Vibratory Feeders
ACTION offers a wide range of performance-proven vibratory feeders. Like all ACTION vibratory equipment, each feeder is engineered with appropriate stroke, R.P.M., and declination for efficient conveying and metering of bulk materials. Mating hoppers, gates, screen sections, distribution domes, and other features can be integrated.

Advantages
Base Activated Feeder
- Consistent strokes on pan and base, side-to-side and end-to-end. There is no sensitive overhung exciter prone to rocking and side frequencies.
- Negligible dynamic loads. No need for additional, often costly, sympathetic base systems for elevated installations. Unit supports can be minimized.
- Longer pan strokes on the order of 2x
- 2-Mass Natural frequency design with single base-mounted low horsepower centrifugal motor for energy efficiency
- No complex drive adapter gusset matrix with significant welding
- No concentrated drive adapter stresses typical of a direct drive “brute force” dual motor feeder.
- Reaction springs are evenly distributed and easier to access than tightly packed overhung exciter designs.
- Feed rate can be adjusted electrically via a VFD.
Two Mass Feeder
Reduce Energy Consumption
ACTION’s two-mass natural frequency, single motor, vibrating feeders generate circular motion and use substantially less horsepower to achieve the same amount of work as dual motor (direct drive or brute force) designs.
Full Size Hopper Openings
Two-mass feeders permit larger hopper openings and promote material flow with less chance for jamming or bridging in hopper throats.
Automatic Load Compensation
Two-Mass feeders are tuned to increase vibratory force to compensate for material head loads, without dampening, for consistent material feed-rate control.
Direct Drive Feeder
Practical and easy to use, ACTION single-mass dual motor vibrating feeders provide linear motion and are a practical option for many applications. Direct Drive Feeders are driven by two counter-rotating vibrators which are the only mechanical working parts on the unit.
Under Mill Oscillator & Feeder
Built Like a Tank Our ultra tough and durable under mill oscillators and feeders are designed for the harsh environment under your hammermill shredder.
- Extra heavy duty replaceable liners
- Rear mounted drive for easy maintenance access
- Explosion stops to protect components
Coil spring and direct-drive designs are available.
VIBRA-DISCHARGER®
The VIBRA-DISCHARGER® is a high-capacity vibratory feeder for the activating, metering, and feeding of granular bulk materials from hoppers, bins, and silos. Materials discharge vertically to a take-away conveyor below with symmetrical product distribution.Click here for more information
