Gravity Feeders
By elevating components from the hopper on purpose designed cleats / slats, they are then presented to the orientation tooling under the force of gravity. Operating on this simple principle such equipment is very robust and particularly suitable for heavier components. The additional benefit is that of integral storage of components within the hopper.
The gravity feeder discharge can be arranged to either side of the elevator jib, with a range of belt widths from 100 mm to 457 mm and hopper capacities to match.
Ideally suited to plastic, rubber or metal part applications, the standard elevating belt is manufactured from either rigid close link plastic or stainless steel slat band chain and a variety of "pick up" profiles are available.
Finished in either standard paint colours, coated or manufactured from stainless steel the robust construction is of Aylesbury design.
