igus Rotary Conveyor, Rotating Felt Disc Feeder

igus®

$7,895.00

igus rotary conveyor with rotating felt disc that feeds, positions, and separates small components through controlled motion. Use it to singulate parts for robotic pickup or line transfer without complex vibratory mechanisms. Modular design accepts screw-mounted baffles and attachments to customize part flow for your application.

igus Rotary Conveyor. Felt Disc Feeder for Small Parts and Robotic Picking:

The igus Rotary Conveyor, model 0-RBTX-BASICS-0039, is a material handling component feeder engineered for singulating and orienting small parts for robotic picking and automated production lines.

Felt Disc Component Feeding System:

This rotating conveyor applies a rotating felt disc to gently agitate and separate small components before downstream handling. The design supports component singulation without the use of complex vibratory or pneumatic feeders. Operators can install application-specific baffles and attachments to guide part alignment and control flow for unique tasks. The modular unit is ideal for automation integrators and machine shops seeking straightforward, reliable feeding of loose or stacked parts compatible with industrial robots including the Dobot MG400 and igus ReBeL series.

  • Diameter options: Ø280 mm, Ø400 mm, Ø700 mm
  • Compatible robots: Dobot MG400, igus ReBeL
  • Feeding method: Rotating felt disc for component separation

Key Features:

  • Enables precise part singulation for robotic picking and automated transfer
  • Customizable with modular baffles and guides for part-specific orientation
  • Simple configuration and integration for education, research, or light industrial use

Applications:

  • Component feeding for robotic workcells
  • Small parts presentation for laboratory automation
  • Pick-and-place systems in assembly lines
  • Flexible singulation for testing, packaging, and educational robotics projects

Comparison with Alternative Feeders:

  • Rotary conveyor: Low vibration, gentle part handling, modular reconfiguration, compact footprint
  • Vibratory bowl feeders: High throughput, suitable for robust parts but noisier and more vibration-sensitive
  • Pneumatic feeders: Suited for high-speed, bulk transfer but require compressed air and are less adaptable for delicate or small components

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • What part sizes are suitable? The igus Rotary Conveyor is designed for small parts that fit within the chosen disc diameter (Ø280 mm, Ø400 mm, or Ø700 mm). Actual part compatibility depends on shape and the selected attachments.
  • How fast does the disc rotate? The standard operating speed is optimized for gentle agitation and consistent singulation, but the exact RPM range depends on unit configuration and throughput requirements.
  • What is the footprint? The overall unit footprint aligns with the selected disc diameter (Ø280, 400, or 700 mm) and modular enclosure.
  • Can it integrate with my robot? The rotary conveyor supports mounting and configuration for popular industrial robot platforms, including Dobot MG400 and igus ReBeL. Integration with other robotic picking systems is possible via modular boundary mounting points.

The igus Rotary Conveyor is a felt disc feeder that singulates and orients small parts for robotic picking and automated production lines. It uses a rotating felt disc to gently agitate and separate components into single-part flow without complex mechanisms.
The rotating conveyor is available in three disc diameter variants: Ø280 mm, Ø400 mm, and Ø700 mm. You choose the size based on your small parts and application requirements.
Yes, the rotary conveyor integrates with the Dobot MG400 and igus ReBeL collaborative robots. It mounts via screw connections to modular limit attachment points for straightforward integration into robotic workcells.
The igus Rotary Conveyor offers low vibration, gentle part handling, and a compact footprint as a low-cost alternative to vibratory bowl feeders with faster return on investment. Vibratory bowl feeders provide higher throughput but are noisier and less suitable for delicate small components.
The rotating felt disc gently agitates components without complex pneumatic or vibratory mechanisms, making it ideal for delicate small parts in pick-and-place systems. The modular design also allows application-specific baffles and attachments to guide part alignment for unique tasks.

Rotating felt disc feeder versus vibratory bowl feeders:

Choose the igus Rotary Conveyor when you need gentle, low-vibration component singulation in a compact, reconfigurable footprint. Unlike traditional vibratory bowl feeders, this rotating felt disc system avoids shock and noise while remaining cost-effective for small-parts automation integrated with collaborative robots.

  • For delicate or small components under robotic picking, the felt disc motion agitates parts into single-part flow without impact stress that bowl feeders can cause.
  • In tight collaborative workcells with Dobot MG400 or igus ReBeL robots, the modular screw-mount design and choice of three disc diameters (Ø280 mm, Ø400 mm, Ø700 mm) adapts to confined spaces where a vibratory bowl would be too large or noisy.
  • For flexible, low-volume assembly or pick-and-place tasks requiring frequent part changeover, customizable baffles and guides support rapid reconfiguration without replacing equipment.
  • Where pneumatic feeders demand compressed air infrastructure, the rotary conveyor operates as a simpler, standalone unit requiring only a motor connection.
