How to Choose NC Servo Feeder?

Roller feeder and NC servo feeder are the two most commonly used feeding equipment for automatic processing of coil materials.

The roller feeder is only suitable for the output shaft of various types of punching machines. The feeding width and feeding step are strictly limited. Usually, the material width is greater than 500mm or the feeding step is greater than 300mm, and the roller feeder cannot be selected.

However, the roller feeder also has its advantages, that is, it has a high-speed model, and the maximum feeding speed can reach 500 times/min, with a high-speed punch.

The NC servo feeder is not only suitable for all kinds of punching machines, but also can be used with various processing equipment such as hydraulic presses, shearing machines, laser cutting machines, etc. The feeding width and feeding step distance are unlimited, and the degree of customization is high. It uses proportional roller feeding. The device should be wide.However, the CNC servo feeder is not suitable for high-speed feeding due to the response time of the servo motor.

Roller feeder and servo feeder have different advantages and disadvantages respectively. It is difficult for customers to understand the difference between the two. How to choose a servo feeder suitable for their own production?

1. The type of NC feeder is selected by the thickness of the material. At present, the NC feeder produced in China is divided into three types: thin plate 0-2.2mm, medium plate 0-3.2mm, and thick plate 0-4.5mm according to the thickness of the material. , Relatively speaking, the thicker the thickness that can be achieved, the higher the price. ​​

2. Choose mechanical relaxation and pneumatic relaxation according to the different speed and matching equipment. The pneumatic NC feeder realizes the compression and relaxation of the roller group through the scaling of the cylinder fixed on the inner wall of the feeder. When it is in use, it can be matched with more equipment, not only can it be used with punching machine for punching and feeding, but also can be used with shearing machine for material blanking production. However, the reaction time of pneumatic relaxation is relatively long, so it is not suitable for short-step high-speed feeding production.

Roll feeder: Compact yet Quick
Roll feeder is suited for use in conjunction with presses that have output shafts. It does, however, enforce strict limitations on feeding pitch and width. Roll feeder typically bow out when the feeding pitch is longer than 300mm or the material breadth is greater than 500mm. However, it excel in terms of speed; certain types can feed at up to 500 strokes per minute, making it ideal for high-speed punch presses.NC Servo Feeder: Unleashing VersatilityNC servo feeder is more versatile than their Roller equivalents. It works well with a variety of presses and also combine easily with shearing machines, laser cutters, and hydraulic presses, among other processing equipment. NC servo feeder is the pinnacle of versatility since it has no restrictions on feeding width or pitch and a preference for customization. Roll Feeder: Mechanical ProficiencyRoller feeders, which are driven by a mechanical transmission system, require careful adjustments. Adjusting feeding time and pitch necessitates carefully and technically fastening the eccentric disk on the press output shaft.NC Servo Feeder: Simple Touch OperationIn comparison, NC servo feeder brings simplicity. With its 7-inch touchscreen, feeding pitch, frequency, and other settings are easily adjustable. With NC servo feeder, accessibility is paramount, serving both beginners and experts.
