Bin activator, also known as Vibrating bottom, is a crucial device used to facilitate the smooth flow of bulk materials from storage bins, silos, or hoppers. It is usually conical in shape, made of steel or stainless steel, featuring a weldless structure with flange joint connections at the top and bottom, bin connection brackets, and one or two electric vibrators. For example, the Bin activator of VRV Company has a flexible connection between its conical bottom and the bin through a special bracket and a silicone soft connection, ensuring the transmission of vibration and the flow of materials while preventing leakage.

Based on the converging principle of the cone, when bulk dry materials are discharged from upstream equipment (such as bins) to downstream equipment (such as feeders or containers), the materials move from the large-diameter inlet of the Bin activator to the small-diameter outlet. The controllable vibration generated by the vibrating motor is transmitted to the bulk dry materials in the bin, causing the materials to flow smoothly and be discharged from the bin at a uniform rate, preventing blockages. The Bin activator can break up bridging, rat-holing, or accumulation of materials that may occur in the bin and promote the flow of bulk dry materials from storage bins or hoppers. For example, in some flour mills, the Bin activator can effectively solve the problem of poor discharging of flour caused by factors such as moisture absorption, ensuring the continuity of the production process. In addition to this, the Bin activator is also widely used in industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals to handle various bulk dry materials such as powders, granules, and pills. In the food industry, for example, it can be used to handle materials such as coffee beans, wheat, and sugar; in the pharmaceutical industry, it can be used to handle pharmaceutical granules and powdered active pharmaceutical ingredients.

The Silo bin activators have the following advantages:

1. It stabilizes the discharging flow rate, ensuring the continuity of subsequent processes.

2. It features a compact structure and flexible installation, without taking up additional space.

3. It has low energy consumption and low wear, resulting in low long-term operating costs.

4. It is adaptable to a variety of materials, including highly viscous, highly hygroscopic materials, ultra-fine powders, and large granular materials.

5. It reduces the risk of manual intervention and requires no maintenance during long-term operation.
