Model Information: The Autotune Series of Variable Frequency Feeder Cubes® generates an output frequency for feeding
that is independent from the power line frequency. An optional vibration sensor, P/N 6476.3, can be used to maintain the
vibratory feeder at a constant feed rate. The start/stop operation of the output can be controlled with an optional parts
sensor. For more information on this control, refer to the enclosed Adjustments and Set Up pages.
