Piab announced expanded use of its piSafe vacuum automation product family in automotive fabrication shops. The products target press shop and body-in-white environments where safe handling of heavy, sharp and high-value components is critical. Designed for robotic and automated lines, the system integrates check valves and monitoring options to maintain grip during power or pressure loss, reducing the risk of dropped parts and unplanned downtime. It provides reliable, secure handling of large body panels, structural parts and assemblies even under high speeds and dynamic loads. Clear separation of safety-related gripping functions from non-safety functions simplifies validation and risk reduction in automated cells.
