What Is a Washer Feeder
The washer feeder takes messy, unorganized washers, lines them up in the same direction, and feeds them precisely to the next step in the production process. It uses electromagnetic oscillation to create regular vibrations, making washers in the bowl climb up the spiral chute in order. A sorting device lines them up properly, then they move along in a fixed direction.
BBF has designed and manufactured washer feeders for over 20 years, and they are used in all kinds of industries, including automotive, electronics, hardware, medical devices, and more. They help production lines run efficiently with fewer workers, and customers around the world keep giving them good feedback.

Key Features of Washer Feeders
Feeds with ±0.02mm accuracy, making sure washers sit exactly right and cutting down on production mistakes.
Can feed up to 300 pieces a minute, and runs nonstop 24/7.
Works with washers of different materials (metal, rubber, plastic) and various specs, so it fits all kinds of production needs.
It can be equipped with a PLC intelligent control system. Core functions are one-button, so workers can learn to use the washer feeder quickly.
Characteristics of Different Washer Feeders
Metal Washer Feeder: Made for stainless steel, iron, copper, and other metal washers. The washer feeder uses wear-resistant material to stop metal scraping from messing up feeding accuracy.
Rubber Washer Feeder: Tracks have anti-slip treatment. This keeps rubber washers from slipping or piling up while feeding, so they don’t get deformed.
Plastic Washer Feeder: Plastic washers are light and easy to build up static. So the track gets anti-static treatment to make sure feeding goes smoothly.
What details are needed to customize a washer feeder?
Washer specs: Inner diameter, outer diameter, thickness (down to 0.1mm), material, weight per unit, any irregular parts (notches, bumps), and if the surface has oil or static.
Production needs: Target feeding speed, whether it needs to connect with other equipment, and installation space size.
Special requests: Dustproof, waterproof, or resistance to high/low temperatures.
Is the washer feeder loud when running?
BBF washer feeders keep noise below 75 decibels. If your workshop needs quieter operation, you can add a soundproof cover to get noise under 60 decibels.
