Ornamental Concrete Vibrator Solutions
1. V-130 Ball Vibrator with Special Vise-Grip Clamp VC-130
Problem: Difficulty in vibrating tall pedestals due to attachment issues and height constraints.
Solution: VIBCO developed a special vise-grip bracket (VC-130) with a V-130 ball vibrator, allowing easy attachment and movement along the seam. This solution ensured smooth and perfect pedestal finishes.
2. Vibrating Tables for Even Vibration
Problem: Uneven vibration on homemade vibrating tables, leading to defective forms.
Solution: Customer used VIBCO's "Live Top" table design, achieving nearly 100% equal vibration across the table. The US-900 Electric vibrator with adjustable speed was used for optimal results.
3. Portable Vibrator for Large Concrete Ornaments
Problem: Air entrapments in large concrete lawn ornaments and difficulty moving molds.
Solution: A VS-320 Pneumatic vibrator was mounted on a C-clamp, allowing the vibrator to be moved between molds without relocating them. This resulted in smooth products without air pockets.
4. Vibrating Table for Exposed Aggregate Pillars
Problem: Internal vibration was ineffective for exposed aggregate pillars.
Solution: A large vibrating table with two 4P-1000 electric motor vibrators was used. The setup provided optimal vibration, especially with low-frequency, high-amplitude vibrators, ensuring quality results.

ENGINEERING DATA & APPLICATIONS ORNAMENTAL CONCRETE ORNAMENTAL CONCRETE PRODUCERS USE V-130 BALL VIBRATOR WITH SPECIAL VISE-GRIP CLAMP VC-130 PROBLEM: Ornamental Concrete Manufacturer had problems vibrating tall pedestals - there was no way the vibrator could be attached and the pedestal was too high to put on his vibrating table. SOLUTION: VIBCO designed a special vise-grip bracket VC-130 with a V-130 ball vibrator attached to it. It made a fast and easy attachment to the flange and the vibrator could be easily moved up and down the seam. The pedestals now come out smooth and perfect every time. The bracket and vibrator were used on different forms with the same excellent results. Model VC-130 Vibrator and Vise Grip Bracket.

ENGINEERING DATA & APPLICATIONS ORNAMENTAL CONCRETE ORNAMENTAL CONCRETE PRODUCERS VIBRATING TABLES PROBLEM: Customer made his own vibrating table but could not get even vibration throughout table top. When using multiple forms, the ones in the middle of the table did not come out right and had to be scrapped. SOLUTION: Customer purchased drawings for a version of VIBCO’s patented “Live Top” table and built it to specifications. The “Live Top” table has virtually 100% equal vibration throughout the complete table top. All forms now put on the table come out perfect. Customer used model US-900...

ENGINEERING DATA & APPLICATIONS ORNAMENTAL CONCRETE PROBLEM: 48” high x 10” square exposed aggregate pillars were impossible to vibrate internally due to the exposed aggregate. Customer was looking for other ways to produce his product. ANSWER: A vibrating table large enough to hold the molds was constructed and two model 4P-1000 electric motor vibrators were used. The forms were moved down to the vibrating table on a roller conveyor put on the table – concrete was added (390 lbs.) and vibrated. Total fill and vibration time appr. 2 minutes. RESULT: Good – 1800 RPM vibrators showed the best results....
