Maximize the full potential of your moulder
Your moulder’s potential can only be fully realized with the right
infeeds and outfeeds. The greatest potential for boosting efficiency
lies in improving output. With the right material handling system,
rework, rejects, and sorting can be avoided from the outset.
Optimize your production
WEINIG material handling can meet
virtually all your needs. With WEINIG,
you can maximize your production and
produce the highest quality standards.
• Concentrated quality monitoring with
ergonomically designed workstations
• Inspect for quality safely and continuously…with WEINIG
• Inspection of parts
• Avoid rejects by positioning components in accordance with specific
allowable defects
• Continuous end-to-end feeding from
workpiece buffers
• Continuous flow of material prevents
machining defects due to material
stoppage
• Uniform material feeding prolongs the
life of your tooling

WEINIG Hopper Feeders:
non-stop peak performance
WEINIG EM hopper feeders ensure that your moulder is fed
non-stop.
Hopper feeders save space, increase the
service life of your tools and allow the
operator to perform additional duties.
Buffer formation makes it easier to
check for quality before parts are fed
into the machine.
Available in five different models to meet
all requirements. Whether for parts of
random or uniform length, large or
small cross-sections, or for parts ranging
from 150 mm up to 3000 mm – we have
the right feeder for your needs.
Ask for our detailed brochures.
