  • Vibrator/Shaker for depalletizer

    We are having some minor but frequent issues with our depalletizer. It has rails that let us switch between 2 in place twist rinsers (1 for 12oz 1 for 16oz). Sounds great but every time we switch between one or the other paths with the rails we spend half the run adjusting them not to jam.

    We found that jiggling the rails just a bit with a single fingers worth of force was plenty to get cans flowing again. We are looking for something to shake or vibrate the entire run without breaking the bank. As you can guess - google searches for such a tool are comical at best.

    Anyone have a solution that wont break the bank?

    Search for Industrial Vibrator

    Brian, we can sell you a vibrator. Call Tech Support: 970-403-8562 (Option 4). If you prefer to find your own a search for Industrial Vibrator will probably get you the results you want.

      we purchased a massager from Walgreens and zip tied it to the rail. Works like a dream. You can get vibrators shaped like a pickle as well that will work.

        ...was gonna say, if you're only talking about a finger's worth of force, the "comical" results might do the trick.
