This is a short video showing the fine vibration generated by the Afag BF & KLF series drive units.
In this test, the bowl feeder and linear feeder where mounted onto a common aluminium baseplate which was 10mm thick. The entire setup was then placed onto a fairly light weight "ikea" style table.
You will notice that the linear vibrator is screwed directly to the mounting plate without the need for rubber buffer feet to absorb the vibration. This is due to our vibration force compensation principle (see here).
By using this principal, we can generate vibration to feed the components and, almost perfectly negate the excess negative vibration which causes our competitors systems to "wobble". Furthermore, the bowl top and linear tooling can then be mounted with a much reduced seperation gap as the two units are rigid and can not be shaken.
This video shows the vibration force principal in action. You will see the two sides of the KLF Linear feeder working side by side and vibrating against each other.
With the BF series drive unit, the action is virtually the same. The only difference is the two masses work in an anti-clockwise and clockwise direction, whereas with the KLF feeder the two masses work parallel to each other.
We where able to showcase our latest FDA approved, polyamide bowl top at the Medtec exhibition in Birmingham. The pictures opposite show the way we produce the bowl tooling by machining the track and orientation features directly into the material.
