Vibrator Motors

We were fortunate to obtain a large quantity of the high quality Copal 6mm dia 3VDC - 7250rpm. LA6-404FT micro vibrator motors. Runs on as low as 1.2 volts. Brand new, unused, with short color coded leads and holder.

Vibrator Motors are motors that produce vibration via an unbalanced mass on its drive shaft. The motors come in different shapes and sizes and can be used for a lot of different things. It can be as small as a dime and as big as a grown man. Uses for vibrator motors range from telecommunications, industrial, robotics and even personal use. Let us explore some of the ways where vibrator motors are being used. During the early age of electronics vibrators were used to provide an alternating current (AC) power supply from a direct current (DC) source in an inverted circuit. This kind of circuit was commonly found in car radios which were powered by vacuum tubes to produce sound. Vibrator Motors are motors that produce vibration via an unbalanced mass on its drive shaft.

Uses for vibrator motors range from telecommunications, industrial, robotics and even personal use. Let us explore some of the ways where vibrator motors are being used. Industries use vibrator motors in many different ways. Industrial-sized vibrating machines can get very large depending on what needs to be shaken. For example a feed hopper’s vibrating motors can shake approximately 50 kilograms of inertial mass. Vibrator motors are also common on construction sites. These vibrating machines are used to consolidate freshly poured cement so that all the trapped air and water escape allowing the concrete mixture to settle in properly. A similar type of device is also used to separate aggregate materials at construction sites. Sorting gravel from sand can be a chore, but with a sorter that uses a vibrator motor, this work can be accomplished in no time. On a smaller scale, tattoo artists use tattoo guns with vibrating needles that pierce skin allowing ink to permanently settle in. Engravers also use a similar tool to permanently etch designs and lettering on metal, glass and other materials. Other uses include propulsion for robots and motors for anti-lock braking systems. A vibrator motor has a more personal use too. Who hasn’t enjoyed a massage from a personal electronic massager - those battery-powered massagers that differ in shape and size and can be small enough to keep in your drawer or purse? These handheld gadgets are great for sore backs, tired feet and tense shoulders. It’s a good way to relax and de-stress even while at work. Big massagers like massage chairs and vibrating beds utilize bigger vibrator motors but are equally relaxing. Believe it or not furniture manufacturers and even electronics use vibrator motors to test the durability of their products. This would usually involve strapping a vibrating motor onto a chair or monitor while leaving it on for a considerable period of time. This ingenious way of testing for performance can give manufacturers a good idea of how to improve design and durability. The use of vibrator motors extend in many ways including pharmacy, medicine and other high-tech industries. It might be easy to take such a plain machine for granted. Yet, without these motors the simple conveniences we enjoy today might not be possible at all.

WE CALL IT BY DIFFERENT NAMES... Earthquake Machine, Grand-Daddy Vibrator, and more... This is a unique product from Surplus Traders. Basic motor is 1.4 inches in diameter and runs on voltages from as low as 4 volts to as high as 14 volts. Low current consumption: 200ma@5VDC, 1000ma @ 7VDC, 2.0A @ 10VDC and 2.2A @ 12VDC. Maximum speed is approx 5000 RPM, but operation at this speed, with this weight, is not recommended. Can be used to vibrate: containers, fluids, wall, beds, chairs, deer feeders, etc. Ideal as a signalling device for the hard of hearing, as well, when attached to furniture, doors or walls. We have had many, many requests for a motor of this size and power and now have it available. Order being taken now for future delivery. NOTE: due to the vibration magnitude, this motor is NOT recommended for "personal" devices unless the motor and weight are fully and securely encased.
