Description
The VF Advance (VFA) is PPM's most versatile electromagnetic vibratory conveyor. Its simple electromagnetic drive has no belts, pulleys, gears, springs or other moving wear parts, which cuts downtime and maintenance cost.
Where it is used
The VFA suits any conveying task that needs precise speed control: packaging distribution systems, feeding seasoning drums and feeding multi-head weighers. Power and stroke are easily adjustable, and the DMT controller together with an accelerometer automatically finds and holds the optimum natural frequency for consistent performance.
Installation
The lightweight modular design can be floor-mounted or ceiling-hung. A single pedestal and a long pan overhang make it easy to fit into new or existing lines.
Design details
- Single-pedestal mounting for quick, simple installation
- Patented rubber isolation for long life and very quiet running, with 97% vibration isolation efficiency
- Peripheral-type discharge that distributes product evenly to all scale buckets
- Pneumatically operated gates
Typical applications
- Distribution modules
- Scale feeders
- Transfer conveyors
The VF line
PPM's VF electromagnetic conveyors have been used in food plants for more than 30 years. One drive concept serves a wide range of products, from snacks, nuts, baked goods, dried fruit and cereals to frozen and wet products.
