VIBCO quietly & effectively improves concrete screeding

A VIBCO VS-510 Silent Pneumatic Turbine Vibrator replaces the original vibrator supplied with a vibrating screed. A VIBCO Vibrators application engineer received an urgent call from a concrete flatwork producer. His product had serious blemishes and imperfections caused by oil leaking out of the ball vibrator originally supplied with a vibrating screed. The resulting quality issues caused a tremendous amount of rework and a noticable drop in customer referrals. In addition to quality problems, the concrete flatwork producer received noise complaints from employees and neighbors and consequently needed a low-noise solution.

The VIBCO Vibrators application engineer recommended a VS-510 Silent Pneumatic Turbine Vibrator. The VIBCO VS-510 is a lubricant-free, low-noise vibrator that produces a hefty 940 lbs of force, but only 77 dB on A-Scale at 1 meter at 80 PSI. The VS-510 produces 4,500 vibrations per minute (VPM) and consumes 21 CFM at 80 PSI. The result was a dramatic reduction in rework, improved employee & neighbor satisfaction, and an increase in customer referrals.
