ANTI VIBRATION MOUNTS

Product catalog summary
Introduction
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® specializes in designing and manufacturing anti-vibration mountings to reduce vibrations and noise in machinery. Established in 1969, the company is known for quality and innovation in vibration isolation solutions.
Quality and Certification
Products are manufactured in-house, ensuring controlled stiffness and adhesion. The company is NATO-approved and holds ISO 14001:2004 and ISO 9001:2008 certifications, confirming compliance with environmental and quality standards.
Product Applications
Anti-vibration mountings are used in sectors like energy generation, air compression, and marine propulsion, extending machinery life and reducing noise and vibration.
Engineering and Design
Advanced engineering techniques are used to calculate anti-vibration solutions, considering factors like weight and frequency. Custom designs are available if standard products do not meet client needs.
Technical Specifications
Anti-vibration techniques involve understanding transmissibility and damping. Dynamic stiffness is greater than static stiffness, and the damping coefficient is crucial in design.
Materials and Compounds
Products are made from synthetic and natural rubbers, chosen for properties like heat resistance. Elastomer hardness is measured on the shöre scale, with thermal stability from -40°C to +80°C.
Durability and Testing
Durability is tested using dynamic machines to simulate real conditions, predicting the useful life of mounts. Creep and permanent deformation are considered in design.
Conclusion
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® offers comprehensive vibration isolation solutions, backed by experience and rigorous testing, adaptable to various applications.
BRB and BSB Type Mounts
BRB Type: Designed for shear and compression, offering large deflections and low natural frequencies for excellent vibration isolation. Suitable for mobile rotating machines.
BSB Type: Provides optimal stiffness and stability, ideal for applications where stability is a priority.
Technical Specifications
Includes tables listing dimensions, load capacities, and hardness for BRB and BSB models.
Certification
Mounts are certified by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) for use in marine machinery.
Graphs and Charts
Load deflection graphs and natural frequency charts illustrate performance characteristics.
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® BRT Type Engine Mounts
Designed as antivibration elements using rubber in shear and compression, providing stiffness and stability. Suitable for electrical cabinets and applications subjected to shocks.
Marine Mounts
Ideal for mobile applications, offering different stiffnesses on three axes for isolation.
FZ Mounts
Use Sylomer® polyurethane compounds for static applications, isolating sensitive equipment.
Hydraulic Mounts
Combine a spring and hydraulic damper, suitable for installations requiring isolation and motion control.
Hydrocone
Combines a spring component and hydraulic shock absorber, providing low dampening for vibration insulation and high dampening for movement control.
Specifications and Recommendations
General installation guidelines emphasize proper alignment and use of specified washers. Recommendations for different mount types ensure effective vibration isolation.

ANTI VIBRATION MOUNTS-4

Machinery, which by virtue of its design has reciprocating or rotating parts, creates vibration to some degree through imbalance of the moving parts. This vibration produced by a machine leads to different problems, such as a reduction in the machine's useful life through part wear, plus the transmission of this vibration to other non-insulated adjacent structures, giving rise to pro- blems of noise and vibration transmission FFT analysis of orders for a diesel engine For more than 45 years, AMC MECANOCAUCHO® has been developing the "AMC MECANOCAUCHO®" range of rubber- metal anti-vibration supports...

ANTI-VIBRATION MOUNTINGS If the frequency of excitation is times less the natural frequency, transmissibility is greater than one, then the force transmitted is greater than the excitation force, there is magnification of the vibrations. When we work in this area, the existing damping in the system is important. The greater the latter, the smaller the magnification of the vibrations will be. If the frequency of excitation is times greater than the natural frequency, transmissibility is less than one, or in other words the force transmitted is less than the force originated in the system, then...

ANTI-VIBRATION TECHNIQUES 1.-DYNAMIC TESTING MACHINE Dynamic stiffness can only be established by measurement on a dynamic test bench. Similarly, the damping coefficients of compounds are further values that can be measured with this type of machines. One concept that must be taken into account when designing an anti-vibration mount is its durability. A dynamic testing machine allows us to conduct fatigue tests that reproduce the real working conditions of the part so that its useful life can thus be predicted accurately. 2.- ANALYSIS OF SYSTEMS OF MORE THAN ONE DEGREE OF FREEDOM In actual fact,...

ANTI-VIBRATION MOUNTINGS GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ELASTOMERS NATURAL RUBBER Natural rubber is used in the manufacture of elastomers with high elasticity and tear strength. It is a strong material with excellent abrasion resistance. Among all the rubber families, natural rubber offers the best resistance to mechanical and dynamic loads. Natural rubber is not stable versus non-polar liquids such as mineral oils, lubricants, fuels and aliphatic and aromatic and hydrocarbons and chlorides. Its moderate ozone stability can be improved with additives. OZONE RESISTANCE This characteristic is important...
