Automatic feeder is often used as the starting equipment of automatic production, which is very common and plays an important role in the automatic production. And they can also be used as an automatic feeder to connect upstream and downstream production automation equipment, such as stacker, rotary and push feeder, vibrating bowl feeder and so on. At present, many equipment in the packaging machine industry have achieved standard automatic mass production, but the corresponding feeder can not achieve this large-scale production, because most of them need to be customized according to the actual products. so their performance can often affect the normal use of the entire production line.

The automatic feeder is very important as an auxiliary equipment

In the process of packaging, due to the need to consider the promotion or transportation of products, it is often necessary to combine products together, such as boxes, bottles, paper towels, cans, etc., whether using shrink packaging or carton packaging, the best way is to pack multiple of them together.
At this time, additional procedures are needed to arrange or stack them, and the automatic feeder will be of great help. It can replace manual work and accurately stack the above products together, and then transport them to the next step of equipment.

Therefore, after selecting the appropriate automatic feeder, the enterprise does not need to arrange manual work to do the product turnover, but only needs to seamlessly connect the feeder and the corresponding conveying line. in this way, the front-end production equipment and the back section of the packaging machine can be perfectly connected, so as to achieve the real sense of automatic production, so as to achieve full automation and greatly improve efficiency.

Automatic feeder is also often used as the host machine.

In some printing industries and carton packaging processes, if there is no automatic feeder, then the production efficiency will be disastrous; for example, in the bagging of books, the friction feeder will perfectly distribute the whole mule books into a book and then enter the packaging machine. If it is distributed manually, it will require a lot of labor and a high error rate in the high-speed printing industry. And in the carton packing, if there is no related convey feeder, then the production line will not be able to complete the automatic design.

High cost performance of automatic feeder

At last, the performance-to-price ratio of automatic feeder is very high. Sometimes we can see that the feeder can be assembled with a simple structure with some motors and cylinders, such as stacking feeder and pushing feeder. Although many equipment are commented as automatic production equipment, they are still unable to achieve complete unmanned production without automatic feeder, so automatic feeder plays an very important role in automation.
