In industry there is a wide variety of processes that require continuous feeding where the connection between one machine and another must be uniform and synchronized in order to increase efficiency.
Vibratory feeders (also known as circular feeders, vibratory bowl feeders or vibratory feeders) regulate the infeed of material and allow the product to be conveyed to another destination in a synchronized manner.
At TAD, our bowl tops and drive units are expertly designed to work in perfect harmony, delivering exceptional performance for a wide range of components across various industries. We accommodate diverse shapes and sizes made from various materials, ensuring our solutions meet the unique demands of every application. Trust our systems to enhance your production efficiency and reliability.

A vibrating feeder consists of a circular vibrator and a bowl. The electromagnetic vibrator is the driving element that propels the parts forward, both in the selection units and in the autonomy or link-lung units.
A vibrator consists of an assembly formed by two elastically connected masses (active and reactive) and has a natural frequency that responds in an oscillatory manner, according to a resonance curve, to the action of a frequency equal to the excitation caused by the magnetic field by pulsing one or more electromagnets.
For a comprehensive overview of the functionality and benefits of a vibrating bowl feeder, check out our blog post: “Bowl Feeder: Everything You Need to Know About Its Functionality”. Discover more about how these systems work and their role in optimizing production processes.
The Bowl Top is usually made of stainless steel and has an inner lining in synthetic fabric or a special polished finish to help the traction of the garments, to avoid damaging them in the case of delicate garments and to reduce the acoustic level. We have 3 types of Bowl Tops which are cylindrical, conical or staggered in shape.
What we call the sorting unit comprises a circular vibrator which impresses a circular advancing trajectory on the pieces, to whose active mass is attached a Bowl Top equipped with a helicoidal ramp for the ascent of the pieces until they are evacuated, already positioned.
At TAD, our bowl tops are meticulously crafted to ensure seamless integration with your production line. Each bowl is designed to maximize efficiency, precision, and reliability, delivering consistent part orientation and feeding.

At TAD, the manufacturing process starts with a thorough understanding of the client’s production requirements. Our our skilled technical-commercial specialists have in-depth conversations with customers to gather information about the type of process they run and their specific feeding system needs.
Once the client provides details about their production line, our highly experienced technical sales team prepares a custom proposal. This proposal identifies the system that best suits the client’s project, taking into consideration all the variables involved in their process. The goal is to offer a feeding solution that is not only functional but optimized for efficiency and reliability.
Once the proposal is approved, we seamlessly transition into the design phase. At TAD, customization is woven into the fabric of our manufacturing process from the outset. Every detail of the bowl feeder—ranging from the bowl design to the feeding mechanisms and material selections—is meticulously crafted to meet the client’s unique specifications.
Our engineers conduct a thorough analysis of the client’s requirements, taking into account factors such as the types of parts to be fed, desired production speed, and orientation needs.
Utilizing cutting-edge software, we develop a bespoke design that optimizes part handling and flow, ensuring that the system is specifically tailored to fit the exact demands of the production line. This meticulous attention to detail guarantees a smooth and dependable feeding process.
To ensure durability and long-lasting performance, we carefully select premium materials, such as stainless steel, for our feeders’ construction. These materials are chosen for their exceptional strength, resistance to wear, and ability to withstand the vibrations essential for efficient operation.
Once the design is finalized, our skilled technicians use state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, and precision welding, to bring the design to life. This ensures that every component is crafted with accuracy, allowing for smooth operation and minimal maintenance.
After assembly, each bowl feeder undergoes extensive testing to ensure it meets our strict quality standards. We simulate real production conditions, checking for part orientation accuracy, feed rates, and vibration consistency. This ensures that every feeder we deliver is reliable, efficient, and ready for immediate integration into the client’s production line.
At TAD, our relationship with the client doesn’t end with delivery. We offer ongoing support to ensure that the bowl feeder continues to meet the needs of the production line as it evolves.
