# Industrial Specification: Component Feeders

## 1. Technical Definition
Automated devices that supply individual lighting fixture components to assembly stations in a controlled, sequential manner.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.0 m/s feed rate, 0.1-0.5 mm positioning accuracy, 20-100 kPa vacuum pressure**. Failure boundary: **Feed rate exceeds 2.5 m/s causing component collision, positioning error exceeds 0.8 mm causing misalignment, vacuum pressure drops below 15 kPa causing component drop**, Mechanism: **Inertial overshoot at high feed rates (F=ma), mechanical backlash in lead screw assemblies exceeding 0.8 mm, Bernoulli's principle failure at low vacuum pressure (ΔP&lt;15 kPa)**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Harmonic Vibration Force Generation**:

> **Primary Equation**: $F_e = m \cdot r \cdot \omega^2 \sin(\omega t)$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Calculates centrifugal force for vibratory sifters/feeders.
