High-Mix / Low-Volume versatility without retooling
The FeederX station was designed to meet modern production challenges, where flexibility and short production runs are key. The system can handle components of almost any shape, material, and size. Changing the product mix does not require any physical or mechanical modifications to the station – switching to a new part is completely programmable in just a few seconds, making FeederX an ideal tool for optimizing low- and medium-volume production processes.
Vision-Ready Modular Feeder
FeederX is an advanced mechanical base for the Flexible Part Feeding station. Designed for immediate integration with external vision systems (2D/3D vision), it features a compact housing, standardized communication ports, and an integrated backlight option, enabling rapid implementation of part contour recognition and localization functions by host cameras.
An advanced tossing system at an affordable price
FeederX proves that advanced parts feeding systems don't have to involve huge financial outlays. The device offers an innovative, high-performance component feeding and separation mechanism. Thanks to its optimized design and excellent price-to-performance ratio, the feeder allows for drastically reduced investment costs (ROI) and operating expenses, while maintaining the full efficiency of more expensive industrial solutions.
FeederX – Advanced Flexible Feeding Technology
In an era of short product runs and frequent changeovers, traditional feeding systems become a bottleneck. FeederX eliminates this problem. It's an intelligent vibrating system that, thanks to advanced control, allows for the precise separation, orientation, and positioning of complex-shaped parts.
Thanks to its compact all-in-one design , FeederX integrates with your vision system in moments to create a complete Flexible Part Feeding station.
Why FeederX?
FeederX is an advanced part feeding system based on omnidirectional vibration technology. Unlike traditional feeders, FeederX does not require the creation of dedicated paths for each part type. Thanks to variable vibration frequency and amplitude, the device can orient parts in a way that is ideal for vision systems and robots.
Main Features and Benefits:
Multidirectional vibration: Ability to move details in any direction on the surface, as well as toss them (flip function) to change the page orientation.
Quick Changeover: Switching from one part to another is done by changing the program in the software, without the need to physically modify the device.
Part Protection: Gentle vibration operation minimizes the risk of scratches and mechanical damage to components.
Integrated Backlight: Backlight capability allows vision systems to instantly recognize part contours.
Why choose FeederX?
Eliminate Clogs: Vibration algorithm prevents parts from clogging in corners.
Compact Design: All control electronics are enclosed inside the red housing, which saves space in the control cabinet.
Ease of Integration: Interoperability with any robot controller (Fanuc, KUKA, UR, ABB) via standard industrial protocols.
