1 Safety instructions 1.1 Notes on symbols and instructions Symbols: Assembly and commissioning must be carried out by qualified personnel only and according to these operating instructions. Please observe the meaning of the following symbols and notes. They are grouped into risk levels and classified according to ISO 3864-2.
1.2 Basic safety information This operating manual provides the basis for the safe use and operation of the bowl feeder. This operating manual and, in particular, the included safety instructions have to be ob- served by all individuals working with and on the bowl feeder. In addition, all rules and regulations concerning the accident prevention applicable for the site of operation are to be complied with.
1.4 Notes for Pacemakers and Defibrillators Afag vibration conveyors are tested in accordance with regulation 15 of the German Statutory Accident Insurance Association [Deutsche Gesetzliche Unfallversicherung, DGUV] (previously BGV B11 of German Accident Prevention Regulations). The permissible values of exposure area 2 are not exceeded, therefore no measures are required pursuant to Section 4 (2) of the DGUV regulation 15.
2 Description of the device 2.1 General In combination with a conveyor bowl, the bowl feeder is used for storing, transporting, separating and arranging bulk material. The material is moved by vibrations. Parts are moved by micro throws in the feeding direction. The mass of the bowl should not exceed the value specified in chapter 2.4 as this cannot ensure optimum transport behaviour.
The magnet, connected to the support, creates a force which attracts reps. releases the oscillating plate dependent on the oscillation frequency of the power supply. The pulsating movement of the oscillation plate causes the material to jump from the rail at each oscillation and is conveyed as a result of the angle of inclination of the leaf springs.

3 Assembly instructions 3.1 Transport WARNING Improper use of transport means (industrial trucks, cranes, tech- nical aids, sling gear etc.) may lead to bruises and other injuries. Required behaviour: ▪ Observe and follow the transport and maintenance instruc- tions ▪ Proper use of transport means CAUTION During transport, the bowl feeder must only be held by the base.
3.3 Requirements for the bowl In order to achieve optimum transport behaviour, the following basic requirements must be fulfilled: 1. Combination bowl and WV must match each other 2. Selection resistant construction of the bowl 3. Control elements in the bowl must be oscillation resistant 3.4 Information for the construction of selection elements Selection elements, which serve the sorting of the transported work pieces in the correct orientation, must be of light but stable manufacture.
4 Operating instructions 4.1 Correlations between the transport speed and the WV spring packages In principle, the WV and bowl are adjusted in the standard configuration. This means that all oscillating elements of the system are optimally designed. The following factors however influence the combination WV/bowl: a) the parts to be conveyed (size, weight, shape, material and condition) b) the conveying capacity c) the quantity filled...

The result: Transport speed is reduced a) insert additional springs b) at first, one spring in one spring package c) if this is insufficient, then one spring with spacer plate is to be inserted into the individual spring packages one by one Transport speed is increased a) remove springs b) the procedure and sequence are the same as for inserting springs...

Soft-starting, all IRG and MSG types can be mounted in various different ways and offer extra controls for photoelectric barriers, initiator elements, or extern 24VDC signal. For a detailed description of the controllers refer full-range catalogue from AFAG GmbH. Third-party controllers can also be used as long as they meet the technical requirements.
7 Disposal WF feeders that are no longer in use should not be disposed of as complete units but dismantled into separate materials and recycled. Non-recyclable components must be dis- posed of correctly. R01.0 16/05/2019 Page 21...
