REMOVABLE SPOUT & TAKE-OUT

Construction is robust and designed to properly integrate with the chipper spout. Material is aligned in the upstream transitional area and discharged thereafter via the contoured spout.  The bolted take-out section is located immediately upstream of the spout and can be removed to help facilitate spout removal when chipper access is required.

GRADUAL TRANSITION

Generous in length, sweeping transitions function to orientate material prior to the spout for smooth, non-bridging, and continuous material discharge.

NON-METALLIC SECTION & METAL DETECTOR

ACTION’s high strength monolithic fiberglass conveyor sections provide a metal free area to properly isolate and protect the metal detector search coil. The metal detector scans for tramp metal and protects downstream size reduction equipment such as chippers and hogs.

INSTALLATION OPTIONS

Embeds / Base Plates / Floor Plates

STRUCTURAL STEEL BASE

Bases are individually selected, stringently aligned, and fabricated from continuous heavy-duty structural steel employing a network of integral gussets with strategically positioned reaction assemblies and lateral ties to provide the necessary rigidity.  All units are tested and tuned in their entirety.

ADVANCED CONTOUR COMPOSITE SPRING

Commonly used for light duty applications, the contour spring is an attractive alternate to coil springs and constant thickness plastic springs (fiberglass leafs / slats).  This specially contoured spring (thicker on the ends and thinner in the middle) is based on patented constant stress geometry to evenly distribute load along its entire length virtually eliminating failures due to high stress concentrations at each clamp bar edge.  Contour composite springs are available in both balanced and unbalanced designs.

TAPER-SLOT® SCREEN

(U.S., CND & EC PATENT NOS. 5,746,322, 2,206,981 & 97304642.8)

For many materials, the patented TAPER-SLOT® Screen is the preferred alternate to inherently problematic classification equipment such as finger Screens, perforated screens, wire mesh screens, disc screens, and rotary trommels.  Without cross wires, rods, or high wear rotating discs to catch or restrict material flow, the TAPER-SLOT® SCREEN can quickly classify materials with less blinding for accurate and continuous high volume screening. All screen sections are modular, easily changeable, and available in wide range of materials.

NEW GENERATION STROKE PLATE

A proprietary visual tool that precisely measures stroke amplitude, replacing antiquated, hard-to-read stroke estimating devices.

HIGH GRADE FASTENERS

Components are secured with high tensile bolts, hardened steel washers, and reusable vibratory specific locknuts.

ACTION COIL SPRING DRIVE

ACTION’s compact, reliable and responsive natural frequency coil spring drive eliminates destructive force concentrations common to brute force systems, permits smooth starts and stops under varying load conditions, eliminates problems associated with cumbersome rubber compression drives, and minimizes power consumption. The drive shaft, a solid piece of alloy steel with built-in eccentricity is supported by heavy-duty self-aligning roller bearings. ACTION’s rugged coil spring drive is simple with fewer parts to minimize maintenance.

REUSABLE VIBRATORY TORQUE NUT

Manufactured from premium materials, torque nuts take larger, often unattainable, tensioning requirements and reduce them into manageable torques via the use of multiple jack bolts.  High clamping force, quick installation, accurate, even and safe tensioning is easily obtained with only a hand torque wrench (no air required).

POWERFUL MAGNETIC TRAP

The ACTION industrial strength permanent magnetic trap is an economical solution for the reliable removal and retention of ferrous tramp metal in free-flowing materials.  Tramp metal removal increases uptime, equipment life and safety.  Often installed upstream from a metal detector, ACTION’s magnetic trap reduces labor costs and nuisance trips.

FLEXIBLE LINER

Ideal for materials that tend to stick to metallic surfaces, a flexible conveying surface is connected to the vibrating conveyor trough side-walls to form a natural catenary.  During operation, the vibratory action causes the resilient conveying surface to flex thus reducing the frequency of material build-up.

BASE TAKE-OUT SECTION

Spring-free zones allot space for takeaway conveyors or pathways.

