ABSTRACT

A feeder bowl and preparation system for packaging stick-like objects
including a feeder bowl, vee shaped spacing conveyor, and a collator mechanism
which permits a robotic pick-up station sufficient time to pick and place the
stick-like object. The system simplifies programming the transfer of the
objects by presenting a desired amount of product for a specific picker and
allowing time to pick and place the object, the system eliminates a feed rate
by a robotic process in the system, the system allows for essentially higher
feed rate overall due to an oriented pick-up area presentation, and the system
provides a sanitary design compatible with a transfer of food products in a
food industry.
