Problem:
Manual sifting and sorting of fiber and plastic parts for rejects and waste material was slow and inefficient.
Solution:
Inspection speeded up and efficiency improved at the Iten Fibre Co., Ashtabula, OH, USA, when
Vibratory Feeders were installed. The trays have various mesh size screens. Only good parts are carried to the end of the feeder trays to packaging operations. The gain in efficiency was put at 300 to 400 percent.
