Stainless Steel Bowl Feeder / Vibration Feeder

Materials for Vibratory Bowls

1. Main Bowl and Track Materials

• Stainless Steel
  • Types: SUS 304 is most common; SUS 316 is used for higher corrosion resistance.
  • Переваги: High strength, corrosion resistance, non-magnetic, easy to clean.
  • Applications: The standard choice for most industrial bowls.
• Aluminum
  • Переваги: Lightweight, lower cost, easy to machine.
  • Disadvantages: Less durable and wear-resistant than steel.
  • Applications: For lightweight parts or where weight is critical.
• Mild Steel
  • Переваги: Lowest cost.
  • Disadvantages: Prone to rust; requires coating.
  • Applications: Prototypes or low-cost, short-term use.

2. Surface Treatments and Coatings

• Teflon/PTFE Coating
  • Переваги: Very low friction, non-stick, protects delicate parts.
  • Applications: Plastic, plated, polished, or easily scratched parts.
• Polyurethane Coating
  • Переваги: Wear-resistant, elastic, reduces noise.
  • Applications: For heavier parts or noise reduction.
• Rubber Coating
  • Переваги: High friction, best for noise and vibration damping.
  • Applications: For very smooth or light parts.
• Chrome Plating
  • Переваги: Very hard, smooth, and wear-resistant.
  • Applications: For feeding steel parts.
• Abrasive Blasting/Brushing
  • Переваги: Creates a uniform matte finish to moderately increase friction.
  • Applications: For slippery or lightweight parts.

In summary, stainless steel is the preferred main material, while the surface coating is chosen based on part characteristics and process requirements.
