How to Quickly Resolve When the Automatic Coil Feeder's Feeding Mode Fails?
September 20, 2025
Automatic coil feeders are essential for ensuring a smooth and continuous production process. When switching to automatic feeding mode, if the feeder only performs a single feed action after pressing the start button and stops, this can disrupt production and cause delays. In such cases, the manual mode may still work, but the automatic feeding function is not functional, affecting the continuity of production. As a professional manufacturer of stamping press feeding equipment, Youyi Precision provides the following solutions based on technical experience.
If you are using a single-step feeder, check if there are any settings for the feeding length or the number of steps beyond the first step. If so, reset the length and step count to zero for all steps except the first one.
If the feeder stops due to reaching the set count, reset the count to zero. If the count has not been reached, check for other potential issues such as:
Misconfigured settings
Faulty sensors or count detectors

If the previous solutions do not resolve the problem, inspect the stamping press for mechanical issues. Specifically, check if the cam output is obstructed or if there has been improper maintenance. Loose or disconnected automatic feeding signal wires can also cause this issue.
When the cutting function is enabled, check the shear delay and cutting time settings. If they are set too short, adjust the timing to prevent feeding interruptions.
If your automatic coil feeder fails to switch to automatic feeding mode, try following the troubleshooting steps above. If the issue persists, contact the manufacturer for professional assistance and repairs.