CUSTOM DISCHARGES

Troughs can be fitted with multiple discharge points for unobstructed material passage off the end, through the bottom, and out the sides.

CENTRAL LUBRICATION

Provides the ability to lubricate all bearings from a single, safely located multi-zirk manifold while the conveyor continues to operate.

STROKE CONTROL UNIT – SCU 

(U.S.  Patent No. 5,944,170) 

The SCU protects your investment through the active management of vibratory stroke amplitude, eliminating costly problems attributable to undesirable, unnoticed, irregular, and uncontrolled operating variables. By continuously monitoring and automatically controlling stroke, a mechanically sound conveyor is maintained under all operating conditions without unexpected stroke mandated shutdowns. The SCU is an important link in centralized process automation and is ideally suited for abnormal operating conditions or when conveyors are inaccessible.

PREMIUM EFFICIENCY EQP III TEFC MOTOR, SLIDE BASE, & OSHA APPROVED GUARD 

A wide range of operating frequencies is available with motor positioning to suit.

BOLTED SECTIONS

Modular conveyor sections are properly aligned at the factory (pan, base, & balancer) with bolted connections for quick and easy installation. Since field welding between sections is not required, valuable installation time is saved.

TROUGH w/ COMPLETE GUSSETING

Generously sized troughs can be furnished in mild, abrasion resistant, stainless, or special alloy steel and configured in a wide variety of widths, depths, lengths, shapes, and thicknesses. In addition to standard designs, special arrangements are available for abrasive, corrosive, high temperature, or sanitary applications.

LONG STROKE REACTION SPRINGS

Constructed from pure, high grade alloy spring steel, each spring is centerless-ground, shot peened, stress relieved, inspected for material flaws, and painted for corrosion resistance.  In accordance with strict design criteria, reaction springs are strategically and uniformly positioned with application specific attack angles.  Operating stress on all ACTION components is exceptionally low.

SKIRTING / HIGH SIDES

Optimally located, skirts proficiently administer material transfers without spillage.

REPLACEABLE IMPACT / WEAR LINER

Liners are located to suit, shielding the underlying trough from unnecessary wear and damage.

RAIN DRAIN

Allows excess water to discharge.

SUPPORT STRUCTURE

Conveyors may be horizontal, inclined, declined, or a combination thereof. Properly engineered structural supports meet specific elevation requirements and allow for easy clean up beneath the conveyor.

SOLID STEEL STABILIZING CROSS TIES

Insures accurate material tracking and reduces lateral bushing loads.

DURABLE CAST ALUMINUM STABILIZER ARMS

Generously applied to help guarantee proper material tracking, each solid arm is fitted with precision-machined bushings to command straight-line motion, absorb impact loads, and provide lubrication-free articulation. ACTION’s torsional bushings provide high fatigue life with rubber in compression and shear. Other notable features include universally serrated inner sleeves, interchangeability, and inner sleeve bonding for maximum load bearing capacity.

DIVIDER & LANES

Successfully align and convey two or more materials at the same time without mixing or contaminating.

REMOVABLE HOODING

Fully gusseted bolted hooding provide sealing of the conveying deck and may be equipped with custom inlets, flexible boot connections, inspection doors or windows, and quick-release clamps for easy removal.

ISOLATION SPRINGS

Suspended or supported from grade, precisely located isolation springs minimize dynamic impulses to provide the ultimate in vibration protection.

DYNAMIC BALANCING

An assortment of dynamic balancing systems, both compensating and non-compensating, are utilized to minimize foundation costs and the transfer of unwanted vibrations to foundations, supporting structures, and surrounding equipment.  Balanced vibrating conveyors are the correct choice for elevated and suspended applications.

IN-FEED OVERHANG & FLARE

The in-feed cantilevered and flared section allows for an input that isn’t in-line and creates additional below trough space to accommodate existing equipment or structures.  This feature also provides the ability to field-shorten the overall conveyor length to achieve the necessary fit.
