General Characteristics: Moderate life, rugged construction, simulates a blow from a hammer.
Energy Source: Air Powered/Pneumatic.
Force Output: Linear.
Force Output Range: 178 to 1,900 lbs.
Usage Recommendation: Intermittent operation (4 – 8 hours per day)
Description: Rubber tipped piston delivers impact forces close to impacting vibrators and reduces noise by up to 20% depending on model. A steel piston reciprocates in a cylinder housing at high frequencies and impacts on harden end plates with rubber tip. This simulates the blows of a hammer and causes any object attached to the vibrator to vibrate at its natural frequency. Internal porting allows the piston to reciprocate without the need for external valves other than to control air supply. Frequency and force can be adjusted by varying the air pressure.
Product Applications: Hoppers, silos, feeders, tables, and screeners where noise is a factor and precision adjustment of force and amplitude are important.
