Case Studies

  • MARTIN® NTS™ 180NF Clears Powder Bridging in Hopper Unloading
    Situation

    At a client’s facility, they routinely unload dry powders from hoppers as part of their production workflow. These fine materials have a tendency to bridge or arch inside the hopper, interrupting flow and forcing our operators to manually intervene—raising both safety and efficiency concerns.

    Problem

    Dry powder consistently bridged at the hopper outlet, halting flow and causing costly delays. Our operators often resorted to mallets or rods to break up the blockage, risking injury and inconsistent results.

    Solution

    To address this, the application experts at MARTIN® advised the client to install the NTS™ 180NF, a linear non-impacting pneumatic vibrator. This unit delivers linear vibration without the shock or noise of impacting devices. It’s well-suited for delicate or cohesive materials like dry powders, effectively breaking up flow obstructions without damaging the hopper walls. This resulted in greater operational safety and efficiency as well as uninterrupted flow of material.

  • NTS™ 80 Delivers Gentle Vibration Needed for PreRoll-Er™ 200 Cannabis Machinery
    Problem

    Cannabis OEM PreRoll-Er™ set out to design the PreRoll-Er™ 200, an automatic pre-roll machine tailored specifically for the cannabis industry’s unique challenges. Their goal was to deliver a system that could process all cannabis strains, including delicate and infused varieties, without damaging fragile buds or dislodging valuable trichomes. They needed a source of gentle, linear vibration that would maintain product integrity and meet the demands of premium pre-roll production.

    Situation

    During development, PreRoll-Er™ discovered that most available vibration solutions were too aggressive, risking damage to the cannabis product and compromising quality. Many vibrators lacked the ability to independently control frequency and amplitude, making it difficult to fine-tune the process for various strains and product types. To solve these issues and ensure gentle, consistent handling, PreRoll-Er™ turned to Martin Vibration Systems & Solutions for expert guidance.

    Solution

    Our application experts recommended the MARTIN® NTS™ 80 Non-Impacting Linear Vibrator for the PreRoll-Er™ 200. The NTS™ 80 was selected for its ability to deliver a gentle but powerful linear force, moving cannabis in small bins and hoppers without damaging the product or equipment. Its independent frequency and amplitude controls allow for precise adjustment to suit any strain or product requirement. The NTS™ 80 is lubrication-free, quiet, energy-efficient, and features a sanitary, durable design that sheds material buildup and withstands frequent wash-downs.

    By integrating the NTS™ 80, PreRoll-Er™ achieved reliable, high-speed production — up to 1,300 pre-rolls per hour — with guaranteed results and uncompromised product quality.
