Cut To Size Plastics’ quieter, more wear resistant and cleaner vibratory bowl feeders for production automation processes are custom-engineered to the needs of individual, using CTS’s Wearlon family of hard-wearing cast polyamides as an alternative to metals.
The Wearlon family – incorporating the globally proven LiNNOTAM range of cast polyamides from international manufacturer and fabricator of engineering plastics Licharz – is suitable for OEM use and clean and green metal replacement in applications involving hygienic and durable transmission of mechanical force, movement of industrial components and minimising friction in production and sorting processes.
The family is outstandingly suitable for vibratory bowl feeders which are the most common device used to feed components in industrial assembly automation applications including pharmaceutical, automotive, electronic, food, Fast Moving Consumable Goods (FMCG), packaging and metalworking industries.
It also serves other industries such as glass, foundry, steel, construction, production of fasteners, recycling and sorting, pulp and paper, and plastics Vibratory feeders are self-contained systems, comprising of a specially tooled bowl feeder that orients the components, a vibrating drive unit upon which the bowl feeder is mounted and a variable-amplitude control box.
