VibraKING model 25, 45, and 85 operating instructions
December 2009
General description
Models 25, 45, and 85 vibratory chambers use commonly available media to de-burr, polish, de-scale, or otherwise
surface condition parts made from various materials. The media and parts achieve the proper processing motion by being
subjected to thrust vectors that apply working force to the combination. A rotating mass that is critically located at a
prescribed angle in relation to the tub center creates this vector force field. The vector field rotates around the tub axis
such that at any point in the wave, the media and parts have properly aligned force vectors applied that sustain the
vibratory wave. If plotted, this field of vectors is coaxial to the tub centerline giving rise to the term “Coaxial Drive”.
“Coaxial Drive” identifies Burr King Manufacturing’s proprietary technology (patents pending).
The M25, M45, and M85 vibratory chambers are inherently well isolated from their environment because of Coaxial
Drive technology. The effect of this isolation is an approximate 3 decibel sound reduction from units of similar size. One
dB represents a 10 times reduction in sound energy and is the smallest change in sound that the human ear can detect. The
decibel scale is logarithmic, thus -1 dB reduction represents a time’s 10 reduction in energy, a -2 dB is a one hundred fold
reduction, and -3 dB a one thousand fold reduction. Additionally, better than 85% of the applied mechanical energy
applied to the vibratory process leaving little extraneous vibration to be absorbed by the floor on which the machine is
mounted. The excellent use of the available energy also allows the vibratory chambers to operate very well with modestly
sized electric motors.
The chambers have two descriptive volumes, “total volume” and “working volume”. The total volume is that volume of
liquid that would fill the tub to its brim. Working volume is approximately 80% of the total volume. Because there are
many different part geometry’s, weights, and materials, meaningful ways to specify working capacity are “working
volume” and “part load”. Working volume includes the volumes occupied by the media and the part's load. Maximum part
load is that part load weight (irrespective of part volume) for which the vibratory chamber can sustain working action.
Factors such as part geometry can reduce or even increase the maximum permissible part load. The final measure of
optimum working capacity then becomes the combined part and media load for which the desired results occur within an
acceptable time frame.
Receipt and initial machine set-up
1. Insure that you have received all of the items that you ordered. Compare the packing slip with your purchase order, and
of course with the physical items received.
2. Verify that there is no obvious shipping damage. If shipping damage is discovered notify the freight carrier of your
intention to file a freight damage claim. They will assist you.
3. Verify that the AC power that is identified on the machine as received matches the AC power that you intend to operate
the machine with. Do not modify the machine’s wiring without first contacting your distributor or Burr King
Manufacturing.
4. Do not modify or defeat any electrical wiring safety feature. For example, do not remove the grounding pin on the AC
electrical plug.
5. Verify that you have received a warranty card, parts lists, catalog, and manual.
6. Complete the warranty card and return it to Burr King Manufacturing via FAX or mail.
7. Verify that the safety guards for the machine are in place and functional. See the parts list and schematic for the below
indicated part numbers.
8. Prior to operating the machine read the manual carefully. Insure that all persons who will operate the machine or who
will work in the vicinity of the machine read, understand, and comply with these safety instructions.
9. Insure that your AC electrical power source is properly sized and properly fused for the machine you purchased.
Consult with a competent electrician to determine the proper specifications for your electrical service prior to connecting
your machine.
