Foundation Isolation Solutions for Equipment & Mechines




Introduction

Vibrating, rotating, reciprocating and impacting equipment create machine-induced vibration and/or

shock, which is transmitted into their support systems. Rotating machines and equipment that are

not properly balanced produce centrifugal forces creating steady state and random vibration.

Machines generating pulses or impacts, such as forging presses, injection molding, impact testers,

hammers, centrifugal pumps and compressors are the most predominate sources of vibration and

shock.


If the equipment requiring isolation is the source of

unwanted vibration (Figure 1), the purpose of isolation

is to reduce the vibration transmitted from the

source

to its support structure. This vibration producing

equipment consists mainly of machines that

apply

severe dynamic forces in their supporting

structures.
