Vibration transport is a form of mechanical transport in which raw materials are transported using a vibrating movement. Vibration transport is an extremely suitable solution for processes with high hygiene requirements because no rotating parts are used and the system is easy to thoroughly clean. You can choose either a trough or a tube, whereby the tube can be fitted with access hatches to facilitate inspection and manual cleaning.
Process:
Conveying & HandlingVibration transport is ideally suited for transporting fragile bulk goods. Using two unbalance motors, the trough or tube containing the product is set into vibration. This vibration transports the product from A to B. Besides break-sensitive powders and flakes, Dinnissen's vibration transport system is also ideal for products where grease or liquid may emit. As the product does not touch any moving parts, products can be transported from one point to another without any contamination.
Because the Dinnissen vibration transport system doesn’t have loose moving parts, this method of transport is highly suitable for processes where fast and thorough cleaning is required. When using a longer tube, you can choose to add access hatches along the entire length of the tube. This allows manual and thorough cleaning of the entire system. Vibration transport allows products to be transported at higher speeds than conveyor belts, which are more susceptible to jamming and wear at similar speeds. Vibration transport is also relatively insensitive to congestion and clogging of the transport channel. As a result, intervention is rarely necessary for this type of transport. Furthermore, vibration transport makes it possible to adjust the speed of transport and dose bulk goods very precisely.
Our vibration transport can be integrated into both new and existing processes. A vibration transport system consists of a tube or a trough-shaped housing, which is vibrated by two unbalance motors. The length and precise design of this vibration transport system are determined by the location, the product to be transported and the desired end speed. Dinnissen's vibrating gutters and tubes are available with access hatches along the entire length of the gutter or tube so that inspection and cleaning can be arranged in no time.
Vibration transport works on the principle that is already reflected in the name: vibration. A U-shaped or closed tube is set into vibration with the help of two unbalance motors. Unbalance motors are motors to which unbalanced weights are attached. Through the motor, these weights make a circular movement, creating vibration. With each forward vibration, the product inside the tube is slightly moved forward. This process keeps repeating, thus propelling the product to the desired location. The materials inside the tube move by a combination of vibration and gravity. The speed at which this occurs depends on the frequency of the vibration drive and the amplitude range.
