Cox and Plant Vibratory conveyor

• Used for gentle conveying and screening of delicate food products.
• Suitable for dewatering or separating fines from bulk materials.
• Often integrated into processing lines for product distribution and sizing.
• Applied in snack food production for seasoning and coating processes.

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product density and desired separation, but for this class of equipment, it typically handles moderate to high volumes.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Material of construction

As specified, stainless steel is typical for food-grade applications, ensuring hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Deck configuration

Two-deck systems are common for simultaneous conveying and screening or grading of products.

Mesh size

The 10mm mesh diameter indicates suitability for separating larger particles or dewatering applications.

Footprint

For a unit of this stated length and width, a footprint of approximately 2.5m x 0.5m plus motor and support structure is typical.

• What are the main advantages of a vibratory conveyor?

  Vibratory conveyors offer gentle product handling, minimal maintenance due to few moving parts, and are effective for conveying, screening, and dewatering a wide range of materials.

• Is this type of conveyor suitable for sticky products?

• Can the vibration intensity be adjusted?

• What kind of maintenance is typically required?

• Are spare parts readily available for Cox and Plant equipment?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
