Bi-Directional Dual Belt Feeder Series
Advanced Automation Solutions Bi-Directional Belt Feeder series, have the abilitity to feed a large variety of parts by the use of a storage conveyor traveling in the opposite direction of a orientor conveyor. The feeder is capable of producing high production rates, with gentle parts handling and low dba noise levels. Our versatile belt feeders are sized and configured to suit your specific requirements. Belt Feeders can be furnished with rubber belt, plastic chain or steel chain with a wide variety of drive options.
Feeders can be furnished in Low Profile or Space Saver configurations. Please view options for each type below.
Low Profile - Bi Directional Belt Feeder with Reservoir Conveyor
Our low profile series belt feeder provides the ultimate solution in producing high production rates, with extremely gentle parts handling and minimal noise level. Our versatile feeders are sized and configured to suit your specific requirements. Belt Feeders can be furnished with rubber belt, plastic chain or steel chain with a wide variety of drive options.
Separate bulk supply loads product into reservoir conveyor as required. Product is conveyed on inclined reservoir conveyor, gently transferring parts on to horizontal orientor conveyor, traveling in the opposite direction. Parts transfer along tooling wall, mis-oriented parts are guided off orientor tooling, gently sliding into reservoir conveyor for part recirculation. Correctly oriented parts pass through orientor tooling discharging off end of orientor conveyor.
Features:
- High Production Rates
- Floor area space saving
- Gentle feed operation (one of the most gentle feeders available)
- Easily accessible adjustable tooling to accommodate a wide range of parts
- Conveyor construction varies dependent upon application (typically Belt, plastic or steel Chain)
System Benefits:
- Economical automation
- Quiet non-vibratory operation
- Reduces manual labor Options:
- Allows increased production
- Eliminates hazardous manual handling/loading
Options:
- AC Motor 120Volt or 230/460 Volt 3-Ph drives
- DC Motor adjustable speed control
- Right hand or left hand discharge
- Manual purge gate to quickly empty the system for change over
- Enclosure package to help prevent contaminates
Space Saver Bi-Directional Belt Feeder with Elevating Belt Storage Hopper
This newly designed BI-Directional Belt Feeder is unique in today’s parts feeding market, designed to compete with vibratory bowl feeders. Our spacing saving Belt Feeder meets the high production rates that parts feeding demands. Featuring gentle product handling with low noise level and reducing overall plant floor space. With our integral storage bin area the need for an additional bulk storage area is eliminated.
Our spacing saving Belt Feeder has the ability to feed a large variety of parts by the use of a cleated inclined storgae conveyor traveling in the opposite direction of a orientor conveyor. Our versatile feeders are sized and configured to suit your specific requirements. Belt Feeders can be furnished with rubber belt, plastic chain or steel chain with a wide variety of drive options.
Parts are stored and elevated on an inclined cleated conveyor, transferring parts onto a horizontal orientor conveyor traveling in opposite direction. Parts travel along tooling wall, mis-oriented parts are guided off orientor tooling, falling back into product storage area for part recirculation. Correctly oriented parts pass through orientor tooling discharging off the end of orientor.
Advanced Automation Solutions unique Storage Feeder series provide a continuous flow of parts at various heights to supply numerous processing systems. All of our storage feeders are sized and configured to meet your specific application. With our large selection of standard bin sizes and versatile drive options any production rate or storage capacity can be combined.
Feeders can be furnished for bulk elevating applications or easily configured with a vibratory orientor attached. Please view options for each type located on their individual web pages.

Storage Feeders with Vibratory Orientor
Advanced Automation Solutions Storage Elevators can easily be combined with one of our standard tooled linear vibratory drive units to provide a versatile part feeder. All units are sized and configured to meet your specific application. Choices of light or heavy duty vibratory drives with tooling length ranging from 18” to 60” are available. Mis-oriented part recirculation can be accomplished by a gravity return chute or for low discharge elevations and gentler parts handling a belt return conveyor can be furnished. Parts are elevated from storage bin and metered into the vibratory orientor tooling. Correctly oriented parts pass through tooling and discharge at your specified height. Mis-oriented parts are returned to storage bin for recirculation by a gravity return chute or belt return conveyor.
