1 . Descriptions:

Our step feeders offer significant advantages in feeding small cylindrical and spherical parts. They operate quietly, save space, and handle parts gently. We provide various configurations, from standalone units to fully equipped feed systems.

Using a step mechanism, our feeders lift bulk parts from the integrated hopper bin. The step thickness is carefully chosen to lift a single row of parts. Once at the top of the step stroke, the parts drop onto a linear feeder for further orientation, which can be a vibratory inline, belt conveyor, or air track. In cases where parts are improperly oriented and ejected, they can be returned to the bin using gravity slide, air track, or conveyor.

Key features include a vertical step configuration that reduces footprint and resistance, simple air-powered operation, and an integrated stainless steel hopper bin for part storage. Our step feeders operate quietly due to the absence of vibration, resulting in minimal part abrasion. They handle parts gently, lifting a single row from the bin and performing final orientation on the linear feeder. This makes them ideal for fragile parts. Moreover, our step feeders are extremely durable, requiring minimal maintenance.

In summary, our step feeders provide an efficient solution for feeding small cylindrical and spherical parts, offering quiet operation, space-saving design, and gentle handling.

3 . The Best Parts to Feed Using a Step Feeder :

When selecting parts for feeding with a step feeder, several factors come into play. The primary consideration is the size and shape of the part, as step feeders are designed for round, cylindrical, or spherical parts like springs, tubes, washers, and nuts. It is essential to ensure that the parts fall within these specifications.

The material of the part and its interaction with the step feeder is another important factor. Metals are well-suited for step feeding due to their low noise characteristics. However, plastics or composites can also be fed successfully if they possess sufficient stiffness.

Additionally, the production volume of the parts and the required feed rate should be considered. Traditional step feeders typically have a single-lane linear track output, enabling efficient operation at a relatively fast pace. However, if continuous motion is necessary, alternative part feeding systems may be more suitable.

Step feeders are reliable and efficient methods for distributing parts in automated processes, ensuring consistent feeding.
