Press Release Body: VIBCO Vibrators provided external vibrators for a concrete
bridge repair project where internal vibrators could not be used effectively due to
the amount and configuration of rebar.

VIBCO Vibrators application engineers received an urgent call from an equipment
distributor whose customer had encountered a problem on a concrete bridge repair
job. The customer was preparing to pour concrete and realized that internal
concrete vibrators were not going to be able to effectively consolidate the concrete
due to the amount and configuration of rebar. The customer was working on a tight
schedule and needed a fast and effective solution.

VIBCO Vibrators application engineers recommended VIBCO US-1600 High Frequency
Electric Vibrators with the appropriate concrete form clamps. The engineers also
reviewed the customer\'s drawings and provided the correct placement and operation
time of vibrators to ensure proper consolidation and a smooth finish. The vibrators
were in stock and shipped directly to the jobsite via next-day delivery. The result
was an efficiently completed, on schedule, on budget concrete pour with excellent
consolidation and finish.

The VIBCO US-1600 features 9,000 Vibrations Per Minute (VPM), single phase
operation, produces 1,600 lbs of force, and operates at just 85 dB on A-Scale at 1
meter.

VIBCO offers free, 24 hour per day expert vibration support for sizing, selection
and placement of external concrete form vibrators. Fee-based, on-site consultation
and engineering support is also available.
