Studies on Vibratory Feeder

Factors Influencing Conveying Velocity of Prismatic Parts on a Vibratory Feeder

Vibratory feeders are commonly used in industries for part feeding. There are several factors that affect the conveying velocity of parts on the vibratory feeder. Among these, the critical factors such as excitation frequency, amplitude of vibration, mass of part, co-efficient of friction and Length-towidth (L/W) ratio of the part were considered for experimental studies. The percentage of infl...

Aerodynamic and glottographic studies of the laryngeal vibratory cycle.

Vibratory Manipulation

Vibratory manipulation is the use of repeated impacts, typically at high frequency and low amplitude, to manipulate objects. Although this sort of manipulation is commonly used, e.g. in parts feeding systems, there has been relatively little work on formally analyzing the mechanics. In this paper, we focus on manipulating a planar slider repeatedly tapped by a vibrating manipulator. We find tha...

On the Rectification of Vibratory Motion

This paper establishes a theoretical framework for analyzing and classifying actuators that generate their output by rectifying small-amplitude mechanical vibrations, such as might be generated by piezoelectric elements. These ideas are of special interest when designing for microfabrication, because motors based on these principles: (a) can generate translational output directly without use of...
