Vibration Isolators
Sorbothane Compared with Other Vibration Isolators Vibration is one of the most important things that engineers deal with. Too much of the wrong type of vibration in an electronic system can cause annoying noises and overly fast wear and tear, and excessive vibration in a bridge system can cause violent swaying and eventual collapse. Vibration […]
Vibration Solution
Whether you’re a computer designer or a computer owner, you have to deal with vibrations. For designers and engineers, vibrations can make or break a product, since excessive vibration can actually cause your computer to wear out and fall apart much more quickly. Computer owners, too, have to deal with vibrations, both vibrations from their computers and vibrations that affect their computers. Luckily, though, sorbothane, a unique visco-elastic vibration absorbing and controlling substance that can help both designers and owners of computers control vibrations in different ways.
What Does a Vibration Dampener Do?
The Two Sides of Vibration Vibrations are both an essential phenomenon enabling us to interpret sounds and a potential detriment causing mechanical failures. Whether you’re building an engine, a cell phone, or a computer, vibrations can cause major mechanical problems. Unmanaged vibrations in a machine can lead to noise and ultimately breakdowns. Foundational Concepts: Vibration […]
Anti-Vibration Mount
Keep It Steady With A Camera Anti Vibration Mount Whether you’re shooting a video of a roller derby match in a noisy arena, mounting a camera on a moving vehicle or shooting still footage at a child’s birthday party, the chances of vibrations occurring against your camera are very high. You can take care of […]
Vibration Control
Build a better machine with Sorbothane Technology. This technology advances so quickly that it can be difficult for an inventor or manufacturer to stay ahead of the pack. Learn how Sorbothane Technology controls vibrations and dampens noise.
Anti-Vibration Pads For Musicians
Discover how anti-vibration pads can help musicians protect musical equipment from damage caused by vibrations and enhance sound quality in both studio settings and challenging tour environments.
Anti-Vibration
Controlling vibration – or anti-vibration control – is very important for many reasons including damage to the human body and damage to structural or mechanical systems. Some of the most common anti vibration control application include pads, gloves, specially designed feet for machinery, mounts and tables. Of course these are just a sampling of the […]
Anti-Vibration Pads
Sorbothane produces viscoelastic polymer anti-vibration pads that are a versatile and affordable way to isolate shock and vibration as well as reduce noise levels. Our anti-vibration pads as well as our sheet stock and other standard products are made with Sorbothane®, a highly-damped, viscoelastic, polymeric solid that “flows” like a liquid under load. Sorbothane is […]
Vibration Suppression Explained
Vibration suppression is the practice of using damping, isolation or a cancellation solution to reduce or eliminate vibrations that would otherwise result in loss of performance or limit the useful life of a system. Tackling the most challenging problems related to vibration suppression is what Sorbothane® was invented for. Its unique, liquid solid (viscoelastic) properties […]
Vibration Pad Applications
Vibration pads are used in many applications for isolating noise, prolonging machine life, reducing maintenance costs, and reducing excessive wear and tear. Vibration pads can reduce damage to everything from equipment to structures and even the human body. Learn more about vibration pads.
