OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT 

 
 
 
 

A standard automatic, single station escapement unit can be 
supplied for mounting at an assembly station.  Four tapped #10- 
32 mounting holes are provided.  Units with multiple outlet 
escapements can be quoted on request. 
 
The 

Automatic Escapement

 is mounted below the spring feeder 

and will dispense one (1) spring when activated by an air signal. 
The factory supplies this unit with a restricting fitting installed 
on the air cylinder.  If this fitting is removed, the air signal provided 
by the customer must be controlled air.  Full line flow/pressure 
will damage the unit. 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

An 

Automatic Escapement Timer

 (PN: 69000-775) 

may be used to automatically actuate the escapement 
at  a  pre-determined  time  interval.  The  time  interval 
may  be  varied  allowing  the  customer  to  dynamically 
adjust their spring dispensation rate.  
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
The automatic escapement can also be actuated via an optional 

Air Operated Foot-Pedal 

(not 

shown). This unit allows the user of an auto escapement to manually dispense a spring as desired 
by stepping on the foot-pedal. Depressing the pedal allows air to pass though to the escapement 
and thus actuate the solenoid.
