REENGINEERED MODEL 850 AIR-OPERATED TRANSPORTER IS NOW LIGHTER AND MOVES HEAVY LOADS WITH LESS AIR CONSUMPTION

Vibro Industries is pleased to announce the introduction of the "BRUTE" 850 Air-Operated Transporter. The Brute 850 has been reengineered from Vibro's original Model 850 Transporter and the unit now provides four distinct user benefits. First, the Brute 850 now has a smaller profile and is lighter in weight (46.5 lbs./ 21 kg) when compared to previous models. Plus, it can now move a combined capacity of more than 500 pounds of load and 100 pounds of tray weight with less air pressure consumption (3.4 +/- 0.1 ACFM @ 40 PSI as certified by Butler Engineering & Contracting, Inc. Test Laboratory of Emmaus, PA**). This means you can mount multiple trays to a single unit, replacing four conventional belt conveyors. Best of all, the Brute 850 costs no more than previous models.

Brute 850 Air-Operated Transporter is lightweight, easily adaptable to existing production lines, and can transport a wide range of materials quietly and efficiently, without the downtime typically required for clean-up, maintenance and repair attributed to ordinary conveyers. Capable of moving more than 500 pounds at speeds from 15 to 40 ft/min, the Brute 850 is an excellent choice for removing scrap from beneath machine tools, materials handling operations, pharmaceutical or other processing applications. Plus, it is an excellent alternative to conventional conveying systems because of its low-profile design which enables installation in cramped areas.

The concept behind the Brute 850 Air-Operated Transporter is a pneumatic cylinder that operates on air pressure to move the product-tray back and forth, causing the material to steadily advance. Material moves forward on the slow forward stroke, but remains stationary during the rapid return stroke — ensuring a constant progression. This provides a safe, reliable and effective means of product handling.

Options for the Brute 850 include: motion sensors for automatic shutoff; cover guards for harsh environments, quick-release clamps for fast tray removal; and adjustable bearing supports for trays.

Vibro Industries, of Port Royal, PA, manufactures a premium line of Air-Operated Transporters — the only transporter line that is 100% air operated and 100% American made. Leroy Johnson, president, introduced the first Vibro Air-Operated Transporter in 1985, following 12 years of extensive experimentation and rigorous testing. Since that time, Vibro Air-Operated Transporters continue to perform successfully a variety of conveying applications in manufacturing operations worldwide.

** Certification testing was performed with equipment that complies with ASME Std. MFC-18M (2001).
