I. Introduction
Automatic Screw Feeder saves all the troubles of manually fetching the screws in
a traditional way. Furthermore, by delivering the screw in a speedy and stable
way to the tip of the screwdriver where the screw is immediately locked into the
work piece. The machine substantially improves working efficiency and greatly
lowers manpower costs by the utilization of the highly productive un-manned
operation. Combined pneumatic or electric screwdriver to screw feeder in
accordance with the design principles of fast, stable, convenience. To enhance
the screws and speed significantly improve production efficiency.

VII. Inspections prior to test run
According to “Installation Procedures”, make correct connections of respective
items. Especially for voltage and air pressure.
Make sire all connections of power, signal and air hose are install correctly
Make sure the incoming power supply is correct
Make sure the ground wire of main power install correctly.
Make sure the feeding time of screw feeder is between 0.5~1 second
Make sure there is 80% oil of air unit.
Make sure air pressure (5~6kgf/cm2)。
Make sure the hopper is clean and no miscellaneous material.
Make sure the installation place of screwdriver is stable or not. And whether the
capacity of spring balancer is correct.
Make sure whether screw feeder place in smooth, stable and suitable position.
Must keep the pipeline neatly to avoid external compression.
VIII. Test run
Confirm < Inspections prior to test run> be done properly before <Test run>
Open the power of screw feeder then confirm whether the signal light will be lit.
Check whether the pushing board swing repeatedly until the vibration equipment
rail full of screw. If full then it will be stop. And whether the vibration keeping to
move screw forward.

12
Load screw in hopper then check feeding condition is normal or not
Load screw in hopper The Max. volme of screw
Test whether feeding is normal
Check the screw can move forward smoothly while feeding.
Press screwdriver lever for 1 second then release to start working then screw will be fed.
Check whether screw can reach tip of screwdriver after fed, and the screw thread should be
beyond the jaw. See <Fig.4> Fig.4

Test whether the screwdriver working normal
Check the screwdriver will rotate after pressing switch.
Check whether there is abnormal voice while screwdriver working.
IX.Operation
1. Instruction of operation：
(1). Open power of screw feeder
(2). Press screwdriver lever for 1 second then release for first use then screw will be fed.
(3). Check whether screw reach tip of screwdriver and screw thread beyond jaw.

(2). Air volume adjustment ：
If the screw can’t reach to screwdriver within feeding time, please adjust air volume by
procedures as below.
a. Use wrench to release nut of escapement.
b. Then use wrench to adjust screw by procedures as below.
※ Reduce air volume ：Turn clockwise
※ Increase air volume：Turn counter-clockwise
c. Then assemble nut after adjusting.
Caution: The different length of delivery hose will need different air volume. The
jaw will be damaged easily if air volume is too strong. The proper volume just
let screw deliver to tip of screwdriver.

standard is 0.5 second. See <Fig.7>
Caution: Necessary to adjust appropriate feeding time for different length
of delivery hose.
b. If the screw which in slide rail can’t move forward smoothly, please adjust
inverter. See <Fig.8>
(5). Torque adjustment and BIT replacement：
The pipeline of screwdriver must be separated then disassemble to before BIT
replacement or torque adjustment. Steps are as below.
