In this video, we are showing WEBER's ZEL 240 Step Feeder. In the feeding world, most of the time a vibratory bowl is the most common fastener type which can be loud to feed and drive but this particular unit as you can tell is a lot quieter, you can talk over it.  If the fastener is sensitive as far as the coating; maybe it's a painted fastener where it can’t vibrate the entire time this is a perfect solution. Adjusting the linear track is what vibrates on the step feeder and we escape them one at a time and blow feed to our screwdriving unit. 

- The ZEL feeds screws, nuts and pins and is gentle on the material
- A low-vibration feed track, which minimizes vibrations, enables processing of surface-coated and sensitive parts
- The system allows cycle rates as low as 0.8 seconds
- Integrated sensors ensure high process reliability
