Abstract
Some types of multi-component rotating parts having an explicit or implicit asymmetry are considered, and an improved disk hopper feeding and orienting device with radial pockets, a copier, and a regulated ring orientator is proposed. This device accumulates products, orients them, and divides the mass of products into individual pieces, which are then fed to the actuators of automatic machines with the required productivity. The main stages of designing an improved device are described, in the process of which feeding of asymmetric multi-component products differing in shape and size, consisting of various materials and coatings, will be implemented, with the possibility of quick re-adjustment of the device depending on the shape and size of the product, and stable operation will be ensured when orienting multi-component products in order to increase its productivity.
