How To Select The Proper Vibrating Feeder Design

By Jack Steinbuch

Dec 16

There are two basic designs available when selecting a vibrating (linear) feeder: electromagnetic and electromechanical. Air powered vibrating feeders are basically an alternate to the electromechanical feeders as they have the same simple brute force design concept – the vibratory drive is directly attached to the tray. Our challenge is to obtain as much information about the application to make recommendations Read More…

The Importance of Getting All the Data for Screening Applications

By Jack Steinbuch

May 28

We receive numerous requests for Screeners where the effective screening area has been specified by the customer. While a decent amount of these requests work out to the best of our knowledge (since not everyone is willing to admit that they may have erred in their request), we do offer to review the application to confirm that the screening area is adequate if sufficient data is provided.

Our challenge in this instance is to get the customer to provide us with the information we require to determine the optimum size, and Read More…

Improving Production Speed of Cast Concrete

By Jack Steinbuch

Apr 24

In designing and manufacturing custom vibratory equipment, I see customer inquiries for a myriad of potential applications to solve production challenges or improve production rates. Recently, a producer of decorative stones presented us with a challenge. The stones are produced from wet cast concrete mix molds. These molds need to be vibrated to de-aerate (remove air bubbles) and consolidate the concrete in the molds. This was being done manually on a vibrating table, typically one mold at a time. They wanted to automate their production to reduce their labor time. They had invested in production equipment that would quickly fill the molds, but had yet to come up with a method to take advantage of that automation by vibrating each mold at the same rate.

We concluded that our Read More…
