Product descriptionDesigned to be paired with EasyDriver screw feeders, the SCREW SUPPLY SYSTEM collects and dispenses a controlled number of screws directly into the operator's hand, reducing errors, simplifying tasks and increasing productivity.
Benefits- Automatically supplies the operator with the correct number of screws
- Eliminates manual picking from boxes or containers
- Reduces cycle time at manual screwdriving stations
- Prevents screws from falling on the bench or into components
- Improves ergonomics by reducing repetitive movements and fatigue
- Decreases the risk of omissions and assembly errors
- Reduces continuous operator monitoring (mental workload, cognitive ergonomics)
How it worksThe Screw Supply System receives screws from the feeder and stores them in a dedicated chamber. When the operator's hand approaches the pickup area, an optical sensor detects presence and triggers release of the programmed quantity of screws directly into the palm. An integrated LED in the pickup area indicates system status:
- Steady green: pickup available
- Flashing green: waiting for pickup confirmation
- Steady yellow: screw feeding in progress
- Flashing red: rejected pickup
- Off: system inactive
Complete configuration- EasyDriver screw feeder
- Interface between feeder and Screw Supply System, mountable on the side to reduce footprint
- Screw Supply System for controlled hand dispensing
- Customization kit matched to the screw used, including dedicated components
Operating modes- MANUAL: maintains a fixed number of screws per dispense with adjustable settings; offers high operational flexibility and reduced cycle time.
- AUTOMATIC: fully automates screw dispensing sequences with configurable quantities per assembly cycle and full integration into the production flow; requires correct program settings between the control unit and the feeder PLC for consistent operation.
Applications- Assemblies requiring a fixed number of screws
- High-repetition manual workstations
- Processes demanding high operational reliability
- Applications requiring Poka Yoke control
- Production lines focused on ergonomic improvement and error reduction
