Revolutionary parts handling system from Sweden

DG Flex Feeder
Revolutionary parts handling system from Sweden
DETAB ECOMAT is a small Swedish company who has been able to accomplish great
improvements for many well-known industrial giants. The DETAB automation parts
handling system, which is unique of its kind, is able to revolutionize many current
mechanical and manual industrial handling processes. The feeding system, the Dyna
Glide Flex Feeder, and the vision system, the ECOVISION 5000, can be seen in operation
at the ELMIA Automation trade fair in May.
Forget mechanics – invest in automation
The DETAB ECOMAT system
consists of two major parts:
The DG Flex Feeder, a vibratory
feeder for quiet and non damaging handling of parts and components. Using micro vibration
technology, this gently separates
and conveys parts to the next
stage of the process.
The ECOVISION 5000 is an
integrated quality control vision
system for automatic counting,
positioning and sorting of parts
of any possible designs.
Together, these form a complete
handling system which is fully
flexible, product independent
and capable of handling parts
measuring from 3 to 200 mm.
The DG Flex Feeder and the
ECOVISION 5000 may be
used for sorting parts which
are to be packed in bags, boxes
or cartons for direct delivery to
customers or for further production processing.
At this time, when everything
must be done as quickly and
as faultlessly as possible, our
system offers new possibilities
for many industries.
Jobs which are currently
carried out by the Chinese
subcontractors may as well be
performed at home. In fact,
some of our customers have
relocated their production to
Sweden since they started using our system. There are many
obvious examples that it is viable
to increase production capacity
and efficiency while at the same
time reducing the number of
operational errors to a minimum.
Another benefit is that our
system is a relatively low
investment which means it is
ideal for small companies,
says Jens Einarson, managing
director of DETAB ECOMAT.
Total process control
The ECOVISION 5000 scans
the parts which are being
conveyed on the vibratory
feeder, and sorts them in the
correct designs, numbers and
sizes, as well as rejecting any non
conforming parts.
Up to 200 parts may be handled
in less than one minute. The same
system may be programmed
to handle several hundred different parts. Each new part is
scanned from different angles to
be prepared for further handling
in a few minutes. The DG Flex
Feeder and ECOVISION 5000
system is currently used by
several major companies within
a variety of different industries.
The system is based on standard
module technology for series
production and is manufactured
in Jönköping, Sweden.

will certainly be a centre of

Some of our customers use
our system for up to 800 parts
of varying shapes and sizes,
which means every one must be
processed in exactly the same
way without any damage.
Our system meets all these
requirements and is also
very simple to use, adds Jens
Einarson. The system may be
extended with several optional extras, such as software for
database based handling of
mixed product:
• Packaging
• Buffer conveyors for inter
operative feeders
• Pallet and box tippers for
large product volumes
