Eriez unique Hi-Vi magnetic
drive circuit provides a simple
yet powerful solution to difficult
material feeding applications.
These feeders, with their totally
enclosed patented magnetic
drive, can feed practically any
bulk material from micron size to
bulky chunks. Solid-state controls
operate the feeders with watch
like precision. In addition, you get
all the features that for years have
made Eriez Feeders the leaders in
quality and dependability.
Eriez has standard models for the
majority of feeding applications.
Special units such as multiple
drives, enclosed trays or screens
can be designed for the best
solution to your application. In
addition, a wide variety of standard
and special trays are available.
ElectroPermanent Magnetic Drive
The basic simplicity of a drive
powered by alternately opposing
and attracting magnetic forces
assures low maintenance. There
are no sliding or rotating parts.
Power consumption is low,
installation easy. The positive
driving force of Eriez units provides
stability, control, and unexcelled
accuracy.
AC Operation For Most Models
No rectifiers are required; feeders
are simply wired into AC lines.
Simple Controls
Eriez electromagnetic feeder
controls are reliable, state-of-theart, solid-state units that deliver
superior feed rate control. By
varying the voltage to the feeder,
coupled with Eriez AC circuit,
excellent linearity is acheived.
Standard controls come in NEMA
12 (IP54) enclosures. Special
enclosures are also available.
Controls can be provided with
manual or automatic (analog
signal) adjustment to address
many applications. Special design
controls are also available to
address your unique requirements.
Encapsulation
The coil and magnet in Eriez
drive unit are encapsulated in
epoxy, eliminating coil movement
and thus extending trouble free
coil life.
Enclosed Drive Element
The completely enclosed drive
element, dust and moisture
resistant, extends coil life and
makes external cleaning easier.
Special enclosures are available
for dusty locations where Class II,
Group F and G equipment
is normally used.
High Temperature Units
Standard units operate at
temperatures up to 130F (54C).
Hightemperature units are
available for temperatures
up to 300F (150C).
The Patented Eriez HiVi

Magnetic Drive Circuit
Prior to Eriez revolutionary AC
design, electromagnetic vibratory
equipment operated with an
inefficient attract release system:
a spring mounted moving
mass is alternately attracted
by a rectified pulsating DC
electromagnet and returned to
its original position solely by the
springs. The Eriez HI-VI system,
on the other hand, incorporates a
lifetime permanent magnet (part
of a springmounted moving mass)
whose poles are intermeshed
with those of an electromagnet
powered directly by an AC
line. This results in the springmounted moving mass being both
attracted and repelled by the AC
electromagnet equally on each half
of the AC cycle.
In the diagram below, the poles of
the permanent magnet are shown
intermeshed in the air gaps of the
AC electromagnet. The polarity of
the permanent magnet is fixed,
while the polarity of the
electromagnet alternates at line
frequency. The electromagnet
polarity is shown as it exists on
one side of the AC sine wave;

note that both poles of the
permanent magnet are attracted
toward the unlike electromagnet
poles while being repelled in the
same direction by the like poles.
Thus there are four forces acting
together to drive the armature
and moving mass in the same
direction.
The action described has the
effect of progressively closing
the magnetizing circuit through
the electromagnet core, providing
a progressively increasing
magnetizing force upon the
permanent magnet. The
demagnetizing force is very minor,
since the action described also has
the effect of progressively opening
the demagnetizing circuit.
On the opposite side of the
sine wave the polarities of the
electromagnet are reversed, the
armature is driven in the opposite
direction, and again there is a
net magnetizing force on the
permanent magnet. There is
always a predominant magnetizing
force impressed upon the
permanent magnet that prevents
it from ever losing its strength.
Since the amplitude of vibration
depends directly upon the forces
applied at the poles, and since
these forces depend directly upon
the applied AC voltage, simple
variation of the AC voltage from
zero to maximum results in similar
amplitude variation from zero to
maximum.

