Vibration motors are a type of motor that provides vibration by operating electrical energy or pneumatic (air) energy.
Vibration motors are used in all industrial machines where vibration energy is required, in food, feed, flour factories, in the construction industry in the forced water tunnels of subways, highways, hydroelectric power plants, in steel and wooden concrete molds producing concrete prefabricated elements, in mining, asphalt plants and crusher machines in concrete plants, sand dewatering machines, recycling facilities, flour, feed, cement and similar steel silos, sieves, feeders, vibratory discharge channels, vibration motors for compaction, pouring, execution, separation and placement processes.
Vibration motors, also called vibro, vibro motor, vibration motor, vibrator motor, vibration motor or vibrator motor, generate vibration energy by the rotation of the rotor of the energized motor, thanks to the eccentric weights fixed on the rotor shaft.
In order to obtain linear vibration with vibration motors :2 vibration motors of the same brand, model (electrical, mechanical and kilogram centrifugal) power must be mounted on the same plane, on the same axis. When 2 vibration motors are operated in opposite directions, vibration energy is obtained in the forward-backward (revolving) direction at right angles to the vibration plate.
The center of gravity of the machines that will work with linear vibration should be determined and the vibration motors should be mounted in this center. Attention should be paid to the merging angle of the linear angle produced by 2 vibration motors and the force line passing through the center of gravity of the machine.
To obtain circular vibration with vibration motors:a vibration motor must be selected according to the capacity of the vibrating machine and mounted at the center of gravity of the system. Thus, 360 degree full circular vibration energy is obtained.
In order to obtain elliptical vibration with vibration motors : a vibration motor should be selected according to the capacity of the vibrating machine and the mounting point should be mounted outside the center of gravity of the vibrating machine. Thus, elliptical vibrational energy is obtained.
