KMG EMC2 Vibratory conveyor

• Transporting fragile or irregular-shaped food products without damage.
• Distributing ingredients evenly in processing lines, such as snack foods or cereals.
• Conveying dry bulk materials like spices, nuts, or confectionery.
• Sorting and separating products based on size or density through screen sections (if fitted).

Typical throughput

Throughput for vibratory conveyors of this class typically depends on product density and desired speed, often ranging from hundreds of kilograms to several tonnes per hour.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, as indicated for this unit.

Construction material

As stated, this unit is stainless steel, which is standard for food-grade applications, ensuring hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Footprint

For a unit with a 1600mm pan length, the overall footprint would typically be slightly larger to accommodate the drive mechanism and support frame.

Vibration mechanism

Vibratory conveyors commonly use electromagnetic or mechanical drives to create the conveying motion, offering gentle product handling.

Maintenance requirements

Maintenance for vibratory conveyors typically involves checking springs, drives, and ensuring clean surfaces, with minimal moving parts reducing complexity.

• What types of products are best suited for a vibratory conveyor?

  Vibratory conveyors are ideal for dry, granular, fragile, or irregularly shaped products that require gentle handling, such as cereals, snacks, frozen vegetables, or small components.

• Can this conveyor handle wet or sticky products?

• Is speed adjustment possible on units like this?

• What are the typical installation requirements?

• How does a vibratory conveyor compare to a belt conveyor?

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.
