Port Royal, PA – Vibro Industries manufactures a full line of Air-Operated Transporters that provide an innovative, time-saving solution to problems commonly associated with conventional conveying systems, such as routine and emergency shutdowns for cleanup and maintenance. Although originally designed to eliminate scrap removal downtime in conveyor-driven collection systems for punch press, lathe and other machine-tool operations, Vibro Air-Operated Transporters have been creatively applied to a wide range of conveying operations in manufacturing and packaging.
The concept driving the Vibro Air-Operated Transporter is a pneumatic cylinder that operates on air pressure to move the product tray back and forth, causing the material to steadily advance. The material advances on the slow-acceleration forward stroke, but remains stationary during the rapid return stroke – ensuring a constant progression. This provides a safe, reliable and effective means of product handling.
Currently available in four models, Vibro Air-Operated Transporters are sized to meet a wide range of applications and easily adaptable to existing production lines. A compact design enables the Vibro Air-Transporter to be installed in cramped, congested areas, even where conventional conveyors will not fit.
Travel speed, or product flow, is adjustable with a simple air pressure control setting. The larger Model 450 and Model 850 are also capable of handling multi-tray installations, thereby doing the work of several conventional conveyors. Options include: motion sensors for automatic shutoff, cover guards for harsh environments, quick-release clamps for fast tray removal, and adjustable bearing supports for trays.
