Products

Pneumatic & Hydraulic Vibrators

Pneumatic & hydraulic vibrators work to facilitate the flow of wet or dry materials in bins, hoppers, chutes & pipes, and railcars. Global's hydraulic vibrators produce significantly more force than many other types of vibrators do.

Global also offers a wide range of pneumatic vibrator styles including rotary (ball, motor-driven, and turbine styles) and piston (both Air-Cushioned and Direct Impact). They also manufacture air vibrator mounts, brackets, and controls.

Electric Vibrators

Global Manufacturing electric vibrators are ideal for environments where quiet operation is crucial and where air or hydraulic power sources are unavailable, making them suitable for various bins & hopper, bulk trailer, and truck vibration applications.

Global's Quiet Thunder AC Vibrators provide effective and quiet vibration for material handling. By using an electric motor to rotate unbalanced weights, they produce consistent vibration that helps move materials without impacting the structure of hoppers or truck beds. Their CEG 12V & 24V DC Vibrators offer powerful vibration for heavy-duty mobile applications, ensuring smooth material handling in challenging environments such as dump trucks, hopper trucks, and spreaders.

Air Cannons

Global Manufacturing's patented air cannons, also called air blasters, consist of a compressed air reservoir with a quick-opening valve that releases the stored air in a sudden, high-energy blast to aerate and dislodge material and restore flow. Such devices are excellent at solving bulk flow problems for a wide range of material clogs and jams in hoppers of any size. They are effective when other methods are too expensive, dangerous or destructive—or nothing else works. Multiple air cannons used in combination will restore flow to hundreds, thousands, or even millions of cubic feet of material. Parts and accessories available.

Concrete Vibrators

Concrete vibrators include internal and external designs. Both are used to ensure proper consolidation of concrete for high-quality finished results. Internal vibrators employ an electric, pneumatic, or gasoline powered unit to drive a vibrating head. The head is extended down into poured concrete to remove air bubbles, disperse the large aggregates, and ensure the cement fines are evenly distributed to coat the aggregates. External vibrators remain “outside the pour” and deliver the vibration to consolidate the concrete through the formwork.
