Parts Feeder,Parts Feeders,Vibratory Parts Feeder

 Parts feeder is the machine that orient parts so that robots or other automated processes can capture and use or package the parts or components. Applications range from packaging pills in the pharmaceutical industry to sparkplug production in the automotive industry. The main difference between parts feeders is their method of directing the feed.

Vibratory parts feeder are the most common type of parts feeders. The bowl has a helical track which climbs the inside wall of the bowl. Parts are dumped into the bowl that vibrates and turns. As the parts climb the track they encounter obstacles that orient the parts in a certain way. So that they can be easily used further down the line.

Centrifugal rotary feeders use a bowl that spins and forces parts to the outside of the bowl. At the outside edge of the bowl, the crusher parts are channeled into receivers when the parts are in the right orientation. From the receiver, they go onto a track that moves the parts to the next stage of production. Centrifugal feeders are usually faster and less noisy than vibratory feeders. They also tend to mar parts less than other types of feeders.
