Functionality

Principle
The machine is an internal vibrator which creates high-frequency vibrations in the vibrator head.
Concrete is deaerated and compressed in the effective range of the vibrator head when the vibrator head
is immersed into the fresh concrete.
The fresh concrete is simultaneously cooling the vibrator head.
NOTES
The concrete is being compressed for as long as bubbles of air arise.
Vibrator head
In the vibrator head, an electric motor drives an eccentric weight at approx. 12,000rpm (200Hz) and thus
generates precessions. By these precessions the vibrator head introduces vibrations into the concrete.
Inverter
The inverter comprises a current rectifier and a d.c.-a.c. converter monitored by an electronic control.
The current rectifier converts the input voltage (AC single phase) to DC voltage.
The d.c.-a.c. converter converts the generated DC voltage to three phase current (AC three phase).
When the machine is switched on, the control electronics provides a soft start and thus prevents critical
starting currents.
