Vibratory and Centrifugal Feeder Bowls Vibratory parts feeder or bowls, as they are commonly referred to, are still considered to be the work horses of the parts feeding industry after decades of use. They are the most flexible, efficient and cost effective platform available, able to feed and orient a wide range of part profiles at high rate requirements. Vibratory parts feeders can be configured as single or multiple line applications and designed to tolerate the most severe industrial environment.
Centrifugal or rotary parts feeders, operating off of mechanical motion instead of being powered by electromagnetic coils as vibratory parts feeding systems, are at their best in high rate applications feeding simple parts requiring little or no pre-orientation of the part being fed to meet the specified rate.
