If you have any questions about material feeding in recycling, our SPALECK team will be happy to help!

A vibrating conveyor chutes the recycled lightweight packaging material into an NIR sorting machine. The material is distributed evenly across the entire width, ensuring an optimal supply.

Applications of vibratory conveyors

What are vibrating conveyors used for?

Vibrating conveyors are used to

  • Convey
  • Dosing
  • Distribute
  • Comparative
  • Feeding sorting machines, such as NIR sorters
  • as a bunker discharge chute, e.g., for feed hoppers

Rugged Technology for Demanding Applications

Application example

If a vibrating conveyor is used as a bunker discharge chute in the recycling industry, for example, it is often exposed to extreme forces and stresses. Your new SPALECK vibratory conveyor trough is therefore designed to be very robust and durable. In addition, they can optionally be equipped with, for example, easily replaceable wear plates made of Hardox or a similar material. This steel design offers you very low maintenance and protects you from unscheduled downtime.

Selecting the Right Vibrating Conveyor Trough

How do I find the best vibrating conveyor trough?

To find the optimum vibratory conveyor for your application, the following information is important for selection and dimensioning:

  • Nature of the conveyed material
  • Delivery capacity or flow rate
  • Design requirements
  • Consideration of the installation environment
  • Integration into your existing or new system
  • Is screening required during conveying?

Use in the pharmaceutical, chemical & food sectors

When do you use stainless steel Vibratory feeders?

Stainless steel vibratory feeders are used wherever hygiene, purity, and cleanliness are essential, such as when performing food or pharmaceutical conveying. Other applications include feeding material into dryers, metered discharge, and dust-tight transport. When used with food, the Vibratory feeders must also be food-safe.

Vibratory feeders made of stainless steel are therefore used in these areas of application. Thanks to the material properties of stainless steel, you benefit from many advantages, such as protection against contamination or harmful substances.

The GMP-compliant Vibratory feeders are also very quick and easy to clean. Benefit from our SPALECK ComfortLINE design here too. This reduces the maintenance and production costs of your end products.

Structure of a vibrating conveyor trough

Tailored to Your Needs

Our vibrating conveyor troughs consist, as standard, of the conveyor trough with a trough-shaped structure, a drive, an inlet, an outlet, as well as the substructure and control unit.

The individual components and their designs are optimally selected and adapted to your requirements.

For example, a bunker chute for scrap metal is equipped with wear plates and flexible seals.

Conversely, a vibrating conveyor trough used in pharmaceutical production for distributing powder can be designed to meet the ATEX standard and feature a dust-tight cover.

If long conveying distances need to be covered, the vibrating conveyors can also be connected in series.

Of course, vibration monitoring sensors can also be installed, which you can then use in conjunction with our SPALECK Connect technology.

Depending on the application, we equip the vibratory conveyor with one of the following drive types:

  • Magnetic drive
  • Unbalance or vibration motor
  • Richterreger
  • Multiple drive

Thanks to our innovative machine bearings, vibrations are transmitted only minimally to the foundation and the surrounding steel structure. This simplifies the integration or replacement of older no-name products.

Vibratory conveyors for conveying, dosing and leveling

What are Vibratory feeders?

Vibratory feeders are machines that are used for conveying, dosing and leveling bulk materials, raw materials and recycling materials of all kinds. They are an important component of production plants or recycling plants. They are available in normal steel as well as stainless steel in a food-safe GMP design. The aim is to transport the product over short to medium distances. Depending on the area of application, low conveying capacities up to conveying capacities of over 500 t/h are required.

Typical Materials

Which materials are suitable for conveying with vibratory conveyors?

The range of products and materials that can be conveyed using vibrating conveyors is virtually unlimited. From A for waste to C for chemical products to Z for zinc residue, everything is included. SPALECK vibratory conveyors can be used to convey almost all free-flowing bulk materials in all grain sizes.

These include:

As your partner for vibrating conveyor chutes, we offer you decades of experience in conveying and separating. Is your material not listed here? We would be happy to advise you on the best vibrating conveyor technology for your material and process.

Functionality & technology

How does a vibrating feeder work?

The operation and technology of a vibrating conveyor can be explained as follows: Vibrating conveyors are set into a constant, uniform vibration by, for example, a magnetic drive or an unbalanced motor. This oscillating movement in the transport direction moves the bulk material on the surface of the vibrating conveyor trough. The aim can be, for example, to feed the product to the next production step with the help of the vibratory conveyor trough. In the food production sector, this could be, for example, a screening machine. In slag recycling, special vibrating conveyor chutes are used, for example, between a screening machine and a magnetic separator. Vibrating conveyors are characterized by very gentle and even conveying of the material.
