Concrete vibrator control solution

Minnich Manufacturing introduces the M-Box vibration control solution that enables high-cycle vibrator operators to control speed/vibrations per minute (vpm) of up to two vibrators.

The M-Box minimizes time and cost associated with patching structural concrete surface blemishes can be caused by excessive vibrator speeds. The faster the vibrator speed, the more water separation occurs and collects on the form faces. Chipping and patching labor and patch material can be expensive.

The Minnich M-Box converts the 230-volt, single-phase outlet of a 3,500-watt generator to 230-volt, three-phase output, allowing the operator to choose a uniform and compatible constant vibration speed under different concrete loads.

Minnich M-Box operators can select from speeds of 6,000, 8,000, and 10,800 vpm. The product converts the 230-volt, single-phase outlet of a 3,500-watt generator to 230-volt, three-phase output, allowing the operator to choose a uniform and compatible constant speed under different concrete loads.

“The M-Box gives our customers complete control of their concrete,” says Rob Minnich, vice president of marketing at Minnich Manufacturing. “By helping operators apply the most force with the lowest speed, the M-Box maximizes vibration quality — and, in turn, the quality of the concrete structure.”

The M-Box joins the growing Minnich family of concrete control solutions including the Minnich Auto Vibe systems, which can monitor, control and program hydraulic vibrator speeds during the paving process for superior concrete surface results.
