NC Servo Feeder
The Gripper Feeder is designed for high-precision coil feeding applications, especially where scratch-free and non-marking surface quality is essential. Featuring a clamp-style feeding mechanism and servo motor control, it ensures accurate and stable feeding of aluminum, stainless steel, and other delicate coil materials in progressive stamping lines.
Product Characteristics
The Gripper Feeder is designed to handle coil widths up to 300mm (customizable) and material thicknesses ranging from 0.2mm to 2.0mm. It is widely applied in industries such as metal stamping, metal product manufacturing, hardware appliances, and automotive parts. When combined with an uncoiler and leveler, it forms a complete feeding line and is compatible with various machines including hydraulic presses, shearing machines, forming machines, and laser cutting systems.
NC Servo Gripper Feeder supports multi-stage feeding for complex stamping operations, making it ideal for use with multi-engineering progressive dies and multi-station tooling to meet diverse and customized production requirements.
Driven by a high-precision servo motor, it ensures accurate feeding and positioning. The integrated PLC system and touchscreen allow for intuitive operation, real-time monitoring, and quick parameter adjustments. The system is safe, easy to operate, and minimizes setup time—greatly enhancing productivity and efficiency on the shop floor.

The NC Servo gripper Feeder is driven by a high-quality brushless servo motor, significantly reducing feeding distance adjustment and testing time.
It features a high-sensitivity decoder that ensures precise operation and enhances feeding accuracy.
The timing belt transmission system eliminates gear backlash and wear, operates quietly, requires no lubrication, and promotes safety and environmental protection.
The internal motor design helps prevent damage during transportation, loading, and unloading.
The electric control box comes with an independent operation panel, allowing for flexible operation from different positions. It is time-saving, waterproof, and dustproof, with high-strength materials, excellent electrical conductivity, and extended service life.
An emergency stop button is installed separately on the control box to ensure safety and reliability. This design minimizes the need to open the main control box, thereby protecting the operation panel effectively.
The NC Servo Gripper Feeder utilizes clamping plates to grip the edges of the coil material and feed it forward and backward according to the preset length. This gripper-type feeding method effectively prevents surface scratches or damage, making it ideal for handling delicate or high-value materials.
The moving components are built with high-quality linear guide rails and precision ball screws to ensure stable, smooth motion and maintain high product quality throughout operation.
Crafted from alloy material with a hard-oxidized finish, the feed cylinder is riveted to ensure no leakage. Precision CNC-machined from solid aluminum, it features a finely ground inner wall for smooth, jam-free performance. It delivers high efficiency, high strength, and long-lasting durability, making it ideal for various working environments.

FAQ
Q: How do I determine the right feeder size for my production line?
A: The feeder size depends on the material width, thickness, and feeding step distance required by your stamping press. Choosing the correct specifications ensures smooth operation and prevents feeding errors or misalignment.
Q: What factors should I consider when choosing a servo feeder machine?
A: When selecting a servo feeder, key factors include feeding accuracy (±0.05mm or better), maximum feeding speed (e.g., 20m/min), material compatibility (stainless steel, aluminum, etc.), load capacity, and control system (PLC or touchscreen). Ensure the machine matches your stamping process requirements.
Q: How long does it take to receive the feeder machine after placing an order?
A: Lead time for delivery typically ranges from 4 to 8 weeks depending on customization, production schedules, and shipping location. Once your order is confirmed, we will provide a more precise delivery estimate.
Q: What are your payment terms?
A: We accepts T/T payment, 30% deposit and 70% balance before shipping
Q: How often should I perform maintenance on my servo feeder machine?
A: Routine maintenance should be conducted weekly for basic cleaning and lubrication, while a more thorough inspection should be done monthly to check for wear on rollers, belts, and electrical components. A full servicing is recommended every 6-12 months depending on usage intensity.
Q: What are the most common issues with feeder machines, and how can I troubleshoot them?
A: Common issues include misalignment, inconsistent feeding accuracy, or motor failure. Check for loose bolts, dirt buildup, or software calibration errors. If problems persist, refer to the user manual or contact technical support.
Q: Do you provide on-site repair services if my machine breaks down?
A: Yes, we offer on-site repair services for major issues, along with remote troubleshooting support for minor problems. For urgent cases, we can dispatch a technician within 24-48 hours, depending on your location.
Q: What's the package of your coil feeding machines?
A: For the coil feeding equipment that go LCL shipping, We will use plastic films wrap on the equiment, and then fix it into a wooden box.
For the large coil lines that go FCL shipment, We will fix each part with ropes on the shipping container and then wrapped them with plastic films.
