Vibrating extractor for silo and hopper product distribution
In industries where bulk materials are stored in silos or hoppers, ensuring consistent and uniform product discharge can be a significant challenge. Variations in product flow can lead to processing inefficiencies and uneven distribution during subsequent stages.
Ensures uniform distribution and controlled discharge
The vibrating extractor by GEA is designed for the precise extraction, metering, and distribution of bulk products from silos or hoppers. Constructed with a stainless steel tank and a fixed frame in painted carbon steel, it features a vibrating unit powered by two rotary electric vibrators. Suspension elements between the tank and fixed frame dampen oscillating movements, adjustable based on the extractor size. Manual or optional motor-driven dampers regulate the discharge rate, and an integrated sensor monitors product presence in the tank, ensuring proper cycle execution. This equipment is suitable for applications requiring uniform product distribution, such as in the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
Benefits
- Uniform product distribution across the outlet width
- Automated discharge rate control with optional motor-driven damper
- High accessibility for manual adjustment of eccentric weights
- Robust construction with stainless steel tank and painted carbon steel frame
- Enhanced process control with integrated product presence sensor
