What kind of mechanical equipment is an automatic feeder? In fact, the automatic feeder belongs to a kind of peripheral equipment of the punching machine. It is mainly used for the automatic transportation of metal coils. The automatic feeder equipment is controlled by the servo system and driven by the motor to form automatic feeding. The feeding is accurate and stable, and the feeding process does not require manual intervention. Only You need to manually input parameters according to the required instructions. Feeder manufacturers are here to bring you more detailed information on automatic feeders.

       1. Structural advantages of automatic feeder

      It adopts Japanese servo motor, and imported PLC and touch screen control system for feeding configuration. Through the PLC programming controller of the automatic feeder, the feeder is controlled to accurately feed the punch, and the automatic clamping and automatic blanking process can be realized with the punch. Compared with manual feeders, the automatic feeder process has higher production efficiency, saves labor costs, and purifies the workshop environment.

 2. The operating principle of the automatic feeder

      There are many different types of automatic feeders, and the operation methods are also different, but the whole is similar, and the feeding purpose is the same. For example, the most common automatic feeder is the roller feeder. It is composed of five parts: transmission rod, bracket and control circuit. The material distribution device discharges the bar material to the conveying wheel one bar at a time, and the conveying wheel sends the bar material to the grinding area. When working, the bar material is above the conveying wheel. When the bar material is worn and rotated, the friction force of the bar material is reduced in the state of the rotation of the conveying wheel, thereby improving the abrasion accuracy.

     Third, the use of automatic feeder characteristics

      1. The automatic punch feeder is easy to operate and has high precision. When operating, as long as the feed amount is set on the touch screen, the servo system automatically determines the feed length each time according to the pre-set value. The operator only needs to watch whether the machine is working normally without adjusting each time.

      2. The automatic feeder has good shock absorption, low vibration and noise during production, and is commonly used in long bar material and precision workpiece processing. At present, the roller-type automatic feeder, which is widely used at home and abroad, can be used with all kinds of centerless grinding machines. It can complete the automatic feeding work with the processing machine tool. After the bar material in the storage box is transported, the machine tool automatically waits for feeding. Tell the operator to refill.
