Pairing a scan vibro head with a collaborative robot (cobot) allows automated scanning of large structures like wind turbine blades or aircraft fuselages without moving the part.
Instead of guessing when a machine might fail, Scan Vibro allows operators to trend the condition of the machine over time. By comparing a current scan to the baseline, engineers can watch a fault develop slowly. scan vibro
The "Scan" in Scan Vibro implies a systematic approach. It involves sweeping through frequencies (Fast Fourier Transform or FFT analysis) to identify specific fault frequencies, or in some contexts, using scanning laser technology to visualize vibration across an entire surface area. It transforms invisible mechanical motion into actionable data, allowing engineers to "see" inside the machine without opening it up.

At its core, refers to a suite of vibratory equipment—including conveyors, sifters, and elevators—designed to move and process bulk solids using controlled mechanical vibrations. Unlike traditional belt conveyors, vibratory systems use oscillating motions to "hop" material along a trough or through a screen.
In the mining industry, equipment is subjected to extreme loads. Scan Vibro methods are used on crushers, screens, and mill drives. Detecting a crack in a gear tooth early via vibration analysis prevents the destruction of an entire gearbox, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars.

When it comes to handling fragile bulk materials, the GEA Scan-Vibro sifter is in a league of its own. Designed for continuous 24/7 operation, these units are engineered for:
