As industrial robots become ever faster and more accurate, they need automated systems upstream and downstream to keep up. ARS Automation this month announced the launch of FlexiBowl 200, it latest flexible feeding system for modern manufacturing.
The FlexiBowl 200 combines compact design and performance, making it suitable for handling small parts ranging from 1 to 10 mm (0.03 to 0.3 in.), claimed the Arezzo, Italy-based company.
“The FlexiBowl 200 is a game-changer for manufacturers focused on space optimization,” stated Chris Round, vice president of sales for North America at ARS Automation. “We know that our customers need solutions that not only reduce footprint, but also maintain high performance, and this product delivers on both fronts.”
FlexiBowl 200 improves on previous parts feeders
ARS said its new feeder includes the following features:
- 25% shorter than its earlier models
- 50% slimmer for better space optimization
- Maintains the same feeding area with a much smaller footprint
“This cutting-edge design makes the FlexiBowl 200 perfect for manufacturers aiming to maximize workspace without sacrificing efficiency,” asserted the company.
It added that the feeder should prove useful for manufacturers in industries where both precision and space are at a premium, such as automotive, electronics, medical devices, and consumer goods.
