Buffer module

Overview
The screw buffer module stores and delivers screws within automatic screw feeding lines to reduce feeding interruptions and support high cycle-rate assembly processes.

Key selling points

• Screw buffering to decouple feeder and assembly cycles
• High cycle-rate capability
• Integrated module design to minimize feeding time
• Screw counting for quantity control

Product features & advantages

• Integrated cylinder structure for compact integration
• Module-entrance integration reduces transfer time from feeder to buffer
• High-speed blow feeding into the buffer with head clamping on a slope to protect threads
• Precision-machined, polished internal channels to minimize jams
• Built-in screw counter for accurate quantity control
• Low jamming rate through optimized feeding geometry

Structure
Internal components and flow paths are arranged to ensure reliable accumulation and gentle handling of screw heads during buffering.

System framework
The module integrates into automatic screw feeding systems with pneumatic fittings and tubing for synchronized operation within assembly lines.
