# Industrial Specification: Vibratory Bowl

## 1. Technical Definition
The bowl-shaped component of a vibratory bowl feeder that holds and orients parts for feeding.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-3.0 mm amplitude at 50-100 Hz vibration frequency, 0.1-0.5 m/s part velocity**. Failure boundary: **Material fatigue failure at 10^7 cycles for 6061-T6 aluminum under 150 MPa alternating stress, resonance amplitude exceeding 5.0 mm**, Mechanism: **High-cycle fatigue from cyclic bending stress at bowl wall-to-base junction exceeding material endurance limit (90 MPa for 6061-T6), amplified by resonance at natural frequency (typically 70-120 Hz)**.

### 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.
