High-Speed Parts Feeding & Parts Feeding to Secondary Operations
Jim Powell of Powell Systems, Inc., Fowler, IN, USA, says, “Powell Systems, Inc. supplies Powell Flow- Mation® feeders that support high-speed-oriented parts feeding, automatically. If you make or assemble small parts, a Powell Flow-Mation automatic parts feeding system can help you boost the productivity of your high-speed equipment with integrated automation.
“With our sliding door or drop bottom corrugated steel containers and specially designed positioning stands, parts are automatically fed to vibratory feeder bowls, hoppers or elevators. Your operators never have to manually load parts again. Designed with ergonomics in mid, the Flow-Mation system eliminates unnecessary bending, twisting and lifting to reduce employee fatigue and work-related injuries.
“Also offered are Flow-Mation systems designed to feed parts to secondary operations, automatically. These systems are custom designed and integrated with your production equipment to meet the specific needs of your operation. Each system utilizes gravity flow containers and custom-designed workstations to feed screws, fasteners, stampings, wire products and other high-volume parts to secondary operations.
“Auxiliary equipment such as hoppers, feeders, conveyors and packaging systems can also be included. For more information on Flow-Mation parts feeding systems, visit the website listed below.” www.powell-systems.com
