I seem to remember this question being asked on another forum. :)

Oh, wow.  I see what you mean.  Tricky geometry--no wonder you'd like a model of it.  I have no idea where to find that unless you do what the previous posts suggest.

Good luck.

Try writing to bowlfeeder company. Sometimes companies will send you a dwg or model.

There's really not much call for a super-accurate model of the bowl itself.  The reason is that it's surrounded by custom tooling to orient the parts being fed.  It's custom for every job, and the fabrication of it is somewhat of a black art.  It's done by welding, grinding, bending, and hacking until the part feeds properly, and there's never any sort of accurate drawing made for it.  Whatever manufacturer is making your bowl should provide you with accurate enough drawings to rough-in a blob model to verify clearances and such, but that's about all you're likely to get.
