"North America's Leader in Automated Parts Feeding"
Canadian manufacturer of vibratory bowl feeders, linear feeders, and robotic flex feeding systems, from a 67,000 sq ft facility in Grimsby, Ontario.
VTR Feeder Solutions is a Canadian manufacturer specializing in automated parts feeding systems for the medical device, pharmaceutical, automotive, packaging, and consumer goods industries. Founded in 1995 as a single-person operation in Hamilton, Ontario, VTR has grown into an industry leader operating from a 67,000-square-foot facility in Grimsby, Ontario, with over 90 skilled employees. The company designs, machines, builds, programs, delivers, and installs all feeding systems entirely in-house — a one-stop-shop approach that streamlines the design-build process and simplifies duplication for future production line expansions.
VTR's core product lines include vibratory bowl feeders, linear feeders, robotic flex feeders, and the PartX flexible feeding platform. Vibratory bowl feeders are machined on a 5-Axis Trunnion CNC Mill using SolidWorks 3D design, making them 100% repeatable and reducing production risk. Linear feeders complement bowl feeders by orienting and conveying parts to downstream assembly stations. Robotic flex feeders combine vision systems and industrial robot arms (from partners including FANUC, KUKA, ABB, Staubli, and Epson) to handle high-mix, low-volume or delicate part families without dedicated tooling. The PartX platform extends flexibility to rapidly changing product lines.
The company places a strong emphasis on Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), providing detailed training manuals, maintenance requirements, and dedicated after-sales service follow-up. All systems undergo rigorous quality audits before shipping. Over 85% of annual projects come from repeat customers, reflecting the reliability of VTR's output. VTR operates under Global Feeders Group Inc. (GFG), which pairs it with sister company Performance Feeders in Florida to create North America's largest parts feeding organization. VTR serves customers globally across medical device, pharmaceutical, automotive, food and beverage, and consumer goods sectors.
