Railcar vibrators

Explore high-quality railcar vibrators (unloaders)
VH-200, VH-500 and VH-500T
for efficient bulk handling

More effective than other railcar vibrators

Our pneumatic railcar vibrators VH-200, VH-500 and VH-500T are engineered to ensure efficient bulk material flowfrom all types of hopper railcars. Using advanced technology, they reduce unloading times, cut operational costs, and boost productivity.

Even in humid or low-temperature conditions, where materials tend to clump and adhere, our vibration systems guarantee complete unloading of fertilisers, cement, ore, and minerals. They also optimise railcar capacity when loading low-density bulk materials.

With high-amplitude, low-frequency vibrations, the VH series delivers far more powerful and effective performance than conventional high-frequency vibrators, ensuring reliable, durable, and efficient railcar unloading.

Easily managed by one operator

Our railcar vibrators are engineered for cost-effective unloading of bulk materials. Built with corrosion protection, impact mechanisms, pneumatic positioning cylinders, and robust steel frames, they deliver durability and reliability in demanding environments.

Designed for single-operator use, the system ensures a fast and seamless railcar unloading process. Controls can be mounted on the frame or remotely for maximum flexibility.

The VH-500T features a 180-degree rotating head, enabling unloading from two parallel railcars, significantly reducing unloading time and optimizing bulk material handling.

VH-200 mobile

The NEW VH-200 Mobile Pneumatic Vibrator by Global Technics — the most powerful solution for unloading bulk materials from railcars. Engineered to focus vibration directly on the railcar discharge hatches, it prevents material blockages and ensures a faster, more efficient unloading process.

VH-500 standard

The VH-500 unloader ensures fast and efficient unloading of bulk materials from hopper wagons. Designed for single-operator use, it drastically reduces labour needs while delivering powerful, reliable performance. By eliminating manual cleaning, the VH-500 saves valuable time and effort, making railcar unloading smarter and more cost-effective.

VH-500T turning

The T-version of the VH-500 unloader offers a faster solution for unloading bulk materials from two hopper wagons situated on parallel railway tracks. Once the first wagon has been unloaded, the rotating head can be manually rotated and locked in the opposite direction by 180°, allowing the second wagon to be unloaded on the parallel track.

VH-500R for rotary tippler

While rotational systems for unloading railway wagons are highly efficient, there is a risk of some cargo, particularly wet cargo, remaining in the wagon in the event of a tipped-over wagon. The VH-500R vibrators, installed on the wagon tipper, guarantee the complete unloading of the railcar.

Who will benefit from our equipment?

Our pneumatic unloaders are a key solution for accelerating the unloading of bulk materials from hopper wagons, silos, bins, and conveyors, eliminating bottlenecks in bulk material handling. They reduce unloading time and demurrage costs, ensuring efficient, complete unloading of fertilisers, minerals, sugar, salt, concentrates, coal, and other bulk products. Reliable and powerful, they boost productivity across logistics, mining, agriculture and construction.

VH-200 mobile

We are delighted to present the VH-200 Mobile Pneumatic Vibrator by Global Technics, the most powerful solution currently available on the market for unloading bulk materials from railcars. The VH-200 has been designed to provide unparalleled performance by focusing the force directly on the railcar’s discharge hatches, which are the area where materials often become stuck during unloading. This precision engineering enables a faster, more efficient process, thereby reducing downtime and increasing operational productivity.

The product offers the following key advantages:

  • The VH-200 is the most powerful vibrator for railcar hatches currently on the market, delivering up to 200 Joules per impact.
  • Low Frequency: With an impact rate of 9 blows per second, this vibrator ensures rapid and effective material discharge, even in challenging conditions.
  • Durability and reliability: The VH-200 is constructed for robust industrial applications and is designed to withstand challenging environments, ensuring long-term reliability and minimal maintenance requirements.
  • Versatility: This product is suitable for use with a range of railcars and bulk materials.
  • The VH-200 Mobile Pneumatic Vibrator represents the optimal solution for the handling of bulk materials in railcars, offering a means to enhance your unloading operations and streamline your logistics processes.
  • Discover the power, precision and reliability that will optimize your workflow.
 

VH-500 standard

The standard version of the VH-500 unloader facilitates the expeditious unloading of bulk materials from hopper wagons. The VH-500 has been designed for ease of use, with the entire unloading operation requiring only a single operator, thereby drastically reducing labour requirements. The product’s robust performance eliminates the need for manual cleaning of railway wagons, saving both time and effort.

Furthermore, the VH-500 is one of the most powerful railcar vibrators on the market, designed to act directly on the wagon’s walls. With an impact force of up to 550 joules per strike, this robust vibrator ensures that no bulk material remains inside the wagon, effortlessly dislodging even the most stubborn loads.

The T-version of the VH-500 unloader offers a faster solution for unloading bulk materials from two hopper wagons situated on parallel railway tracks. Once the first wagon has been unloaded, the rotating head can be manually rotated and locked in the opposite direction by 180°, allowing the second wagon to be unloaded on the parallel track.

The VH-500T is not only one of the most powerful railcar vibrators on the market, applying an impressive impact force directly to the wagon’s walls, but it is also the only vibrator capable of operating on two parallel wagons simultaneously. Despite its impressive power, the VH-500T has been designed with ease of use in mind. A single operator can effortlessly control and rotate the head manually without strain, ensuring maximum efficiency in your unloading process.
