Propulsion in Leisure Craft

Vibration isolation of engines and propulsion systems in leisure craft.

In leisure craft, the resilient mounting of the engine plays a key role in reducing the transmission of vibration and structure-borne noise to the hull.

The isolation system must be selected according to the engine mass, centre of gravity, operating speed range, cylinder configuration and propulsion arrangement. AMC-MECANOCAUCHO offers a range of marine engine mounts and elastomer compounds designed to provide the required balance between vibration isolation, damping, engine movement and system stability.

Solutions
Marine engine isolation:

Marine engine mounts are installed between the engine and the vessel structure to elastically decouple the propulsion system and reduce the transmission of vibration and structure-borne noise to the hull.

AMC-MECANOCAUCHO offers different configurations of Marine Engine Mounts, BRB and BSB, available with natural rubber and high-damping AMC SDD Rubber compounds. High-damping compounds help control excessive engine movement while maintaining effective vibration isolation, making them particularly suitable for eccentric engines and 1-, 2- and 3-cylinder engines, where engine movement can be significant.

Height-adjustment systems facilitate accurate engine positioning and alignment during installation, helping achieve the correct mounting conditions for the propulsion system.
