Vibrator Types

Roller Vibrators

Description: A simple design with one moving part delivers high centrifugal forces at high frequency; well suited for fine, dry materials that bridge; also suited for consolidation of precast concrete in steel forms or molds; moderate initial cost; slightly quieter than a ball vibrator; requires lubrication; moderate air consumption; long life.

Recommendation: Intermittent operation (2 to 4 hours/day) when considering energy usage and life.

Models:

• Medium Duty - ideal for small to medium size hoppers.

More Details

• Heavy Duty - well suited for the concrete industry.

More Details

• Extra Heavy Duty - ideal to help place, consolidate, and finish precast concrete; repairable.

Turbine Vibrators

Description: A turbine wheel rotating on ball bearing(s) delivers high centrifugal force, especially suited for fine, dry materials that bridge stored in small to medium size hoppers.

Recommendation: Intermittent operation (4 to 8 hours/day) when considering energy usage and life.

Models:

• High Pressure, High Frequency - ideal for powder and materials which tend to bridge.

More Details

• Low Pressure, High Amplitude - ideal for materials which contain moisture and tend to bridge or rathole;

Piston Vibrators

Description: Well suited for small, medium and large hoppers with wet, sticky materials that rathole such as prepared foundry sand; also suited for chutes and feeder applications; low initial cost; high noise levels with impacting models; substantially reduced noise levels with non-impacting models; requires lubrication; low air consumption.

Recommendation: Intermittent operation (4 to 8 hours/day when considering energy usage and life. For continuous duty, use the FP, FPLF, VLB, or VTL/FAL series which are more energy efficient.

Models:

• Precision Linear - especially suitable for feeding parts or powders down chutes or as a pneumatic drive on small vibratory feeders.

More Details

• Extended Piston - for feeding parts and powders down chutes or as a pneumatic drive for vibatory feeders.

Rotary Air Motor Driven Vibrators

Description: A Powerful vibrator suited for medium to large hoppers with dry or wet, sticky materials that rathole such as prepared foundry sand; also suited for placing and consolidating very low "slump" concrete in steel forms or concrete molds; also suited for portable applications such as a railcar shaker; high noise levels; requires lubrication and clean air, moderate air consumption; repairable.

Recommendation: Intermittent and continuous operations where high force output and/or portability are required or where electrical power is unavailable or undesirable.

Rotary Electric Vibrators

Description: A rugged, rotary electric motor with adjustable eccentrics for variable force outputs; well suited for hoppers which store dry or high moisture materials which bridge or rathole; also suited for vibratory feeders and screens and for placing and consolidating very low "slump" concrete in steel or concrete molds or forms; motors are dust tight and suitable for outdoor applications; motors rated for hazardous location are also available; higher initials cost; very low noise levels; very low energy usage; long life; repairable.

Recommendation: Continuous operations when considering energy usage and life.
