V-TROUGH® – Vibratory Inclined Conveyors

ELEVATE YOUR PRODUCT:

General Kinematics V-TROUGH® inclined conveyors are designed to elevate your product without the inherent problems found with metal belts and other elevating products. The V-TROUGH® is based on GK’s proven conveyor designs, with unique features like our PARA-MOUNT II® vibratory drive system and is available in various balancing options to best suit your process.

PROCESS BENEFITS

Energy efficient natural frequency conveyors are inherently efficient, using the energy stored within the spring reactor system to reduce motor and horsepower requirements Jam-proof, heavy-duty designs reduce maintenance costs and downtime Available in inclines up to 25 degrees depending on your product and process requirements General Kinematics inclined conveyor equipment is tailored to your specific application to provide the most cost effective and reliable system available.

TRENCHVEYOR™

The General Kinematics TRENCHVEYOR™ vibratory trench mounted conveyor is designed to reduce pit size and maintenance hassles. All machinery is located above the vibratory pan, with drive components mounted above the floor for easy access. Each TRENCHVEYOR™ vibratory conveyor is custom designed to fit your application, with options such as non-stick or abrasion resistant replaceable liners. The TRENCHVEYOR™ can also be designed to incline or decline, adding flexibility to your process layout.

FEATURES:
Reduced Noise Levels are achieved with bolted abrasion resistant steel liners, complete with sound deadening material in between liner and trough.
TRENCHVEYOR™ design, with machinery located above the trough at floor level, allows free access for machinery maintenance and inspection, easing maintenance inspections and reducing downtime.
General Kinematics vibratory equipment is tailored to your specific application to provide the most cost effective and reliable system available.

TWO-WAY™ VIBRATORY FEEDERS

TWO-WAY™ feeders from General Kinematics open up a wide range of process possibilities. The TWO-WAY™ bi-directional conveyance allows you to alternate material flow for multi-directional product processing, for rejection of bad product, or any other process which may require multi-directional conveyance from a single unit. The units completely horizontal stroke shuffles material with no impact and a significant reduction in noise. Available in straight and all new bi-directional curved designs.

FEATURES:
Uses a single low horsepower drive, reducing energy consumption.
Available in curves up to 90 degrees.
Horizontal stroke does not damage fragile product.

PARA-MOUNT II® VIBRATING FEEDERS

Proven performance and maintenance-free operation make PARA-MOUNT II® Vibrating Feeders the first choice in vibrating feeders for the most demanding applications. PARA-MOUNT II® Vibrating Feeders in either fixed or Variable Force configurations utilize a sub-resonant two-mass system. Mass A (the exciter) energizes mass B (the deck assembly) through precision engineered coil springs. Only small amounts of energy are needed to maintain the natural energy stored and released by the spring system. What this means for you is increased feed capacity, lower energy costs, and exceptional reliability and ease of maintainability. PARA-MOUNT II® Vibratory Feeders do more work with less energy, thanks to our two-mass, natural frequency design. Whether you are charging a feeder or metering sand or castings, each feeder is designed specifically to work to enhance your process.

FEATURES:
Two-mass vibratory drive can be designed with low horsepower foot mounted or double c flange motors.
Simple, extra-heavy duty construction for years of trouble-free service.
Two-mass, sub-resonant natural frequency design is self-compensating to automatically maintain constant feed rate for varying load and material changes.
Significant annual energy savings over brute or direct force designs.
Engineered to be low maintenance for continuous uptime.
Extra-Heavy duty design withstands heavy parts and abrasive materials.
