The friction feeder plays a crucial role in the automation of tasks in the printing and paper handling industry, helping to save both time and resources. This advanced technology is particularly effective at handling flat products through a technique known as friction feed.
What Is Paper Feeding Technology? Paper feeding technology encompasses the various methods to move paper through devices like printers and feeders. These include Friction Feed; Vacuum Feed; and Belt Feed.
Friction feed refers to the process where paper is moved along a path via friction created by rubber or silicone rollers. Machines where high precision is necessary often use this method to avoid complex mechanical or vacuum feeders. The friction feed method allows for quick adjustments and reduces the risk of misfeeds … (click to read more)
