Orbital 3000
This page shows many beneficial and unique features of VFSI's Orbital 3000 shaker. Take a look and see why VFSI's Orbital 3000 excels in performance, reliability, and durability.
The Orbital 3000 shaker weighs 3800 lb and is 10’ 3” long and 5’ 1" wide. The vibrators extend another seven inches on each side. The 26-1/2" weir height is one of the lowest in the industry, allowing placement on rigs with limited bell nipple-to-pit drop.

The Orbital 3000 uses elliptical motion for extended screen life and excellent conveyance. The large screen area of 30 ft2 and high g forces of 6.9 g’s results in exceptional performance. Shaker performance can be characterized by the product of screening area and g's. The Orbital 3000 runs at 6.9 g's (7.5 g's optional), provides 188 ft2-g's. This is one of the largest performance ratings in the industry.
All baskets are fully seal welded and stress relieved. Seal welding reduces corrosion, adding years to machine life. The Orbital 3000 pretension screening machine requires minimal maintenance, even in oil based muds.
Two layers of powder coat with baked on zinc-rich epoxy first coat provides corrosion resistance. The final coat provides abrasion resistance. Most fasteners are stainless steel, providing excellent corrosion resistance.
The Orbital 3000 is exceptionally quiet, due to efficient isolation, orbital motion and a sturdy base. With the machine running, it is possible to stand a nickel on edge at each corner of the machine.

The Orbital 3000 comes with a tool box. This box contains equipment for operation and basic maintenance of the Orbital 3000 shakers and Italvebras vibrators.
wedge block installation tool |
vibrator grease |
allen wrench set |
1/4" metric deep socket set |
extra isolator |
The explosion proof electrical box is powder coated, has an “O” ring seal on the door and rubber boots on the switches. Customer wiring consists of hooking power to the terminal strip.
Stainless steel spring isolators provide superior isolation and corrosion resistance. An Orbital 3000 resting on flat concrete will not “walk”.
The Italvebras vibrators are exceptionally durable. The Italvebras vibrators are capable of delivering 6 g’s of vibration to the Orbital 3000.
The angle of the screen basket can be adjusted from 1 to 5 degrees from either side using a hand crank.
