Noise and other vibrations are often inherent in various machinery and equipment. This is especially true in case of machines like diesel gen sets, hydraulic systems and pumps that normally consist of a variety of moving parts that rub against each other and create a lot of friction. It is extremely important to isolate vibration in such cases because such vibrations not only interfere with the machine's efficiency, but when left unchecked, over time the cumulative effect of such excessive vibration may even result in irrevocable damage of the machine parts, and the machine might need replacement sooner than required.
There are different types of anti vibration rubber mountings that are used for absorbing & isolating vibrations/ noise from operating machine. One of the most popular one is cushion foot mounting, also known as cushion foot mounts and cushion mountings. These are high performing anti-vibration mountings that are specially designed for varied applications. Cushion Foot Mountings can be easily installed on various machines, as friction pads are used in combinations in the mounts. The mountings are utilized where large deflection, high service life and superior load capacity is required. Therefore, these mounts find expensive application in machines such as diesel generators, screens, crushers, compressors, hydraulic machinery, cooling systems, printing stationery machines, exhaust systems, pumps & radars among others.
Types of Rubber Used in Manufacturing Cushion Foot Mountings:
Special quality rubber is used as raw material for designing an advanced range of cushion foot mounts. Usually, they are designed using any of the following types of rubber:
• Natural Rubber
• Neoprene
• Silicone
• SBR
• EPDM
Advantages of Cushion Foot Mountings:
Although the mount design in cushion foot mounting allow a high amount of deflection, they are extremely compact in weight. Some of the advantages of these mountings are enlisted under:
• Available in variety of dimensions
• Compact in weight
• High resistance to extreme operating conditions
• High resistance to surface abrasion
• High resistance to oils, grease and other chemicals
• Tight tolerances in dynamic stiffness rate
• Available in variety of dimensions
• Wide load rating options
• Easy to customize
• Easy to install
• Easy to maintain
Functions of Cushion Foot Mountings:
The three most important functions of the cushion foot mounts are briefed below:
• Absorb shock
• Isolate vibrations
• Reduce noise
Application Areas of Cushion Foot Mounts:
Packed with quality attributes like compact design, high functionality and easy installation & maintenance, cushion foot mountings find application in multiple areas. They are especially used to control noise/ vibration and enhance service life of the following machines & equipment:
• Diesel Generators
