The nature of anti-vibration requires a tailored approach to identify the most appropriate solution to meet the needs of an individual project.
Vibration at a glance
Over a sustained period of time, vibrations originating from machines have the potential to cause severe and lasting damage to support structures. As such it is necessary to isolate the source of these unwanted vibrations and preserve the life and performance of machinery.
Reducing vibration
An isolator is a resilient support which decouples an object from vibration. To attain effective isolation, a clear understanding of the source and type of disturbance is required. From here the appropriate anti-vibration solution can be identified. Common techniques generally incorporate springs, mounts and dampers, which directly reduce the level of energy that can be transferred.
