Bowl feeders keep component assembly lines buzzing

摘要

Let's not underestimate the role of bow! feeders in automated assembly lines, delivering individual parts as and when they are needed. Individual component parts come in a vast array of different shapes and sizes from miniature components, used in electro-mechanical assemblies, to large plastic mouldings which may be used for underground drainage systems. In each case however, when it comes to the final assembly process, it is essential that each individual part arrives at the correct time, in the correct position and also in the correct orientation. The consistency, reliability and speed of the parts feeding systems if often a critical element in the production and assembly process.
