Computer integrated selection and sequencing of modular orienting devices for vibratory bowl feeders

The role of part orientation in automatic assembly is the key to automatic assembly. Often, vibratory bowls have been used to successfully align parts into the correct orientation for subsequent assembly operations. However, the present trend towards flexible, small batch production has rendered exp...
