Linear Vibratory Feeder | Efficient Feeding
What is Linear Vibration Feeder
The Linear Vibratory Feeder—also known as Vibratory Linear Feeder or simply Linear Feeder—is a high-performance material handling solution engineered for precise, continuous, and uniform feeding of loose solid materials.
Unlike common misconceptions, this feeder isn’t designed solely for fragile items like potato chips. It excels in feeding a wide range of free-flowing or non-sticky bulk materials, such as puffed snacks, granules, grains, plastic pellets, small hardware parts, and more.
Its linear vibration design enables smooth movement, reliable control, and consistent discharge rates—making it a top choice across industries including food processing, packaging, plastics, chemicals, and electronic

Vibrating Feeder Working Principle
The Linear Vibratory Feeder operates based on the principle of electromagnetic or motor-driven vibration, designed to achieve a uniform and controlled flow of bulk solid materials. Its modular structure consists of carefully engineered components that work in sync to create linear movement, enabling gentle, stable, and consistent feeding.
Key Components & How They Work
Base Unit
Provides stability and absorbs vibration, protecting the frame and minimizing transfer of force to the floor.
Coil and Magnet (Drive System)
The electromagnetic coil generates vibrations that move the tray back and forth rapidly, causing materials to hop forward.
Springs
Connect the tray to the base and help transfer vibration efficiently while allowing controlled movement.
Feeder Tray
Holds the product and channels it in a consistent line as it vibrates. The shape and length are customizable for your product needs.
Control Button
Simple on/off control—no PLC required. Operators manually control operation, ideal for straightforward production setups.
Linear Vibration Design: How It Adapts to Your Material and Workflow
The effectiveness of a linear vibration design depends on how well it’s tailored to the specific characteristics of the material being handled and the requirements of the production process. This design is never one-size-fits-all—it must be engineered with the following key factors in mind:
-
Material Characteristics: The size, shape, moisture content, density, and flowability of the product all affect how it responds to vibration. For example, lightweight puffed snacks require lower amplitude and gentler motion, while dense pellets need stronger vibrations.
-
Required Throughput (Feeding Capacity): The design must match your target feed rate. Higher output volumes may require wider trays, higher vibration frequency, or a dual-lane configuration.
-
Application-Specific Requirements: Whether the feeder is used for metering into weighers, transferring between machines, or delivering product to a packaging line, the design must suit the application’s layout and integration points.
-
Tray Geometry and Surface: The tray must be designed to suit the material—flat for dry goods, U-shaped for granular flow control, or coated for slippery items.
-
Mounting and Isolation Design: Proper vibration damping and structural support are needed to maintain consistent performance and prevent interference with surrounding equipment.
By carefully balancing these elements, a linear vibratory feeder with optimized linear vibration design can deliver maximum efficiency, reduce downtime, and ensure smooth, controlled feeding for any type of loose solid material.
