IMPROVEMENT DESCRIPTION:
In comparison with its predecessor ITF3, the new iFeeder 4-56mm has a new base plate made of aluminum. The top guide for 4 and 8 mm iFeeders is changed and the reel holders for 4 -24 mm are improved.The 72mm and 88mm iFeeders remain unchanged.All iFeeders are backwards compatible.1. Benefits and values of using iFeeders in general:
Improved handling
Decreased Feeder weight by ca 35% (≈1kg)Improved interface in combination with Feeder trolley 34Improved CoO
More robust reel holderReel holder safety improvedFast error recovery due tbetter Feeder handling in the trolley.Improved Image
Titanium look back plateMore robust reel holderNo more rattling sound of the reel holder when handling the FeederThe iFeeder will fit on all current (AX-201/301/501) Feeder trolleys
Improved interfacing in combination with other trolleys than Feeder Trolley 34 is limited.2. BENEFICIAL FOR: All customers using iFlex and A-series machines.

1. aluminum base plate (less weight)2. longer top guide (improved interfacing)3. robust reel holder (improved interfacing and acoustics)4. improved safety reel holder (and thicker reel holder plate)5. pre guide (improved interfacing is backwards compatible)The changes of iFEEDER 12-88 mm are:
1. aluminum base plate (for 12-56 mm feeders)2. The top guide changed (is backwards compatible)3. robust reel holder ((improved interfacing and acoustics for 12-24 mm feeders)4. improved safety reel holder and thicker reel holder plate (for 12-24 mm feeders)5. pre guide (improved interfacing is backwards compatible)
