Advantages of a sound enclosure cover

  • High accessibility for service and maintenance – optimized operating concept enables quick servicing
  • Electrical interlock ensures safe production processes and prevents operating errors
  • The special TPP version of the sound enclosure cover ensures seamless and secure integration of pick-and-place technology.
  • Reduction of noise emissions during the feeding process

Steep hopper SB – extends refilling cycles

By combining with a steep hopper, the filling volume of the feeder is increased. This offers the following advantages:

  • The number of refills of feed elements is reduced
  • This results in increased efficiency, especially for lines with high part consumption

Gentle feeding with BR-A brake

The BR-A brake ensures controlled reduction of feed element speed over long feeding distances – ideal for fast cycle times.

  • Gentle conveying even at high speed and high kinetic energy
  • Virtually wear-free brake – ensures longevity and reliability of the feeding system
