Intelligent and efficient feeding

DEPRAG presents eacy feed, the new generation vibratory spiral feeder, at the MOTEK 2016

Reliable feeders are a vital requirement in attaining the best possible system reliability. But DEPRAG has proven that their feeders can deliver on a lot more than reliability with their new breakthrough. eacy feed, (Efficient Assembly Communication Yield) the new generation vibratory bowl feeder, is extremely energy-efficient and is Industry 4.0-capable. The basis for the intelligent and sustainable production of tomorrow is here today.

Increased environmental awareness and growing energy costs have become a core issue for companies, bringing with them a demand for improved efficiency and energy savings. DEPRAG has met this demand for efficiency and sustainability with their innovative solution eacy feed. The inventive and effective utilization of physical responses has enabled the reduction of energy costs by around 80 %.

The drive of the new eacy feed works using 24-volt oscillating magnets, whereby the maximum power consumption is dramatically reduced. The 24-volt technology is trouble-free even if there is only a poor power supply available – independent from network voltage or frequency. The use of a wide range power supply enables global application of the product. There is no need for differing power supply units. The customer therefore saves on time and money where otherwise they would need varying versions or country-specific adaptations.

Flexible use: automated or handheld

Whether used in assembly systems within complex automated production lines or for manual use when screwdriving with handheld screwdrivers – eacy feed precisely and reliably supplies connection elements. If eacy feed is used in conjunction with the control and operating unit DPU (DEPRAG Processing Unit) an additional industrial demand is fulfilled: Communication capabilities for Industry 4.0 and Smart Factory.

The use of TCP/IP network protocols allows access to the eacy feed controller’s network from anywhere in the world. All settings can be displayed or adjusted once a connection is established with the smart eacy feed using a smartphone, tablet or computer. The operator can for example, alter the frequency and amplitude settings via their smartphone so that function of the feeder can be guaranteed from any location.

Simpler for the fitter and operator

The corresponding software PFCi100 has been developed alongside the control unit DPU for maximum user friendliness. The parameters required for the device can be simply and easily adjusted using the slide bars on the touch screen – there is no need to access the feeder’s sequence controller.
