JVI Vibratory Equipment

What JVI Vibratory Equipment does

JVI Vibratory Equipment is a privately held, Houston-based custom manufacturer of industrial vibratory equipment used to feed, screen, convey, and vertically elevate bulk materials. Founded in 1991, the company serves five primary verticals: mining and aggregates, recycling, steel, plastics, and food and beverage. Its product portfolio spans four core categories — vibratory feeders, vibratory screens, spiral elevators, and vibrating conveyors — with sub-products including electromechanical and electromagnetic pan feeders (the latter capable of feed rates from grams per minute to 750 tons per hour and electromechanical units up to 4,000 tons per hour), cone crusher feeders, the Titan railcar and truck unloading system, tube feeders, dosing feeders, grizzly, classifying, scalping, and dewatering screens.

The company's technical differentiation rests on its proprietary Single Mass Technology, which mounts unbalanced motors directly to the feeder body, eliminating the exciter springs, v-belts, sheaves, and natural-frequency tuning required by conventional two-mass feeder designs. Equipment is custom engineered to application requirements in-house and validated through an in-house material testing lab. CSA and ATEX explosion-proof certifications are available across multiple product lines, supporting deployment in hazardous dust and gas environments.

JVI operates a direct, sales-led enterprise model with quote-based pricing, in-house sales engineers, regional representatives across the US and Canada, and a strategic partnership with AViTEQ Vibrationstechnik GmbH for international reach and technology exchange. Revenue is generated primarily from one-time capital equipment sales, supplemented by replacement parts (drives, springs, buffers, controls) and field service and technical support from its Houston headquarters. The buyer base is enterprise industrial, and projects run on long sales cycles typical of engineered capital equipment. Ownership appears to be founder or management-held with no institutional investor or parent company disclosed.

Products and services

• Electromechanical Pan Feeders Electromechanical vibratory pan feeders regulate the flow of bulk materials in industrial processing lines using an electromechanical drive system. They are designed for heavy-duty aggregate, mining, and mineral processing applications.
• Electromagnetic Pan Feeders Electromagnetic vibratory pan feeders provide precise, controllable vibration for feeding and metering bulk materials in industrial applications. They use an electromagnetic drive system to deliver fine control over feed rate and amplitude.
• Vibrating Tube Feeders Vibrating tube feeders convey and meter bulk materials through enclosed tubes using vibratory motion, suitable for materials that must be contained or controlled during feeding. They are used in industrial processing environments to handle fine or dusty bulk solids.
• Cone Crusher Feeder Cone crusher feeders are vibratory feeders engineered to deliver a regulated, consistent stream of material into cone crushers in aggregate and mining operations. They are built to handle the heavy surge loads typical of primary and secondary crusher circuits.
• Titan Feeder System The Titan Feeder System is a PLC-controlled, multi-feeder vibratory system that coordinates multiple feeders from a single control platform to deliver high-capacity bulk material feed with centralized automation. It is suited to large-scale aggregate, mining, and mineral processing installations requiring coordinated, programmable feed control.
• Vibratory Dosing Feeders Vibratory dosing feeders deliver precise, repeatable doses of bulk material or additives into industrial processes, using controlled vibratory feed rates. They are designed for applications requiring accurate metering, such as plastics compounding, food ingredient dosing, and chemical processing.
• Vibratory Screens Vibratory screens classify, scalp, and dewater bulk materials in aggregate, mining, recycling, and processing operations. The category encompasses classifying screens, grizzly screens, scalping screens, and dewatering screens, each tuned to the customer's material and capacity requirements.
• Vibratory Classifying Screens Vibratory classifying screens separate bulk materials into multiple size fractions using vibratory motion, used in aggregate processing, recycling, and mineral beneficiation plants where precise particle classification is required.
• Vibratory Grizzly Screens Vibratory grizzly screens remove oversize material from feed streams ahead of crushers and screens, protecting downstream equipment in primary crushing circuits. They are built for heavy-duty aggregate and mining applications with high-impact loading.
• Vibratory Scalping Screen Vibratory scalping screens remove fines or foreign material from bulk feed streams at high capacity, used in aggregate, recycling, and quarry operations to clean feed ahead of further processing.
• Vibratory Dewatering Screens Vibratory dewatering screens remove moisture from bulk materials such as sand, aggregates, and recycled fines using high-frequency vibratory motion. They are used in aggregate wash plants, recycling operations, and mineral processing facilities.
• Spiral Elevators Spiral elevators gently lift bulk materials vertically using a spiraling track and vibratory motion, providing quiet, low-maintenance elevation of containers and packaged goods. They are used in packaging lines, food & beverage plants, and light industrial conveying applications.
• Vibrating Conveyors Vibrating conveyors move bulk materials along a trough using controlled vibratory motion, suitable for handling aggregates, ores, recyclables, and other bulk solids in industrial processing environments. They offer a low-maintenance alternative to belt conveyors for many applications.
• Replacement Parts (Drives, Springs, Buffers, Controls) JVI supplies replacement parts including drives, springs, buffers, and controls for its own vibratory equipment and selected legacy installations. The offering supports installed equipment uptime and lifecycle maintenance for customers in aggregate, mining, recycling, and process industries.
• Field Service & Technical Support Field service and technical support offerings provide on-site and remote assistance for installation, commissioning, troubleshooting, and maintenance of JVI vibratory equipment. The service is targeted at industrial customers in aggregate, mining, recycling, steel, plastics, and food & beverage operations.
