1 . Descriptions:

Vibratory bowl feeders are fascinating pieces of equipment found on production lines, distinct from other machinery. Unlike traditional equipment with detailed technical specifications, bowl feeders rely on trial and error, touch, and feel to achieve the desired component feeding, orientation, and feed-rate.

When a business approaches us with a feeding requirement, they provide a sample component. We then use a test bowl similar to their specifications and experiment until we achieve successful feeding. Only after that can we focus on orientation and increasing the feed-rate.

Vibratory bowl feeders are widely used in industries like automotive, pharmaceutical, electronics, and packaging. However, ensuring correct component orientation has been a time-consuming and challenging task for engineers. They often resort to mechanical solutions, spending hours grinding metal to create catch points.

Fortunately, vision sensors offer an excellent alternative. These sensors can be quickly set up to detect and reject components that are incorrectly oriented. Without the need for external triggers, vision sensors can identify misoriented parts at rates of up to 6,000 parts per minute.

In addition to orienting parts, vision sensors provide other valuable functions. They can verify if the part is correct, identify defective components, and even count parts to monitor feed rates. This technology significantly enhances the efficiency and accuracy of vibratory bowl feeders in manufacturing processes.

3 . Principle of ​ Vibratory Bowl Feeder :

The basic concept of a vibratory feeder can be experienced by pouring sand through a funnel and tapping it gently to ensure continuous flow. Vibratory feeders, regardless of their size, operate on the same fundamental principle.

These feeders utilize gravity to pull dry material downward and employ vibration to move the material from side to side. Typically, only dry material is used in this type of machine since it may not move in a fluid motion and requires assistance from vibrations.

In a vibratory feeder, large quantities of material are introduced through a cone-shaped opening at the top and flow out from the narrow bottom. A pill counter serves as an excellent example of a vibratory feeder. In this case, a large quantity of pills is dumped into the top opening of the machine. Gravity pulls the pills downward, while the vibrations facilitate smooth flow, preventing congestion or blockage in the feeder. Once the correct number of pills is reached, the machine stops and resumes operation when a new bottle is ready to be automatically filled.
