VIBCO Vibrators Helps ReadyMix Batch Plants Operate More Efficiently, Produce Consistent Batches

Wyoming, RI, May 10, 2008 --(PR.com)-- VIBCO 55-2 Pneumatic Piston Vibrators are mounted to hopper walls to increase flow efficiency and produce more consistent weigh batches.

A readymix concrete batch plant was experiencing significant production and operational delays due to cement hanging up on the sides of the hopper. The hangups caused incorrect amounts of cement to be dispensed which resulted in inconsistent batches.

In addition to the production delays caused by the need to manually check and correct each batch, product inconsistency negatively affected customer satisfaction. After installing VIBCO Piston Vibrators, the batch plant had no more issues with batch consistency, so production went up along with customer satisfaction.

VIBCO 55-2 Pneumatic Piston Vibrators feature a dependable, one-piece design and can move up to 10,000 lbs of material in a bin. They produce 5,500 vibrations per minute (VPM) and consume 15 CFM at 80 PSI.
