Uses for Industrial Vibrators

From NAVCO, National Air Vibrator Co.
 

 

Industrial pneumatic piston vibrators are commonly installed on storage containers of all sizes including: Bins, hoppers, silos and even chutes or pipes.

Vibrators effectively promote material flow by eliminating the formation of bridges and rat holes. Special saddle type mounting brackets can be engineered for pipe installations.

In addition, Teflon Coating is available for the BH vibrator inside and out. Teflon coating inside the bore and on the piston extends wear life when lubrication is not permitted such as in food processing. Teflon coating on the outside adds corrosion resistance and allows for clean wash down when debris gets coated on the vibrator’s exterior.

Products & Services
Bin Activators are solids feeders valves with integral vibrators to promote material flow and prevent material bridging.  Search by Specification | Learn more about Bin Activators
Industrial vibrators use rotary or linear motion to provide consistent vibration for laboratory and industrial shakers, screeners and classifiers, and bins and hoppers. They are powered by an electric motor, pneumatic pistons, or hydraulic fluid. Search by Specification | Learn more about Industrial Vibrators
