The S-Series rotary pneumatic vibrator (ball type) is a compact flow-aid device for silos, hoppers, chutes, and bulk material handling equipment. The vibrator uses compressed air to rotate a hardened steel ball inside an eccentric raceway, producing high-frequency vibration that reduces friction and improves discharge flow.

This type of pneumatic vibrator is particularly effective for fine powders and small granular materials, helping prevent material buildup and bridging inside storage equipment.

Key benefits

• High-frequency vibration for improved material flow
• Prevents bridging and rat-holing in silos and hoppers
• Compact and lightweight aluminum construction
• Low air consumption
• Reliable operation in industrial environments

Ball-type vibrators generate low amplitude but high-frequency vibration, making them ideal for powders and fine granular materials.

Typical applications

S-Series pneumatic ball vibrators are commonly used in:

• Cement silos

• Concrete batching plants

• Vibrating feeders and screens

• Powder transport chutes

• Big-bag emptying stations

• Food and grain processing equipment

They are especially efficient when handling dry powders or small granular materials such as sand, seeds, or cement

How it works

The vibrator uses compressed air to rotate a steel ball inside a hardened raceway. As the ball spins at high speed, it generates centrifugal force that produces vibration.

This vibration is transmitted to the equipment surface, loosening compacted material and improving discharge flow from silos, hoppers, and chutes.
