An automotive assembly plant in Detroit, Michigan utilizes their own coal- fired utility. The company has experienced build up on a number of chutes in their fuel-handling system. As a result, air lances and shovels must be used daily to clean the build-up to avoid ongoing problems. Unfortunately, dealing with this issue meant that operators had less time to focus on other areas of the plant. Additionally, fly ash hoppers were bridging. The vibrators being used were not effective in providing enough vibration or were simply malfunctioning altogether.

Situation:

Martin Vibration Systems did two things. First, we sold the plant an NTS 54/02 on a VAC 20 MOUNT. Second, we recommended NTS Vibrators with FRL units. The company purchased an NTS 50/01 and an NTS 54/02.

Solution:

The portable unit has resolved the issue of buildup, which effectively allows the operators more time to spend in other areas of the plant. Additionally, the new NTS units will be evaluated to determine which offers superior performance. The best of the two will be selected for their 23 ash hoppers.

Industrial vibrators are essential to producing products which we use every day. From food and medicine to breweries and consumer products, Martin Vibration Systems is working hard to improve material flow.

The use of vibration has proven effective in many types of applications. Industrial vibrators are an economical and cost effective means to generating vibration.

We offer a wide range of models and consider ourselves specialists and the leader in industrial vibrators. An industry standard, we can provide the best solution to your problem.

An ostrich farm was searching for a faster and more efficient way to remove unwanted waste from their many ostrich pens throughout the property.

Situation:

The farm’s previous method utilized a screen, and it required the tedious task of tilting and shaking the waste by hand. It had been situated on a 4×8 golf cart trailer for portability, and the tires were used as a vibrating mechanism between the ground and the trailer.

Solution:

Ultimately, the solution was to attach our vibrator model CDS36-390 to the center of the reinforced screen frame, with it tightly secured to the trailer. The material now easily flows through the screen and can be re-spread again upon removal of the screen. The operation must be performed daily, and now it is completed by only one person in just one-fourth of the time.

In addition to being cost effective, industrial vibrators have proven to be dependable in helping companies with a variety of needs. Not only do industrial vibrators reduce hearing loss and the risks of back injuries, but they also can minimize plant noise and overall operating costs.

The growth of industrial vibration continues today as the preferred choice for many customers, as it is cost effective, low energy dependable and durable.

A manufacturer who is located in Midland, Michigan was using a wood-burning powerhouse for its plant. The issue at hand was that the wood was forming unnecessary bridges inside of their five feeders.

Situation:

The company applied vibrators to shake the wood bridges loose, but unfortunately, they only found minimal success. Plant operators then had to take the time to ultimately loosen the bridges, which was not an optimal solution.

Solution:

The solution was ultimately found by mounting several NTS 50/04 vibrators from Martin Vibration Systems. The vibrators were set up on a timer system to supply air every minute for 15 seconds to each vibrator. This solution has since solved the manufacturers’ bridging problem. Consequently, wood successfully finds its way to the belts. As a result, the operators of the plant are now able to work in other areas thus solving a time management issue.

You will save money since industrial vibrators are silent and require no additional hearing protection.

In addition, industrial vibration products have minimal moving parts and are considered far less maintenance compared to mechanical options.

There are different vibration tendencies available which help to control product breakage and packaging issues caused by mechanical options.

Martin Vibration Systems offers many unique vibration products for your individual needs. Feel free to contact us to find out how we can better serve you.

A Wisconsin Confectionary was in immediate need of specific equipment in order to properly prepare their candies for human consumption. The candies initially required separating and then spreading on a processing belt to get the candies ready for coating.

Situation:

Unfortunately, the confectionary was having issues separating its small, flavored candies and dry chocolates evenly for a coating application. As a result, the company was experiencing a high amount of waste due to the clumping of the candies and chocolates.

Solution:

Martin Vibration Systems promptly installed our NTK Oscillators to the shaking-zone frame to control noise and to create vibration between 60 to 70 dBa. Additionally, there was no oil mist discharge present.
Our Oscillators boast an instant stop and start capability, and as a result, the lubrication-free equipment has considerably improved the packaging process of the Wisconsin confectionary, now resulting in very low waste of the candies and chocolates.

A well known Food Company of Kitchener, Ontario is a manufacturer of biscuits and cookies. The company uses several of our Piglet Belt Scrapers to make cookies which contain marshmallows and chocolate.

Situation:

On a visit to the plant, an engineer inquired as to whether or not we could address and possibly fix a vibration issue. It turns out that a pivoting motion was causing an arm weldment to repeatedly strike a wire mesh screen belt and cause a pivoting oscillation in an axis. As a result, cookies and chocolate were passing through the system, and the ingredients were creating a mess of the screen which was to be recycled.

The issue was one of quality control. The amount of chocolate adhering to the screen versus the amount of chocolate passing through the screen was the problem. Despite the temperature control and the fat formulation, originally the end product was not turning out as expected.

Solution:

The NTK Pneumatic Oscillator was the solution to the problem, as it was found that it works in a pivoting motion. The operator is now working correctly to consistently produce a delicious, high quality cookie.
