Industrial Vibrators
MARTIN® manufactures a comprehensive range of electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic industrial vibrators designed to meet diverse material handling needs across industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, foundries, concrete, and dry bulk loading. With over 3,000 models available, we offer the most complete line of industrial vibrators on the market, ensuring a solution for virtually any application. These vibrators are engineered for reliability, energy efficiency, and safety, including explosion-proof models for hazardous environments.
Common Material Handling Applications
Preventing Material Blockages: Industrial vibrators are commonly used on hoppers, silos, and chutes to prevent material blockages. Sticky or compacted materials, such as powders, granules, or aggregates, can adhere to the walls of storage or transport equipment. Vibrators apply consistent vibration to loosen and dislodge these materials, ensuring uninterrupted flow.
Facilitating Loading and Unloading: During loading and unloading operations, especially in trucks, railcars, and conveyors, industrial vibrators help reduce material clumping and ensure even distribution. This minimizes downtime and increases operational throughput.
Compacting Bulk Materials: In applications requiring the packing of bulk materials, such as during storage or transportation, vibrators compact materials to maximize space utilization. This is particularly important in industries dealing with granular or powdery substances like cement, chemicals, or grains.
Aiding Separation and Screening: Vibratory screens are essential for separating and classifying materials based on size or type. Industrial vibrators provide the necessary motion to ensure effective screening, improving product quality and consistency in mining, recycling, and food processing industries.
Pneumatic Vibrators
Pneumatic vibrators use compressed air to generate vibration, promoting material flow and preventing blockages in hoppers, bins, silos, chutes, and other bulk handling equipment. They are widely used in industries like food processing, construction, chemicals, and foundries due to their ability to operate safely in hazardous or explosive environments where electrical sparks pose risks.
Key advantages of pneumatic vibrators include: adjustable vibration intensity via air pressure, low maintenance requirements, and durability in extreme conditions such as high temperatures or corrosive environments.
Their lightweight design and ease of installation make them ideal for applications requiring mobility or frequent repositioning.
These are compact pneumatic vibrators engineered for small hoppers and tight spaces.
