KMG Systems - Vibratory Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Used for gentle, controlled transport of delicate or irregularly shaped food products.
• Ideal for distributing ingredients evenly across processing lines, such as before packaging or further processing.
• Commonly integrated into weighing, sorting, or inspection systems to maintain product flow.
• Suitable for conveying dry, granular, or small particulate food items without causing damage.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product density and conveyor length, but units of this class typically handle several tonnes per hour.

Power supply

Commonly requires a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz for UK operations.

Construction material

For food processing applications, units are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Drive mechanism

Often features electromagnetic or unbalanced motor drives to generate the vibratory motion.

Footprint

The footprint is highly variable depending on the required conveying length and width; buyers should consult the seller for exact dimensions.

Control

Typically includes variable speed control to adjust conveying rate according to production needs.
