Automatic insert screw thread inserts

Automatic insert screw thread inserts

Designed and manufactured by Automation Technologies Ltd, this machine automatically inserts 8 brass screw thread inserts into the plastics body moulding.

The machine can handle two 'phone bodies every 8 seconds and position the inserts within 0.025 mm. The system uses a vibratory bowl feeder to deliver and orientate the inserts and an integral heater to heat the inserts prior to insertion.

The system utilises a re-configurable controller that can be programmed to position the inserts at any position and to any depth within the moulding.
