Vibratory Feeder
A vibratory feeder is a conveying system designed to feed components or materials into an assembly process using controlled vibratory forces, gravity, and guiding mechanisms that position and orient materials. They have accumulation tracks of various widths, lengths, and depths, which are carefully chosen to fit the needs of the application, material, component, or part.
The goal of vibratory feeders is to move, feed, and convey bulk materials while using various forms of vibrations so that the materials are properly oriented for addition to a production line. They are a highly efficient method for increasing the speed of assembly operations and gently separating bulk materials. The guided movement produced by a vibratory feeder is dependent on horizontal and vertical accelerations that produce the exact amount of force needed to put materials in position.
