In most of the cases, it is better to have feeder bowls coated. Coatings can be either polyurethane spray coating, pasting of sheets on the bowl surface, teflon coating etc. The best solution lies in polyurethane spray coating. The advantages are firstly, in case of metallic components, the Noise Level can be drastically reduced by eliminating the Metal to Metal contact between the metallic bowl surface and the components. Another major problem faced by customers is of feeding oily components. Oily components reduce / eliminate the friction between the components and the Bowl track. As Vibrators work on the principle of Friction, this results in the components slipping and hence they are not able to feed properly. Proper type of coating can eliminate this. It is better to have a rough coating in case of oily components while in case of dry components, it is beneficial to have smooth coating. This improves the friction between the components and bowl, resulting in better movement of parts forward. Previously, PVC or polyurethane sheets were pasted to the bowl surface to act as lining. However, these have many disadvantages. First and foremost, in case the adhesion is not proper at any place, air bubbles get created and the whole sheet gets removed. Even if any adhesive is used, it gets removed in cases where there is oily residue on the components.
