Spring Feeder Vibro SF

For springs with different shapes

Do you have springs of different shapes and sizes?

Do you receive them in bags or in big boxes, packed tightly together during the transport?

Do you think there are no reliable solutions, forcing your operator to separate them manually?

 

It’s because you haven’t tried the Vibro Spring Feeder yet.

The problem, the solution

VIBRO SF is a system that disentangle springs through the simple vibration in the vibrating bowl and joining a series of successful expedients, as the control during the loading phase of the product to be handled and oriented. It may seem incredible, but the main moment is here, at the start of the process. If the amount of springs put inside the bowl is exaggerated, the system struggles to move them forward and bring them into the ideal condition to open, being forced to drag along tangles that become increasingly compacted. On the other hand, it seems counterintuitive to put a small amount into a large bowl, as it feels like leaving it too empty. Instead, the combination of controlled loading and detangling solutions inside and outside the vibrating bowl proves to be a winning formula. So what should you do? The key lies in our expert advice.

What springs is it suitable for?

VIBRO SF is designed to automatically handle springs of different sizes and very different geometries.

Conical? Asymmetrical? With wires of different thicknesses? We’ve already studied and untangled them all.

Springs size range:

Size
Lengths: from 5 to 50 mm
Flatten
Diameter: from 5 to 25 mm

Suitable for use in country with:

Done-circle
230/50–60 Hz (with suitable controllers)
Done-circle
110/60 Hz (with suitable controllers)
Vibro SF
How it works:

Vibro SF is developed from the study and the management of the automatic loading of the system, which allows most of the springs to separate from the initial phase, as soon as they fall in the vibrating
bowl.

It works solely by means of vibration and use of simple air bellows, which direct jets of air against the springs, causing them to open and separate.

Yes, it is. However, it is not possible for them to spill out of the bowl or get stuck on the way out.
There is, in fact, a mechanical caliper that monitors the passage of the springs, reliably ensuring that only a single piece passes through.

Yes, all you need to do is replace the caliper and ensure that a greater number of air jets are applied in a specific manner.
However, this is not a one-size-fits-all solution, which is why our consulting and tests form the basis of any feasibility assessment.

Process

The process

Step 1

Automatic loading of the system and springs falling into the vibrating bowl

Step 2

Vibration and air bellows directing jets of air against the springs, causing them to open and separate

Step 3

Control of the passage of only single springs

Available configurations

Basic system, or turnkey option,
you choose the solution that you prefer.

Vibro SF is adjustable on the basis of your needs, your layout and your budget.
For this reason it can be provided in the arrangement that is better for your requirements.
We can complete the basic version with:

Loading hopper

to dose the springs inside the vibranting bowl

Supporting bench or plate

to integrate the system in your machine

Insulators

to minimise the noise and protect the system to potential interferences

Buffering system

that can be a rilsan tube, or a vibratory linear feeder, necessary when you have high feed rates and to ensure that springs are always available in an organised manner.

Final escapement

to provide the single spring exactly with the established frequency for your machine cycle

Electric panel with PLC

to manage the system automatically and have the turnkey option.
