making parts on one of my lines. He wanted to understand just how our product is

Well he saw a vibratory bowl feeder that feeds screws in to the cell.

Hey Wes,

Ever hear the motto "Syntron Shakes the Nation". They were world
leaders in the technology at one time. Don't know about now. I've
seen some of their stuff that you could throw a specific bunch of
fastener parts into the hopper, and it would sort the bolts by length,
sort the nuts, and both washers and put them all in the proper place.
Amazing.
