About product specifications

I want to take out the signal from the quantity detection sensor of the NJ-80 type hopper.

The quantity sensor of the NJ-80/SR80 type senses the remaining quantity of screws in the screw feeder. It does not take external output. Also, it is not possible to attach a residual quantity detection sensor for the hopper itself to the NJ-80/SR-80.

I want to take out the signal from the quantity detection sensor of the T-510 type hopper.

The T-510 type has a quantity detection function inside the hopper. It can take an external output signal. Refer to the maintenance manual for details.

I want to take out the signal from the quantity detection sensor of the MHP-80 type of hopper.

For the MHP-80 type, the quantity detection sensor inside the hopper is optional.
It can take an external output signal.

I would like to know how to install a feeder when incorporating a feeder into a screw fastening system.

I want to purchase an AC adapter.

Contact the distributor.

Is the back side of the feeder slightly higher than the front side?

The back is raised in order for the screws to feed smoothly on the straight rails.

I would like information on the specifications of the external output signal line.

With manual operations, the signal can be removed when removing the screw. With automatic equipment, the signal can be removed regardless of whether the screw is in place or not. For quantitative extraction, the screw supply completion signal can be removed. Refer to the maintenance manual.

I would like to turn the power supply unit on/off on the system side.

Allow an interval of at least 5 seconds when switching between ON/OFF. Power ON/OFF/ON intervals of less than 5 seconds can lead to malfunction.

I’m having some problems with clogging with the NJ-80 and SR-80 models.

The total length of the screw is up to 18 mm. Some screw shapes are prone to clogging. If clogging occurs, we recommend switching to a different model.

Do I need to purchase the feeder unit and rail set?

If the model number of the unit has a rail size specified, a rail set of that size is included in the unit.
If you wish to purchase a rail as a spare, please purchase a complete rail set.

With the quantity detection sensor of the OM-26R/OM-26M type, is the threshold value still set after power on/off?

Threshold settings remain.
