VIBRATION SYSTEMS
Reliable vibration for stronger output
sectors where vibration is essential to material movement, compaction, and processing efficiency. “The technology is widely used across the precast concrete, mining, construction, materials handling, and processing industries,” says Scheepers. “We also supply into sectors like food processing, recycling, and general manufacturing where vibration technology plays an important role in improving production efficiency.” Improving quality and production efficiency Within the precast concrete industry, vibration systems are particularly important in achieving product consistency and reducing defects during production. “The vibration systems help achieve better compaction and a more consistent concrete finish,” Scheepers explains. “This reduces air pockets and improves the overall quality of the final product.” Beyond quality improvements, the systems can also contribute directly to increased productivity. Scheepers notes that several customers have experienced significant operational gains after implementing the technology.
Juanita Pienaar spoke with Chantelle Scheepers, Marketing Manager at OST-Africa (Oscillating Systems Technology Africa), about the company’s VISAM vibration systems, trends shaping the industry, and how the right vibration technology can improve performance across a wide range of industrial applications. Built for demanding industrial environments According to Scheepers, one of the key differentiators of OST-Africa’s VISAM vibration systems is the combination of product quality, reliability, and local technical support. “What makes our VISAM systems stand out is the reliability, quality, and technical support behind the product,” she explains. “The VISAM vibrator motors are imported from Italy and are built for heavy-duty industrial applications.” The systems are designed to operate in demanding environments where consistent vibration performance is essential to maintaining production quality and throughput. While the hardware itself forms an important part of the solution, Scheepers says the company’s approach to customer support is equally significant. “We also focus strongly on helping customers choose the correct motor and setup for their specific application, which improves performance and avoids unnecessary costs,” she says. “Our customers appreciate that the systems are durable, easy to maintain, and backed by local support from OST-Africa.” The technology is currently being used across several industries, particularly in
