....One of the strong points of the APOS system is its flexibility: by replacing the tray and fine tuning the vibrating motion, other parts can be oriented. How these trays are designed and how to change the motion is not clear. Automating this step would increase the flexibility even further. Berkowitz and Canny (1996, 1997) used dynamic simulation to design a sequence of gates for a vibratory bowl. They represented the effects produced by the gates as state transitions in a non deterministic state automaton. The dynamics were simulated with Mirtich s impulse based dynamic simulator, Impulse (Mirtich and Canny, ....

....and Canny, 1995) Christiansen et al. 1996) used genetic algorithms to design a near optimal sequence of gates for a given part. Optimality is defined in terms of throughput. Here, the behavior of each gate is assumed to be known. So, in a sense (Christiansen et al. 1996) is complementary to (Berkowitz and Canny, 1997): the latter focuses on modeling the behavior of gates, the former finds an optimal sequence of gates given their behavior. Akella et al. 1997) introduced a technique for orienting planar parts on a conveyor belt with a one degree of freedom (DOF) manipulator. Here, it was assumed that the ....

From a modeling standpoint, Boothroyd [11] has worked on abstracting the performance of vibratory bowl feeders with respect to part mass, part geometry, 4 friction, and oscillating frequency of the device.
