Shibuya Hoppmann: Elevating prefeeders
A line of elevating prefeeders handles small and medium-sized parts.

Shibuya Hoppmann Corp., a member of the Shibuya Group, introduces the newly upgraded 2015 models of its elevating prefeeder line: EP-04, EP-08, and EP-10.

Designed on the same basis as the company’s original elevating prefeeders, the 2015 models handle a variety of small and medium-sized parts. The improvements include better hopper construction (eliminating most welded seams and no internal hardware to catch product), reconfigured drives to simplify the design, and a 56C face motor mounting to allow a wide array of motor options. The prefeeders are now manufactured out of T304 stainless steel.
