• Introduction:- A parts feeder is a machine that orients parts. In this presentation we present a programmable parts feeder: a mechanism that can be programmed to feed any planar polygonal part.

Components of programmable part feeder
• Feeding mechanism: A device that can orient parts under software control.
• Planning algorithm: A method for transforming a geomertrical part description into a programme for the mechanism.

Mechanism A device that can orient parts under software control. We use a modified parallel-jaw gripper. The mechanism requires one controlled degree of freedom to orient the gripper, and one uncontrolled degree of freedom (such as a pneumatic actuator) to open and close the jaws.

Advantages of programmable parts feeder
• The key advantage of a programmable parts feeder is flexibility.
• Flexible manufacturing systems can be used for a variety of products.
• Flexibility reduces the number of machines required and lead time for manufacturing new products.
• A programmable parts feeder can be reprogrammed rather than physically modified when part geometry changes.

Conical bowl feeder• Introduction:- Vibratory bowl feeders are used to
feed individual component parts for assembly on industrial production line.
• They are used when bulk package of small components must be fed into another machine one-by-one, oriented in a particular direction.
• Vibratory feeders are self-contained systems, comprising of a specially tooled bowl feeder that orients the components.

Construction and mechanism• The bowl has a helical track climbing the inside wall.• By giving the bowl a circular vibratory motion, parts
dumped into the bowl will climb the helical track in single file.
• As parts climb the track, they get orientated, and deflect disoriented parts back into the center of the bowl.

• They will gradually be shaken so that they are all aligned. They thus leave the feeder's conveyor one-by-one, all in the same orientation.
• This conveyor then leads directly to the following assembly or packing machine.

Accessories • Coating: Bowl feeder coatings minimise wear and
tear, reduces noise and damage to parts.• Sound enclosure/cover: A foam-lined structure that
absorbs the noise created by the vibratory feeder. • Base plates: Enable easy mounting of the drive unit
to the machine bed.• Hopper: Large, bulk container that stores material
and regulates parts flow into the vibratory feeder system.

Applications • Vibratory feeders are utilized in many industries
including, pharmaceutical, automotive, electronic, food, Fast Moving Consumable Goods (FMCG), packaging and metal working industries.
• It also serves other industries such as glass, foundry, steel, construction, recycling, pulp and paper, and plastics.
• vibratory feeders offer a cost-effective alternative to manual labour, saving manufacturer’s time and labour costs.
