ADVANTAGES

The VIB-TS© is a very inexpensive and simple system which can eliminate any kind of scale when working with a vibronet® vibration dampener. It is accurate enough as an input of the throughput capacity for the calculation of the water addition.

VIB-TS© =

  • SAVE INVESTMENT COST
  • MORE OR LESS BUILT LIKE A ROTARY
  • SAVE INSTALLATION SPACE
  • DRASTIC REDUCTION OF MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE TO ‘0’

The discharge unit of our patented vibronet® vibration dampener is working with a volumetric discharge system. This discharger can also be used as a volumetric throughput scale. The discharger is more or less build like a rotary air lock.

1x revolution of the vibronet machine discharger (= 360 °) equals - depending on the size of the machine and hectolitre weight of the product - a special amount of kilogram of this product per revolution.

The VIB-TS is part of the VIB-MMS©, an automatic moisture control and water dosage system for all free flowing cereals and pulses to ensure a constant moisture level in grain and end products for optimal plant performance.

FAQ

What is the VIB-TS© and what does it do?

VIB-TS© is a volumetric throughput control system designed as a space-saving and economical alternative to conventional scales. It is mounted directly at the discharge unit of the vibronet® vibration dampener and provides volumetric throughput measurement without requiring any additional space or maintenance.

How does VIB-TS© measure throughput?

VIB-TS© uses the patented vibronet® vibration dampener's own discharge unit as a volumetric throughput scale. The discharger operates similarly to a rotary air lock: one full revolution (360°) of the vibronet® machine discharger equals a defined amount of kilograms of product per revolution, depending on the machine size and the hectoliter weight of the product being processed.

Does VIB-TS© require a separate measuring unit or housing?

No. VIB-TS© uses the existing discharge unit of the vibronet® dampener directly as the measuring component. The sensor is mounted at the discharge unit without requiring any separate housing, additional installation space or extra infrastructure. This makes it one of the most space-efficient throughput measurement solutions available for vibronet® installations.

What are the main advantages of VIB-TS©?

VIB-TS© offers four core advantages: it saves investment cost by eliminating the need for a dedicated scale; it saves installation space as no additional unit is required; it drastically reduces maintenance and service requirements to virtually zero; and it is a very inexpensive and simple system that is accurate enough to serve as the throughput input for calculating water addition in combination with the vibronet® dampener.

Can VIB-TS© completely replace a conventional scale?

Yes, when working with a vibronet® vibration dampener. VIB-TS© is accurate enough to eliminate any kind of dedicated scale in this context. It provides the throughput capacity value needed for the automatic calculation of water addition, making a separate impact weigher or belt scale unnecessary in vibronet® installations.

How does VIB-TS© compare to the VIB-SMW© impact weigher?

VIB-TS© is the more economical and space-saving option, using the vibronet® dampener's own discharger for volumetric measurement and requiring no additional hardware. The VIB-SMW© is a dedicated continuous stainless steel impact weigher offering a higher measurement accuracy of up to ±0.2% and throughputs up to 50 tph. VIB-SMW© is the preferred choice where high-precision gravimetric measurement is required, while VIB-TS© is ideal where cost, simplicity and space are the primary priorities.

What maintenance does VIB-TS© require?

VIB-TS© requires virtually no maintenance. Because it uses the vibronet® dampener's existing discharge unit rather than a separate mechanical weighing system, there are no additional moving parts, wear components or calibration routines to manage. Maintenance and service requirements are effectively reduced to zero for the throughput measurement function.

What is the working principle of the vibronet® discharger used by VIB-TS©?

The discharge unit of the patented vibronet® vibration dampener operates with a volumetric discharge system built similarly to a rotary air lock. Each full revolution (360°) of the discharger displaces a defined and consistent volume of product. By knowing the machine size and the hectoliter weight (bulk density) of the product, this volume can be converted into a precise kilogram-per-revolution throughput value, which VIB-TS© uses for continuous throughput calculation.

Is VIB-TS© suitable for all product types?

VIB-TS© is suitable for all free flowing cereals and pulses that can be processed through the vibronet® vibration dampener. Since the throughput calculation is based on the hectoliter weight (bulk density) of the specific product, the system adapts to different product types by applying the correct density value for each product.

Is VIB-TS© only compatible with vibronet® dampeners?

Yes. VIB-TS© is specifically designed for use with the vibronet® vibration dampener, as it relies on the patented vibronet® discharge unit as its measuring element. For installations using other dampening systems or where a standalone throughput scale is required, the VIB-SMW© impact weigher is the appropriate alternative.

What is the relationship between VIB-TS© and VIB-MMS©?

VIB-TS© is an integral part of the VIB-MMS© system — the automatic moisture control and water dosage system for all free flowing cereals and pulses. Within VIB-MMS©, VIB-TS© serves as the throughput measurement input, providing the flow rate data that the VIB-MMS© control unit uses to calculate the precise water addition required to reach the desired target moisture level.

Who manufactures VIB-TS© and where is it available?

VIB-TS© is manufactured and distributed globally by vibronet®-Gräf GmbH & Co. KG Cereal Damping Systems, based in Germany. It is part of the vibronet® product family and is made in Germany.
