Anti-vibration mounts are designed to reduce the transmission of vibration and shock between machinery and its supporting structure, with the AMC mount available through YB Components one of the best products on the market.
How Anti-Vibration Mounts Work
The AMC machine mount works by isolating vibrations to protect both the machine itself and the surrounding environment, not only ensuring efficient operation but also extending the equipment’s service life. Without expertly installed anti-vibration mounts, there are potential safety hazards, as well as more wear and tear on the machinery and increased noise pollution.
Anti-vibration mounts are usually with a combination of metal and rubber, with this combo allowing them to effectively absorb and dampen the majority of vibrational forces.
The Risks of Not Using Anti-Vibration Mounts
Constant vibration generated by a machine can cause its smaller components to loosen or wear prematurely. Eventually it can cause a complete failure. Constant vibrations are even more damaging to precision machinery, where even slight vibrations can compromise their accuracy. This then leads to defects in production or generally compromised results.
Machinery not fitted with proper AMC machine mounts can also generate excessive noise, which not only disrupts the working environment but also poses noise pollution health risks to workers. This is because prolonged exposure to high noise levels has been linked to hearing damage and increased stress among employees working in the vicinity of the machinery.
Excessive vibration also causes instability, making machinery shift or move unexpectedly. This is particularly dangerous for large equipment for obvious reasons, with sudden movements having the potential result in serious accidents, or at least damage to other nearby equipment. An AMC mount like those available through YB Components will make sure that all such vibrations are absorbed effectively, keeping the machinery stable and safe to operate.
Applications Requiring Anti-Vibration Mounts
Anti-vibration mounts are vital pieces of equipment through a wide variety of sectors, including construction sites and industrial plants, as well as various transport systems where they help produce smoother operations in vehicles by damping the engine vibrations. You will find them used frequently in manufacturing facilities where the likes of an AMC machine mount are used to stabilise conveyors, compressors and assembly lines. HVAC systems also rely on them to reduce noise and vibration from fans and blowers.
For industries where precision is paramount, anti-vibration solutions become even more vital as even minor vibrations can lead to compromised results, making these mounts essential for equipment such as medical technology and electronics.
