Vibratory Feeder: 70 PPM Custom Scoop Orientation System with Holdback/Release Escapement Feature

🎯 Watch how we solved a complex dual-scoop feeding challenge with our custom 27" vibratory feeder system, achieving 70 parts per minute with consistent orientation. The Challenge: Our customer required both scoop styles to be oriented horizontally, with the handle positioned down and away from the bowl center, exiting through a single horizontal discharge, all at a consistent rate of 70 parts per minute. Our Custom Solution: • 27" vibratory bowl feeder with integrated quick dump feature for fast changeover and jam recovery • Tool steel track paired with inline drive system for maximum durability and smooth part transfer • Holdback/release mechanism with part present sensor ensuring consistent, controlled flow • Photocell shutoff system prevents overfeeding and enables autonomous operation • Lexan dust cover maintains clean work environment and protects parts during operation ⏱️ Video Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 0:08 - Overview of the system 0:12 - Thin down cam thins part level 0:19 - Orienting cam rotates parts 0:22 - Air jets orient parts 0:27 - Selector air jets reject misoriented parts 0:35 - Parts ride the selector rail to confinement 0:39 - Parts enter final select of the bowl 0:48 - Parts enter confinement 0:54 - Overview of the confinement stage 0:58 - Parts travel into the inline and through the high level sensor 1:02 - Parts are metered out through a holdback & release mechanism 1:09 - Overview of the system 1:13 - Outro At Hoosier Feeder, we engineer custom automation solutions for complex part geometries and challenging orientation requirements, from scoops and caps to clips and unique components. 👀 Facing similar part feeding challenges? 📞 Get your custom solution quote: https://www.hoosierfeeder.com 🔔 Subscribe for more automation engineering solutions! ________________________________________ #VibratoryFeeder #PartFeeding #CustomAutomation #FeederSystem #AutomationSolutions #MaterialHandling #InlineDrive #FactoryAutomation #ManufacturingEngineering #PartOrientationSystem #IndustrialAutomation #CustomFeederSolutions #ManufacturingInnovation #HoosierFeeder
