Example of this type is the [[Bin Activators]] which consists of an inverted cone or baffle suspended across the outlet hopper with supports. There is an annular space between the inverted cone and the outlet hopper through which the material from the bin/silo can flow towards the outlet hopper. The entire assembly oscillates in a horizontal elliptical plane at frequencies ranging from 10 to 50 Hz (typically 30 Hz) and amplitudes ranging from 1/16 to ½ inch. Single or dual exciters can be used to impart vibrations.
