Before You Start
As-Built Documentation
This manual does not contain as-built documentation. Obtain as-
built documentation from your direct supplier. If you purchased
your tooled feeder directly from Hoppmann Corporation, you will
automatically receive as-built toolin and chan eover
documentation in your System Operations Manual.
Tools You Will Need The model FR-20 and FR-30 feeders are offered in both ANSI and
metric versions. For maximum compatibility, ANSI units are
classified as “soft ANSI” construction, meanin that metric threads
and hardware are used throu hout. Both metric and ANSI units
require metric tools for repair and/or adjustment. If your direct
supplier tooled your metric feeder with ANSI hardware, you will
need ANSI tools as well.
Any part of the feeder that touches your parts has been precision
tooled to match your parts. Do not move tooling or change feeder
settingsexceptasdirectedinthismanual,yourSystemOperations
Manual or by your direct supplier. You may void your warranty
and negatively affect the performance of your feeder.

Feeder Description & Specifications
Overview of the FR-20 & FR-30
FR-20 vs. FR-30 The
FR-20 & FR-30
Centrifu al Feeders unscramble, feed and
orient product. Simply put, it delivers ali ned product. Except for
obtainable rates and the size of product, the FR-20 and FR-30
function identically. Generally, the FR-30 is used to handle lar er
product or achieve hi her output rates.
Operation Step 1ÑThe Feeder Accepts Your Product. Every FR-20 and
FR-30 operates in the same basic way. The feeder accepts product
from a separate bulk supply hopper or prefeeder. Product drops
randomly into the bowl, a few at a time. (Shibuya Hoppmann
centrifu al feeders function best when product is carefully metered
from bulk by a prefeeder.)
Step 2ÑThe Feeder Loads and Qualifies Your Product. After
droppin into the bowl, product in the desired orientation is
pushed up the stationary ramp. This process may be assisted in
some applications by compressed air. After the product has been
pushed up the ramp, it is loaded onto the movin rim of the bowl.
The rim moves the product past mechanical, pneumatic and/or
optical qualifiers which reject product that are not in the desired
orientation. Improperly oriented product are recirculated.
Step 3ÑThe Feeder Delivers Your Product. Finally, product
moves off the bowl's rim and out of the feeder in the proper
orientation, in a rapidly movin and in a randomly spaced stream.
Shibuya Hoppmann centrifu al feeders deliver product almost
immediately, so parts simply don't have time to et scuffed up.
Rate Shibuya Hoppmann feeders typically handle product at rates
between 20 and 2000 parts per minute. Your particular product’s
characteristics and your desired production speed will affect the
output rate.

Safety Precautions
2
Warnings & Cautions
Turn Off Power! Before servicin , make sure you have turned off
compressed air and electrical power in a way which prevents
accidental reactivation. Padlock and clearly ta the appropriate
electrical and pneumatic disconnects. Lockout/ta out procedures
are covered in United States Code of Federal Re ulation (CFR)
Title 29 Part 1910.147, “The Control of Hazardous Ener y.”
DressAppropriately! Reduce the risk of injury from movin parts
by securin loose sleeves and other clothin . Don’t wear loose
jewelry or neckties near the feeder. Wear safety lasses or other
protective eyewear when servicin the feeder. Never place hands
or tools in the feeder when it is operatin .
InstallSafetyCovers! Make sure the feeder remains safe to operate.
Be sure all safety covers have all been installed before returnin the
feeder to normal operation. Safety covers on the FR-20 and FR-30
feeders include any covers installed by your direct supplier, as
well as the exit area cover (which protects the operator from
movin sprockets and belts.)
Operating & Maintenance: Do's & Don'ts
DonÕt Give the Feeder Too Much Product. Don’t overload the
feeder, or it may jam or lose rate. Product must be carefully
metered into the feeder from bulk. Allow only enou h product
into the feeder to keep the line runnin at the required rate.
DonÕtRuntheFeederTooFast. Don’t run the bowl faster than the
linear feet per minute recommended by your direct supplier. If you
do, the orientation qualifiers cannot function as efficiently, and the
feeder may jam or lose rate.
