Hourglass Shaped Cylindrical Vibration Absorbers: Vibration Protection for Your Equipment
In modern industrial production, minimising vibration is a key factor in ensuring equipment longevity, increasing operational precision and reducing noise levels. Larosi Srl, a reliable supplier of industrial components since 1970, offers a wide range of vibration-damping elements, including cylindrical vibration dampers with hourglass bodies. These innovative solutions are designed to effectively absorb and dissipate vibration energy, ensuring stability and reliability for your systems.
What are Hourglass Vibration Dampers?
Cylindrical vibration dampers are elements specifically designed to isolate machinery and equipment from vibration and shock loads. The special feature of hourglass-bodied models lies in their unique geometry. The central shrinkage (or ‘waist’) ensures optimal load distribution and allows the material to deform more evenly in different directions. This construction significantly improves vibration absorption characteristics compared to conventional cylindrical shock absorbers.
Advantages of the Unique Form
- Optimum damping: The hourglass shape allows the shock absorber to absorb vibrations more effectively in both axial and radial directions. This significantly increases its ability to handle multidirectional loads.
- Reduced resonance: Due to the specific material distribution, these vibration damping elements help to shift the system’s resonance frequencies, preventing them from coinciding with the equipment’s operating frequencies and thus minimising destructive oscillations.
- Longer service life: Effective vibration absorption reduces wear on mechanical parts, leading to a longer service life of the entire equipment and a reduction in maintenance costs.
- Improved stability: They ensure better equipment stability, which is essential for high-precision machinery.
Cylindrical vibration dampers with hourglass bodies are widely used in the automotive industry, in the maritime sector, in the manufacture of various mechanisms, in construction and in electronics.
