Description
Vibratory Feeder Controller
The FEEDRkon – Vibratory Feeder Controller regulates the output supplied to an electromagnetic feeder coil to achieve controlled vibration intensity and consistent material flow. It is suitable for applications where repeatable feeding, smooth start/stop behavior, protection of the feeder coil, and simple operator control are important.
Why Choose FEEDRkon – Vibratory Feeder Controller?
- Stable feeder output using adjustable amplitude & frequency settings.
- Simple local operation through a 7-segment display & 6-keys keypad.
- Protected operation with over current, over voltage and short-circuit fault detection.
- Remote control capability for integration with PLCs, machine panels & automation systems.
- Soft start and soft stop functions to reduce mechanical shock and sudden current surges.
Typical Applications
- Bowl feeders and linear feeders
- Packaging and assembly machines
- Weighing, dosing and batching systems
- Part orientation and component feeding
- Material handling equipment requiring controlled vibration
Feature Highlights
Amplitude Control
- 0–100% vibration amplitude control for accurate feeding rate adjustment.
Frequency Setting
- 30–140 Hz programmable output frequency to match feeder design and process needs.
Soft Start / Stop
- 0–4 s ramp-up and ramp-down settings help prevent sudden mechanical shock and abrupt current surges.
On / Off Delay
- 0–15 s programmable delays support machine sequencing and controlled process timing.
Operator Interface
- Display enables viewing of amplitude, output current & status, with user and admin level parameters.
Output Current Monitoring
- Output current can be viewed from the display for commissioning and service checks.
Current Trip Protection
- 0–10 A adjustable current trip setting protects the feeder coil & controller against overload conditions.
Local / Remote Operation
- Operate from the front keypad or enable remote start/stop through external input signals.
Remote Amplitude Input
- 0–10 V DC remote amplitude control enables PLC or analog signal-based feeder control.
Fault Diagnostics
- Dedicated fault messages simplify troubleshooting for over current, over voltage & short-circuit conditions.