Model HS-8 Feeder Drive

FOR CUSTOMER TRAYS FROM 4 8 LBS (1.8 3.6 KG)
Eriez AC operated HiSpeed Feeders have been

designed for exceptionally high speed feeding of light,
bulky materials. They provide greater economy and
efficiency in feeding, filling, etc., and are ideal for use
in conjunction with many weigh scale and packaging
machines.
The HS5 Feeder is capable of moving a great variety
of materials at speeds up to 75 feet (23 meters) per
minute. The other Hi-Vi Feeders are capable of speeds
up to 60 feet (18 meters) per minute. Feed rate is
simply adjusted by Eriez variable transformer type
controller. The units are light and functional and can be
installed easily in a minimum of space in conjunction
with other equipment operation is virtually silent!
Power Supply
These feeders operate at speeds up to 75% greater

than standard models; however, they do follow many
of the basic tried and proven mechanical design and
construction features of other Hi-Vi Feeders.
Spring System
The spring system consists primarily of an elastomeric
torsion spring having high damping properties and so
designed that high deflections can be tolerated without
danger of early failure. Besides being tolerant of high
deflection, the high damping characteristic of the
elastomeric torsion spring makes it possible to operate
on a broad, almost flat area at the top of the tuning
curve. This makes it possible to drive the moving
assembly at high deflections with maximum stability
and minimum input power.
An added and important feature of the elastomeric
spring is its quickstopping characteristic due to the
extremely rapid decay of vibratory energy when
the unit is deenergized. This characteristic is useful
in such product applications as packaging where
overruns of material cannot be tolerated.
Simple Tuning
Easily adaptable for a greater variety of tray sizes
and weights. Tuning, when required, is accomplished
through simple replacement of an easily accessible
glass fiber tuning spring. No other adjustment is
necessary. Simple, clean linesno pockets and
crevicesreduces foreign matter accumulation.
Trays are of welded construction and are available in
regular mild steel or 304 stainless. Rubber isolators are
standard; coil spring isolators are also available.

Revolutionary Tuning
Designed with packaging machine manufacturers in
mind, the HS-8 is easily adaptable to a great variety
of tray sizes and weights. Once the tray is mounted
to the drive, coarse tuning is accomplished simply by
replacement of easily accessible glass fiber tuning
springs. Fine tuning is achieved by changing the
compression of the rubber elastomeric spring. With
E-Z Tune technology incorporated, simple turning of
a wrench adjusts the specially compounded rubber
elastomeric tuning spring at the rear of the feeder
drive. Increasing or decreasing the compression
adjusts the vibration level.

High Deflection
Electromagnetic
Model HS-66
FOR FEEDING UP TO 600 CU FT (17 M3) PER HOUR
The new Model HD High Deflection Vibratory

Feeder is the result of years of research to combine
the higher deflection of up to 3/16-inch (4.8 mm)
and lower frequency (30 cps) advantages of a
mechanical feeder with the trouble-free service
of an electromagnetic feeder.
Eriez unique AC drive is further enhanced by a
unique patented armature design that reduces power
consumption by 75% and allows the drive to be
exceptionally powerful for its size.
Power Supply

The Model HD is designed to handle powders

and leafy products that normally could not be fed
successfully in an electromagnetic feeder. Feed rates
of up to 80 feet per minute (24 m/min) are possible
for products with a bulk density less than l0 lb/ft3
(.16 gm/cc).

All units are encloseddust and moisture resistant.

Dust tight and epoxy coated units are available.
Patent pending electromagnetic drive utilizes rare
earth magnetic technology to produce a large
displacement and low power consumption (25% of
normal electromagnetic drives). This revolutionary
drive has an operating frequency of 30 Hz and
imitates the motion of a mechanical vibrating feeder
with the control of an electromagnetic feeder.
Epoxy-encapsulated coil and magnet eliminate coil
movement, extending troublefree coil life. Fiberglass
springs give long spring life and are not subject to
corrosion. Units are base mounted. Feeder base comes
with rubber isolation mounts. Trays are available in
mild steel and stainless steel.
Due to the unique operating characteristics of Eriez
high deflection feeders, it is suggested that you send
a sample of your material for feed rate conformation.

