DIY Vibratory Bowl Feeder

Hey everyone, welcome back to my post and channel again. If you are looking for a reference project related to vibratory bowl feeder machine then this is the right place for you to have a lookt at.

This project is the final group project in a course “Design for Assembly and Manufacturing” at RMIT University Vietnam. This is the long and lengthy project of 5 students in my group so I'm going to represent them to show you guys what our work is and of course I do acknowlege equally everyone's contribution as well the author of the GrabCAD for 1 of his reference parts in our bowl feeder design.

Anyway, let's start with the project for a bit, basically most of them are 3D printed (physical build), we use the magnet pull-release mechanism + inclined angle of spring packs. In this time, we use 4 spring packs ( this type is more efficient and more stable than the 3 spring packs). You can check the bowl's components in those design file, they are all in there. You can print and customize freely basing on your project's features.

That's the mechanical build, about electrical and programming. We use Arduino Uno R3, an IBT2 motor driver, a 12V-30A power supply, 80 kg electromagnet, and couple plates of strike plate. The programming part you can totally refer to Chatbot like GPT, all you need the code to perform is yielding the sine wave signal for the magnet to pull and relaese continuosly so that the vertical vibration is applicable
