Vibratory Shakers

How Do They Work?
Vibratory Shakers | Once metal items to be cleaned are positioned inside the machine and the cycle timer is set, the shaft below the tub starts to rotate. The counterweight on the shaft works in unison with the super-duty springs holding the tub in place, to create a unidirectional high speed vibration.

Since the vibration in unidirectional, the aluminum or ceramic media vibrates rapidly while shifting in one direction. The unidirectional shifting of the media and the curved bottom of the tub causes the media to move on top from front to back, down the back wall, then up the front wall.

Vibratory Shakers

Through the continuous vibrating action of the media and shifting flow, parts are methodically stripped of scale, grease, grime, and oil. The longer the shaker runs, the smoother and shinier the parts become. Burrs disappear and sharp edges become blunt.

Aluminum media is specifically designed to cut through grease and grime fast. Multiple edges and points reach deep into those tough crevices, working in conjunction with the cleaning solution to penetrate tough, stubborn build-up.

Fast, Flexible, and Efficient

These mighty cleaning machines have long been a popular tool for both automotive and industrial cleaning applications

  • alternator and starter housings
  • machined parts
  • CVs
  • water pump housings
  • connecting rods
  • valves

Just put your parts in and close the lid. Set the timer and find something else to do. That’s it!
The vibratory action of the media works like little brushes, helping the cleaning solution scrub parts down to bare metal. Besides cleaning, they’re also great for deburring, buffing, and polishing parts quickly, quietly and efficiently.
