Channel Conveyors

Operating behavior & mechanical features

SIEBTECHNIK Channel Conveyors are free-swinging, which means that the oscillation amplitude is freely adjustable according to the mass ratio of the trough box and unbalance. Linear vibrating Channel Conveyors have a selectable design angle and are therefore flexible in terms of the inclination of the conveyor trough, from horizontal to steeply inclined.

Our FG (double unbalance gearbox) and FR (unbalance motor) series Channel Conveyors transport almost any material and can be supplied with a maximum usable conveyor trough width of up to 5500 mm.

The speed and vibration amplitude of the linear vibrating Channel Conveyors can be adjusted to the specific product in order to minimize wear and optimize the distribution of the conveyed material.

The trough box, consisting of side walls, transverse components and conveyor trough, absorbs all static and dynamic forces. Vibration generation is not located in the center of gravity of the vibratory machine; instead, double unbalance gears or unbalance motors are mounted on a drive bridge. It is important that the resulting direction of force action passes through the center of gravity of the entire vibratory machine.

The linear vibrating conveyors are driven via a V-belt drive with a reduction gear or via a direct drive using a cardan shaft. The double unbalance gears are oil-filled. The unbalance motors have lifetime grease lubrication.

The entire vibration machine is elastically supported on spring elements against the substructure. Various systems of spiral compression springs, rubber buffers, vibration elements or air bellows are possible here, which can also be combined if required.

For dusty screenings, we can supply Channel Conveyors with dust hoods on request. Bunker discharge chutes can be supplied with bunker shoes, needle valves or suspensions.

The robust design using and combining standard components ensures a high degree of flexibility and customer-oriented solutions on the one hand, and on the other hand produces machines with low-maintenance running times and a long service life.
