Coils power up vibratory feeders

The Reomagnet is billed as the most advanced electromagnetic feeder coil available today.

REO electromagnet coils are used in vibratory parts feeding processes were material is fed automatically.

The driving force for the vibratory feeder machines are electromagnets, switching on and off rapidly with AC current.

The 1530-1 coil uses a lamination stack of 2 x 1.25in with a 3/8-24 tapped backplate on 2.5in centre.

The performance of the magnet is ensured by the temperature class of the wire, potting material, magnet wire sizes and turns.

An electromagnet works on the principle that an electric current not only allows electrons to flow in a circuit but also generates a small magnetic field.

The magnetic field is controlled by the air gap setting of the I lamination.

This is the parallel distance between the magnet and I measured at rest.

Generally, the airgap setting will be 0.030 to 0.120in; however, the wider the gap the higher the current.

Overcurrent saturation of the electromagnet will cause thermal runaway and affect performance.

REO-USA has a new line of electromagnetic coils for vibratory feeders.

The coil, the Reomagnet is an excellent choice for maximum vibration and efficiency power usage.

The Reomagnet is billed as the most advanced electromagnetic feeder coil available today.

REO claims its engineering encompasses the very best inductor, insulation class and energy usage.

Various performance tests including current over temperature rise, hipot, induction and thermal runaway demonstrate the Reomagnet has a distinct advantage.
