AMC MECANOCAUCHO anti-vibration mounts for marine applications are designed to provide the elastic mounting of propulsion engines, generator sets and auxiliary equipment, reducing the transmission of vibration, structure-borne noise and dynamic forces to the vessel structure.
A correctly designed isolation system reduces vibration transmitted to the hull, improves acoustic comfort on board and protects the engine and associated equipment. It also contributes to improved reliability and service life under the demanding operating conditions encountered in marine environments.
Marine engines generate vibration and dynamic forces that can be transmitted to the vessel structure through their mounting points. A correctly designed vibration isolation system reduces this transmission whilst maintaining the stability of the propulsion unit under different operating conditions.
AMC MECANOCAUCHO offers a dedicated range of anti-vibration mounts for marine applications, including the Marine, Marine X, Marine XD, Marine XT, Marine V, Marine VD, BRB and BSB ranges, designed for the elastic mounting of propulsion engines, generator sets and auxiliary equipment.
Mount selection depends on factors including engine mass, load distribution, excitation frequency, installation configuration and the dynamic forces acting on the system.
Correct selection provides an optimum balance between vibration isolation, engine stability and movement control, whilst reducing the loads transmitted to associated equipment and the vessel structure.
