Control Machine Vibration
Learn how engineers use Sorbothane for isolation and damping techniques to control machine vibration and solve the challenges posed by resonant frequencies in machinery.
Noise Control in Machines
What Products Can Be Used for Noise Control in Machines? Noise is probably one of the most frustrating by-products of the technological era. Any time you have moving parts rubbing against one another, you’re going to have noise to some degree because friction always causes vibration. This means that since men have started creating machines […]
Sound Vibration – What It Can Do to A Machine
If you’ve ever driven a car that needed a tune-up, you probably already know that sometimes sound vibrations can spell big trouble. In fact, listening for vibrations may be one of the first things a mechanic does for a car that’s experiencing some trouble. Certain issues just sound different when you’ve spent your life working […]
Vibration Control – Why It’s Vital for Moving Parts
Any time there are moving parts in any sort of machine, there are bound to be vibrations. This is because moving parts cause friction, which releases energy in the form of heat and noise vibrations. These vibrations can be pretty harmless, causing nothing but annoyance. Sometimes you can’t even tell that they’re present. Sometimes, though, […]
Noise Control
How Sorbothane Dampens Noises in Machines Vibrations can be a major problem for machines, and engineers must work hard to dampen, control, or manage vibrations. Vibrations can cause problems by wearing down a machine more quickly than it would otherwise be long-lasting. Sometimes, though, vibration problems aren’t even harmful to the machine. They can simply […]
Sound Vibrations
How Those Sound Vibrations Can Wreck Your Invention Inventing a new machine, whether you intend to use it on your own around your home or sell the patent for it eventually, is exciting. You might think that you’ve got it made as soon as you get the machine to work. However, have you thought yet […]
Machine Vibration
How Vibration Destroys Machines Engineers have a huge job when it comes to designing and putting together new machines. There are tons of things to think about, including how all of the parts will work together and even what the machine will actually work like. One of the main things that an engineer must worry […]
Two Types of Vibration Control
Vibration is probably one of the most difficult things that an engineer deals with on a regular basis. There are many different types of vibration, but they can all, in the wrong places, frequencies, or quantities, be terrible for machines. On a major structure like a bridge, the wrong type of vibration can cause an […]
Vibration Dampener
How A Proprietary Vibration Dampener Can Save Your Knees If you’re a walker, a runner, or simply someone who spends long amounts of time on your feet in the workplace, you probably end up with sore knees once in a while. Basically, this happens because vibrations from every step you take, especially those on a […]
Camera Vibration
Photography Solutions: Dealing with Camera Vibration These days in order to be competitive in the field of artistic, every day, or journalistic photography, you really have to go where no man has gone before. You need to be able to shoot pictures in a variety situations and from a wide variety of angles, so this […]
