Vibrating Bowl Feeder V1.0 - Tooled for M3 Hex Nuts by VikingNZ
by Thingiverse
Last crawled date: 3 years ago
I wanted to develop a 3d printable bowl feeder that was cheap and easy to make.
The industrial units are super cool - but just way too expensive and specialist for all you inventors and makers at home!
This wee unit was my first design in producing an open source alternative - it's not there yet, but will be soon.

You can see it in action on my YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXfcDdvP9jU
So this really is a V1.0 - it works, but not reliably.
I really wanted to use an off the shelf DC motor to energize it, but the results were a bit disappointing.
The industrial units use a linear vibrator, and for good reason... This thing is noisy and temperamental.
To make this run, I needed to stick the base down to the bench with double sided foam tape - screwing down too rigidly gave vibrations that were too aggressive and threw parts from the track.
The DC motor was controlled via an el cheapo 12V PWM controller from eBay and was a right pain to get dialed in correctly.
If you want to have an experiment with this, I would suggest:
Scale the Vibro Spring parts to make different thicknesses (and therefore stiffnesses)
Investigate a linear vibrator moving up & down - scrap the DC motor idea.
I will be releasing a V1.1 once it is working - you can follow me here or on YouTube for all the updates!
As far as I can see, this is the first working 3d printed feeder of it's type uploaded on the internet - pretty damn cool really. If you think this is a neat project, and do end up experimenting please share your results for everyone to see!
