Unit A 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 123-215, 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.
Unit B Information: This unit is based on the FC-200 Series Part Sensing Feeder Cube®. The start/stop operation of the
output can be controlled with an optional parts sensor. For more information on this unit, refer to the enclosed Adjustments
and Set Up pages. Unit B is interlocked (subordinate) to the operation of Unit A so that Unit B operates only when Unit A
is feeding parts. The interlock can be reconfigured.
Unit C Information: This unit is based on the AB-2 Timer/Logic Board. The Air Blow control board is used for multi-feeder
bowl applications to blow excess parts on a lane back into the bowl. The AB-2 control board can drive the 24 VDC air valves
on 2 lanes, and send an On/Off control signal to Unit A. PNP parts sensors are required for each lane used.
