMART also includes smart features that enable predictive maintenance in addition to special preventive features like Leakage Warning, Performance Monitoring Timers, and Vacuum Cycle Counter.

piCOMPACT®10X SMART is perfect for advanced packaging applications within industries such as pharma and electronics, helping producers to quickly and easily realize complex, yet tidy, smart systems.
Key features that add value:
• A configurable vacuum ejector based on COAX® technology with integrated controls, providing a highly energy efficient and reliable vacuum flow.
• IO-Link technology offers simplified and cheaper installation with easy set-up and less cabling.
• Performance and process data from sensors in, for instance, pumps can be monitored in real time using the IO-Link interface.
• Stackable (manifold mounted) units of between 3 and 8 ejectors share a common IO
• Link interface, as well as port and exhaust for compressed air, enabling easy cabling and tubing.
• Specialized software packages and application examples are available from Piab with add-on instructions and libraries of data sets for PLC programming in robots from market-leading brands.

FAULHABER MICROMO - Impressive accuracy through the latest chip technology

With the launch of the IEP3, FAULHABER expands its product line with an incremental encoder which, thanks to the latest chip technology, achieves a very high resolution and accuracy. With a diameter of just 8 mm, the IEP3 is very lightweight and compact yet still offers a resolution of up to 10,000 lines per revolution - made possible by the latest chip technology with high interpolation. In the standard version, the resolution is freely programmable from 1 - 4,096 lines per revolution. Moreover, the chip technology that is used ensures a high positional accuracy of typically 0.3 °m as well as a high repeatability of typically 0.05 °m thanks to accuracy compensation.
