Agree usable single-button delivery, face and rotational position, cosmetic limits, replenishment, missing or double parts, jam recovery and changeover records.
Photographs show general component feeding, including coil springs. Button feeding must be assessed with the actual button range and required pick-up condition.
Count acceptable single buttons at the real downstream pickup, with the required face and rotational position. Record cosmetic damage, orientation errors, missing or double parts and interventions separately; nominal feeder output does not establish usable delivery.
Use the approved button range and include loading, replenishment, nests, overlaps, a jam and a format change. Follow the complete feeding and pickup sequence through recovery to the first acceptable part.
Plan button feeding systems around real component variation, bulk condition, orientation, usable delivery rate and the downstream interface. Discuss representative part trials with Sorting Solutions. Use this guide to resolve jam, damage and recovery acceptance checks before it limits the final system.

Record the button format and sample range, bulk-loading condition, required pickup orientation and receiving arrangement. Retain accepted-part results, cosmetic checks, missing or double presentations, interventions and the settings used.
For Button Feeding Systems, include normal production conditions, credible extremes, product or part variants and changes over time.
Record the response to each agreed fault and the operator tasks needed for recovery. Repeat the relevant orientation, single-part and cosmetic checks after restart or a format change before accepting the trial result.
Test normal, marginal and supplier-variant buttons within each approved format. Keep the format list, dimensions and required pickup condition with the trial results.
Compare supplied and circulated samples against the agreed cosmetic examples. A correct face and position must not conceal scuffing, chipped edges or trapped debris.
Include representative nests, stacks and overlaps and the intended replenishment method. Record accepted single parts and operator interventions with loading included.
Agree the face and rotational datum, then measure acceptable single buttons at the actual pickup under the stated machine-demand pattern. Do not substitute feeder output for usable delivery.
Use the actual receiving nest or gripper and agreed signal sequence. Demonstrate missing-part and double-part responses and confirm when the next button can advance.
Challenge the agreed jam and format-change cases. Retain recovery tasks, recovered settings and the first acceptable single-button pickup, with separate orientation and cosmetic results.