Designing for Special

Application Requirements
Eriez experience in designing unique feeder units
and trays for special applications, plus computerization
of vibratory feeder variables, means that unusual
requirements can be met quickly and economically.
Meeting non-typical requirements for unique
applications is common of Eriez. Experienced
engineers, production specialists and state-ofthe-art manufacturing easily handle difficult tasks.
Feeders with tube trays such as the 56C are used when
handling dusty materials and also to protect sensitive
products from outside contamination. Multiple drives
arranged longitudinally either above or below tray
make efficient conveyors in lengths up to 20 feet
(6 meters).
Long narrow trays can be furnished to form vibratory

conveyors. They can be supplied in other shapes as
well, such as tubular, V-type and half round. They
can be lined or coated to offset abrasion or noise.
Many other variations are also available.
Tubular trays part of an enclosed system used

for hot or gassy products are a standard option
on most Eriez Hi-Vi feeders.
Eriez Vibratory Feeders serve as efficient screen

separators. Scalping, sizing and de-dusting can be
achieved with our vibratory screens. Screeners such
as this HD-66 with tool-less screen removal are
sanitary and user friendly.
15
Hi-Vi Volumatic
Feeder Machines
Eriez HiVi Volumatic Feeder Machines provide
dual vibratory action to assure the proper flow of
dry bulk material for measured discharge rates.
These onepiece, compact, rugged assemblies
are ideal for use in conduction with weigh scales,
packaging and bagging equipment, small batch
operations, and where additive feeding is being
performed either continuously or intermittently.
Operation
In operation, the adjustable spout at the bottom of
the hopper can be adjusted as required to obtain the
optimum depth of flow. Once this has been established
and the adjustable spout secured, the best feed and
vibration rates of the feeder and the unit vibrator can
be obtained by adjusting the double controller.
Timing and/or dual feeder control functions can be
obtained with special controllers designed to provide
such functions.
Each HiVi Volumatic Feeder Machine has been

scientifically designed in size, shape and vibratory
action to give you the most efficient precision feeding
possible. Models are available in three popular sizes,
with variable feed rates ranging from a few pounds
to 15 tons per hour.
Operating Benefits
Positive control of feed, so important to packaging
and bagging operations, is assured by the elimination
of rearend dead spots and frontend flip. The rugged
hopper with adjustable discharge spout is easily
removed from the frame for cleaning. All models
are available for dusty locationsand as specially
constructed units for installation in those areas where
Class II, Group G equipment is normally used.
Eriez standard line of HiVi Feeders and Bin Vibrators
with their proven, exclusive construction features and
operating advantages are the components used to
make these feeder machine assemblies.
All models are furnished with compact,
maintenancefree, variable transformer type AC
controls. The box can be installed on the frame
of the unit or remotely in any convenient location.
The controller can be furnished with a dual control
for fast and dribble feed rates where necessary.
Various timers are available for any number of timed
or intermittent feeding phases.
The Eriez HiVi drive system, based on a permanent
magnet, replaces rectifiers by providing an inherent
rectification system. This means more operating
forces, no energy lost to the rectifier, more efficiency.
Entirely Enclosed Unit
The HiVi Vibratory Feeders and Bin Vibrators used
in these Feeder Machines are entirely enclosed. The
feeder is so designed that the drive elements are
completely protected against damage or decreased
efficiency due to contamination by moisture and
foreign materials.
Uniformity of Feed
The Feeders are designed to produce the most uniform
feed possible, consistent with the wide variety of
existing field applications. They provide instant starts
and stops with a minimum of product carryover.
