The 900 Servo feeder conversion has been developed to enable mechanical feeders to be converted to full electronic control, thus enhancing productivity.

The feeder assemblies use precision servo drive systems, combined with the latest generation of ballscrews and specially designed arcual shears, to produce high quality gobs at all production speeds. The cascade bowl is recommended (where appropriate) to help ensure thermally homogenous gobs.

The servo shearing and plunger mechanisms have been designed so that they can all be mounted as direct replacements for the existing mechanical mechanisms, to suit any shearing angle, in order to simplify the conversion.

Revolving tube mechanisms also available.

FEATURES
  • Speeds up to 200 cuts per minute
  • Servo driven arcual shears for single or double gob operation
  • Servo and ballscrew driven air balanced plunger mechanism
  • Programmable gob forming

BENEFITS
  • Upgrades BH-F 70 or 900 series feeders to full electronic control. Also available for most non BH-F feeder types.
  • High quality glass gobs
  • Increased productivity
  • Can interface will most electronically controlled forming machines
  • Reduced down time at job changes
  • Available for most larger feeder types
