-Feeders: The feeder works by taking up the sheet metal supplied by the decoiler or straightener and regulating the exact quantity that should be furnished to the press at all times. By using CNC technology (numeric computer control) the process can be parametrized so that it is possible to program maximum speed, acceleration / deceleration and with the position in either millimetres or inches. To see figure
-Feeder/levelling machine: This machine is an evolution of the above and today most feeders incorporate the levelling function. As its name indicates, its purpose is to level out the sheet metal that, due to the slightly convex morphology, it adopts on the coil. Therefore, it is necessary to flatten the sheet metal so that it is absolutely level on reaching the press. Otherwise, the quality of finish produced by the feeder-levelling machine would not be obtained.

Blank loaders
to feed single presses and press lines. The cut blanks are delivered to the blank loader as a stack. After blank isolation the top blank of the stack is lifted by suckers or magnets to be transported to the transfer equipment or to a conveyor belt.
If required we can guarantee a production without interruption during stack exchange.
The transfer operation of the blanks from stack to the transfer system or conveyor belt can be realized with feeder or robot. In both cases, a continuous production are possible.

- ensures reliable, long lasting performance with minimal process downtime
NEW - O-Ring Sealed Inline Drive
- ensures dust-free operation and makes screw shaft alignment easy after changeout or cleaning.
Teflon® Rear Seal Standard

Unique Agitator/Conditioner Screw
- completely fills the feed screw for high accuracy of ± 1 to 1 1/2%
Interchangeable Screw/Tube Combinations
- available in 1/2" to 6% sizes and permit feed rates from 0.05 to 550 cu. ft./hr.
Wide Range of Models
- includes space-saving mini, sanitary, and combination feeder/conveyor units
All Metalfab Volumetric Screw Feeders feature Metalfab's rugged design and unique agitator/conditioner screw. In operation, the agitator/conditioner screw begins to move materials forward in the feeder's trough. Since the agitator/ conditioner screws are larger in diameter than the metering (feeding) screw and of wire configuration, they carry a greater capacity than the metering screw, allowing material to flow through and around it. This 360° influence of material forces entrained air up and out of the metering area and force feeds material into the flights of the metering screw to ensure they are completely full with uniformly dense material.

DESCRIPTION:
Conceived by specialists in the automation of work on press, the automatic chargers Norda bring an answer to all the requirements:
- High Production pace.
- Tooling and Staff safety.
- Accuracy of mouvement
- Greasing and separation of the blanks.
- Reliability of the production.
- Simplicity of the adjustments.
NORDA builds its chargers in series under patent and sell them in the whole world. The hundreds of solved cases and a close cooperation with the customers make of it the leader of the automation of the presses in Europe.
FEATURES:
The charger is a specialized robot which supplies the presses intelligently. The horizontal adjustments of translation for the loading of the presses vary according to the models from 300 to 1100 Misters the charger takes in the store a sheet metal or an already worked part and carries out of it the transfer to a station of centering where the part is positioned precisely. At the same time, the part previously centered is taken and transported until on the outiil. The charger control then the press and starts again a new cycle.
The movement of the mobile arm of the charger traverses a trajectory in "U" reversed. The movement is carried out by a device actuated by ensuring motor reducer raised speeds, of the accelerations and decelerations controlled with a constant precision.
The charger also carries out controls in the course of cycle: catch of the part, ejection out of the tool, sunchronism with the press...
The flexibility is ensured by a system of vertical regulation of the charger allowing the fast adaptation to a change of tool.

CDSF7-PR is a special edition of the CDSF6. To prevent the excessive spring effect of the coil, usual for the compact lines, we add a pinch-roll to pull the coil from the braking decoiler. This system is appreciated in Germany.
- The CDSF7-PR is a compact line consisting of:
- single motorised decoiler: work at variable speed with a loop control to guarantee a soft movement
- straightener/feeder: with 2 rolls pinch-roll Ø 180 mm
- Straightener station with rolls at big distance, adapted for medium width strip - 9 rolls Ø 90 mm, to guarantee the necessary planarity.
- The line requires 8 meters of space.
- The CDSF7-PR is the best solution in case you don't need high speed (max 90 spm) but you have few space. The line have a competive price.
