KEY POINTS
The best centering method depends on the type of parts and the position of the hopper. The most effective method is one of the following methods.
- Long axis centering+ Short axis centering
- Short axis centering+ Long axis centering
However, the feeder operating time will be longer compared to other centerings (or "no centering"). It is effective to select the one with the parts properly distributed and the shortest centering time.
