Feeding screws at 60 parts per minute for EGO Elektrokomponente
A bowl feeder that orients screws with washers and feeds them to the electrical switch assembly line at EGO Elektrokomponente in Zagreb, with a capacity of 60 parts per minute on an AFAG drive.
Screws with washers had to be fed to the line, oriented, at high speed
EGO Elektrokomponente assembles electrical switches on a line that requires a continuous supply of screws with washers, oriented and ready to be picked. Manual or unoriented feeding could not keep up with the required assembly cycle time.
The requirement also included the ability to handle different screw lengths without building a new bowl for every part variant.

We built a bowl feeder whose bowl orients the screws with washers and delivers them to the discharge track, ready to be picked. The system is powered by an AFAG vibratory drive.
The same orientation principle works for different screw lengths, so the bowl does not have to be redesigned for every part variant.
