Why should vibrations be taken into account?
Excessive vibrations that may occur suddenly or gradually in machines are not always given sufficient importance. But the consequences are manifold, for example:
Good insulation will be beneficial in terms of component life and will prevent unexpected shutdowns, the costs of which can be exorbitant. In the automotive industry, an average of 20,000 euros loss per minute of activity. Other studies have shown that a 25% of the motors fail within a year, and that 50% of the problems come from the bearings, due to various factors, of which vibrations are predominant. If it is proven, why not act beforehand and prevent the harmful effects of vibrations? Epidor Seals and Rubber Technology can help equipment manufacturers and plants to control and isolate vibration with a wide range of vibration dampers and mounts, which we detail in our catalog. “I'm pickin’ up good vibrations (oom bop bop bop)”
- Noise nuisance due to increased noise
- Decrease in the safety of plant personnel
- Increased energy expenditure
- Unnecessary maintenance
- Reduced machine availability
- Quality defects
- Property damage
- Unscheduled shutdowns
