Bowls feeders are commonly used in automated assembly applications to feed and orient parts for presentation to the machine that will perform the assembly task. However, these systems have limitations in terms of flexibility: in this video, we look at how a single flexible feeding system can feed multiple parts.

00:00 | Each bulk feeder repopulates dedicated sectors only when necessary
00:17 | Seven Kilos of parts are fed at one time
00:27 | Flip Unit singulates the parts and changes their orientation
00:37 | The Vision System sends the coordinates to the robot
00:47 | Multiple parts feeding system is ideal for tray loading, kitting, picking and assembly
01:11 | A different surface can be installed for each sector
01:21 | Multiple parts feeding system allows for minimizing investments and optimizing lines. 

FlexiBowl® is a versatile feeding device that integrates easily with any robot or vision system.
A single FlexiBowl® can handle entire families of parts ranging from 1-250 mm to 1-250 g, effectively replacing a whole set of dedicated vibratory bowl feeders.
Its lack of dedicated tooling, combined with its simple and intuitive programming software, allows for quick product changes within the same work shift.
New part teaching and production changeovers can be completed in minutes.
FlexiBowl® is the ideal feeding solution for Automotive, Cosmetic, Electronic, Medical, Toys & Gadgets, Electrical Components, and any other application that requires multiple parts handling and frequent changeovers.
