AMC Mecanocaucho®'s vibration isolators for HVAC equipment
All machinery, which by virtue of its design has reciprocating or rotating parts, creates vibration to some degree through the imbalance of the moving parts.
This vibration produced by a machine leads to different problems such as a reduction in the machine’s useful life through part wear plus the transmission of this vibration to other non-insulated adjacent structures, giving rise to problems of noise and vibration transmission. AMC MECANOCAUCHO® has been developing for over 45 years different ranges of vibration isolators that can solve problems like the ones described above.
Taking into account some data of the machine such as weight, mount positions, type of machine, Center of Gravity, frequency of excitation, etc., AMC MECANOCAUCHO® does vibration calculations in order to suggest the most appropriate vibration isolator solution for each case. The proposed solutions are commonly taken using following types of antivibration mounts: BRB ANTIVIBRATION, BSB ANTIVIBRATION and DRD ANTIVIBRATION mounts (Rubber-Metal solution), AMC Vibrabsorber mounts (spring mounts solution), Sylomer® and FZ+Sylomer® mounts.
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® is a ISO 9001 certified company by DET NORSKE VERITAS DNV. AMC MECANOCAUCHO® is officially approved by NATO under the id number NCAGE 0230B- compliant supplier.
Rubber curing properties are controlled by Rheometrical instruments as well as extensometers, dynamometers and durometers. Elastical properties are measured with several axial and radial dynamometers as well as with a servohydraulic dynamic bench test from Instron-Schenck®.
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® has certificates of external laboratories that have tested gearbox mountings to measure the alteration of the stiffness properties during a representative life cycle of a wind turbine.
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® uses Instron-Schenck® servohydraulic dynamic bech tests to measure stiffness variation for generator mountings during a representative life cycle of a wind turbine.
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® does a process control of the manufactured antivibration mountings. The percentage of sampling is according to customer requirements.
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® can keep track of the finished goods for those customers that require traceability of their products. Rheometrical tests are linked to each batch of production. This allows verification of the vulcanization properties of the rubber mix used. Foundry castings can incorporate the date of manufacturing. Finished goods can incorporate a serial number. This allows us to check stiffness values of the antivibration mounts as well as other complementary information.
After studying client specific needs for the application and the isolation performance required, AMC MECANOCAUCHO® can produce a new design if standard products are not suitable.
AMC MECANOCAUCHO® can offer customers a wealth of experience and know how in measuring noise and vibration to effect optimum solutions to those issues. AMC MECANOCAUCHO® provides its customers with all its experience and knowledge in measuring vibrations and noise in the field so as to reduce machine-produced emissions of noise and vibrations.

AMC SNUBBERS FOR SEISMIC APPLICATIONS:
The goal of the system is to avoid the structure borne noise installing elastical mounts that are embedded in the concrete floating floor. The process of elevation is done once the concrete is dry. The AMC-MECANOCAUCHO type FZH mounts incorporate a polyurethane elastomer called Sylomer®. This material offers optimal elastic and mechanical properties for the application. The AMC-MECANOCAUCHO type FZH mounts can be manufactured in different densities of Sylomer to match the natural frequency needed on the application. The process of levelling is simple and effective. The density of mount per m2 is 1.12 and the distance between the mounts is 0.9m.
