Product:
1. Electrical contact (28mm x 7mm)
2. Metal insert (metal molded part)
Orientation:
● Bowl Feeder System – Electrical Contact
Components discharged single file, end-to-end, with pins facing down on the track.
● Bowl Feeder System – Metal Insert
Components discharged single file, end-to-end, with the flat face angled away from the bowl at 28.7° from the linear track surface to suit placement into the IMM tool.
Speed:
16 components per minute per bowl
Key features:
● Cylindrical bowl for Electrical Contacts
● Stepped Bowl for Metal Insert
● PU250 polyurethane coating
● Smooth, gentle handling
Solution
This case study covers two vibratory bowl feeders used in an insert molding cell to automate part delivery for the insert molding process.
Bulk Storage Hoppers
Bulk storage hoppers are used to store components and feed them into the vibratory bowl feeders.
Bowl Feeder System – Electrical Contact
The vibratory bowl feeder sorts and feeds electrical contacts, pins down, into a single-file linear outfeed track. At the end of the linear track, a pneumatic escapement separates two electrical contacts for robot pickup. A vision sensor mounted above the escapement checks picked parts for bent pins.
Bowl Feeder System – Metal Insert (Metal moulded part)
The vibratory bowl feeder orients and feeds the inserts, end to end, flat face angled away from bowl at 28.7°, into a single-file linear outfeed track. At the end of the linear track, an electric escapement separates four metal inserts for pickup by the load robot.
