Vibratory system feeds parts, no
changeover
A vibratory part feeding system with two outlets feeds engine valves of 20-50mm diameter and lengths between 30-200mm without any changeover.
Elscint Automation, the ISO 9001:2000 certified leading vibratory feeding equipment manufacturer (having CE marking) from India has introduced a vibratory part feeding system for feeding of engine valves having dia from 20 mm to 50 mm and length between 30mm to 200mm with two outlets The equipment has been designed in such a manner that all sizes between these dimensions can be fed without any changeover

Stacking machine developed for bearing parts
Useful for stacking items like bearings cages/bearing washers and such other components the stacking machine is for automatically feeding components into a vibratory bowl feeder.
Sorter and grader does not bind or grip parts
Designed to feed and sort and grade components having cylindrical and spherical geometry the rolls of this unit do not bind or grip the parts and are extremely sensitive to fine tolerances.
This is available in two models, namely, model 400 HD and model 630.
The vibratory bowl feeder is used for feeding and orienting the engine valves.
Thereafter, through a pneumatic take-up system, the engine valves are transported up to a height of 2m from the ground level for further feeding.
Speed of between 40 to 100 pieces/min per outlet can be achieved depending upon the sizes of the engine valves.
The system results in a smooth flow of components without any starvation to the next machines.
This equipment results in enhanced productivity of the machines to which these feeding systems are linked up.
The biggest advantage of this system is loading of the heavy engine valves at a height of just 500mm, usage of the bare minimum space and flexibility of feeding various sizes of engine valves through the same feeding system.
The advantage of having two outlets is that two machines can be fed through a single vibratory feeding and pneumatic take up unit thus saving not only on space but also on the price of the feeding systems.
Elscint can even sell only the vibratory bowl feeder or only the pneumatic take up unit.
This feeding system is available in PLC and non-PLC (electrical control) versions.
As all Elscint standard parts are used, the delivery times are very low and the cost is very reasonable.
