● Stainless steel 304 cylindrical bowl
● Dual flexible-tube component delivery
● Back-pressure bowl tooling
● Controlled, consistent component feeding
The Challenge
The primary challenge of this application is feeding and handling extremely small, delicate components—2mm spherical capsules. Handling parts of this size requires high precision to prevent jamming, damage, or misorientation, while maintaining a consistent and reliable high-speed feed rate.
The Solution
The vibratory bowl feeding system is designed to automatically feed and transfer miniature spherical capsules into two flexible feed tubes.
Handling components just 2mm in diameter requires careful control of component movement and discharge. The bowl is specially tooled to provide back pressure and maintain a consistent supply through both outlets.
Bowl Feeder System
The system incorporates a stainless steel 304 cylindrical bowl, equipped with dedicated tooling to feed the miniature capsules towards two discharge outlets.
An SRC-N 160-2 vibratory drive unit and ESK 2000 controller provide adjustable vibration control to support consistent component feeding.
Dual Flexible Feed Tubes
Two flexible feed tubes transfer the spherical capsules from the base of the bowl into the customer’s delivery system.
Each tube is specified to handle 125 components per minute, providing a combined output of 250 components per minute.
