Other Mold Vibration Technologies


Table Vibration

Table vibration is commonly found on big board or large pallet concrete products machines. It uses vibrators which are connected to impact bars, these bars strike the bottom of the production pallet to create vibration throughout the product. It is inherently inefficient due to the random motion, which leads to poor height control and non-linear product densities & textures.


Other Mold Vibration

Other mold vibration is a style of vibration for concrete products machinery where the vibrators are attached directly to the mold. Because of how these vibration systems work, there is an induced rocking motion caused by out-of-sync vibrators. This motion leads to uneven product densities and overall weak concrete products with inconsistent textures and high mold wear.


CVT Demo at Bauma 2010



CVT Impresses Show Visitors

At Bauma 2010 adults and children alike were mesmerized by Columbia's Vibration Technology, CVT. In the spirit of the trade show, we set a number of coins on edge during the vibration process. Columbia Vibration Technology is so vertically controlled that the coins stayed upright -- no glue, we promise!

See it in action below.
