Definition of Vibratory Bowl Feeder
What is Vibratory Bowl Feeder?
A vibratory bowl feeder is an automated feeding and orienting system that uses vibration to move and sort parts or components. It is a bowl-shaped container that is mounted on a base and vibrates at a high frequency to sort and move the parts along a track or channel. The vibration is created by an electromagnet or a series of electromagnets that are mounted underneath the bowl and energized with an alternating current. As the electromagnets turn on and off, the bowl vibrates, causing the parts to move and orient themselves in the desired position.
How Does a Vibratory Bowl Feeder Work?
The operation of a vibratory bowl feeder involves several components working together. The main components are:
Bowl – A bowl-shaped container that holds the parts.
Base – A support structure that holds the bowl and the electromagnetic vibrator.
Electromagnetic Vibrator – A device that produces a vibratory motion.
Control Unit – A device that controls the vibration frequency, amplitude, and direction.
When the system is turned on, the electromagnetic vibrator produces a high-frequency vibration that causes the parts to move along the bowl’s track. The vibration frequency, amplitude, and direction are controlled by the control unit to ensure that the parts are moved and oriented correctly. As the parts move along the track, they are sorted and oriented in the desired position, ready for further processing or assembly.
Applications of Vibratory Bowl Feeder
Vibratory feeders are employed across multiple industries, such as pharmaceuticals, automotive, electronics, food, Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), packaging, metalworking, and others, including glass, foundry, steel, construction, recycling, pulp and paper, and plastics. They provide a cost-effective alternative to manual labor, saving manufacturers both time and labor costs. Choosing a parts feeder requires careful consideration of various factors, such as the industry, application, material properties, and product volume.
