I. Product Application
Applicable objects: Automatic feeding, positioning, pressing and quality inspection of soft sealing parts such as silicone rings, silicone plugs, sealing gaskets and leak-proof caps at the end of disposable electronic cigarette atomizers and cigarette rods.
II. Product Overview
This equipment is designed for the batch and standardized production of disposable electronic cigarettes. It uses a vibrating disc or linear vibration track for feeding, and operates in synchronization with a multi-station indexing table (or linear module) to achieve automatic separation, orientation correction, precise positioning, accurate press-fitting, and online inspection of silicone parts. Through visual and force/displacement closed-loop control, it ensures the press-fitting depth, concentricity, and sealing reliability. It supports barcode binding and MES traceability.
III. Core Functions
Automatic Feeding: Multi-channel automatic feeding for silicone parts, atomization cores/shells, end caps, etc., with low material alarm.
Direction identification and correction: Visual/mechanical screening, automatically removing reverse and burr parts.
Positioning press-fitting: Servo/cylinder + force sensor closed-loop, dual control of press-fitting depth and force value.
Online inspection: installation height, press-fitting curve, appearance defects (breakage/deformation/misinstallation).
Air tightness/leakage verification (optional): Conduct air tightness tests on key sealing positions and determine OK/NG.
Electrical performance recheck (optional): Resistance value, conduction determination, automatically memorized and traceable.
Automatic feeding and sorting: Good products and defective products are discharged separately, and full pallet loading is supported.
IV. Equipment Advantages
Multi-station synchronous assembly, cycle time 0.6–1.2 s/pcs (depending on the component), with a high UPH.
Visual and force/displacement dual checks ensure higher consistency in press-fitting and greater reliability in sealing.
Flexible fixtures and quick-change standard jigs enable more efficient model and color switching.
Comprehensive process data recording: Integrated traceability of pressing force, displacement, air tightness value, and judgment result.
Modular design makes it easy to maintain and expand, and it supports both stand-alone and networked layouts.
Safety standardization: Grating, emergency stop, interlocking of door locks, pressure/vacuum monitoring.

The structures of disposable e-cigarettes vary significantly among different brands and models. We recommend providing 3 to 5 sample units, 2D/3D drawings, and process requirements (cycle time, inspection items, traceability methods). Feihong Instruments will offer a free assessment and provide a customized solution and quotation.
