Follow on Google News | Feeding Parts Effectively and EfficientlyADI Offers Three Suggestions for Optimizing Feeder Performance
1. Stick with the determined feed rate With a lot of contributing hands on a project, it’s easy for the designated feed rate to get skewed along the way. While the part may be able to be fed at a higher rate, it is important to stay near the predetermined rate so the feeder can operate as intended. Compounding a “safety buffer” from the true feed rate requirement can result in unnecessary effort equating to unnecessary cost and possibly overkill in equipment. 2. Operate your feeding system with the shell on the drive unit Always remember to keep the shell on the base unit when your feeder is in operation. Although the shell “cover” doesn’t seem like a significant component of the feeding system, it adds enough ballast and inertia to the vibrating base to noticeably de-tune the system when run without it. Often times, a feeding system will run faster when the shell is in place and secure. 3. Modify parts for straightforward orienting Sometimes it is possible to design or mold the part being fed with a differentiating tab that can make part orientation easier without affecting the functionality of the part.
