PRAB’s oscillating scrap conveyors move metal waste by gently shaking it along a pan, an ideal method for specific applications requiring minimal maintenance. These oscillating scrap conveyors (also known as shaker conveyors or vibratory conveyors) have no belts or chains—instead, a durable motor and drive system creates a controlled reciprocating motion that reliably propels metal scrap, castings, or slug chips.
A reliable metal scrap conveyor can handle hot, dry, or oily materials without jam-ups or coolant carryover. PRAB’s oscillating conveyors are built to be rugged and able to withstand continual vibration in foundries, stamping plants, and die-casting operations. Because they are entirely beltless, they offer long-lasting performance with little more than periodic greasing.
For customers seeking a low-maintenance conveyor that still delivers heavy-duty scrap-moving capability, these vibratory conveyors provide a proven, durable solution that keeps production lines clear of debris while cutting down on downtime
