Vibration damping plate

Passive Damping Devices Experiencing excessive vibrations in sensitive mechanical structures or rotating machinery? Tuned Mass Dampers (TMD) and Tuned Mass Absorbers (TMA) provide a simple and effective solution to reduce them. TMA and TMD are mechanical resonant devices used to suppress or absorb vibrations. When installed properly on a machine or structure, they draw away vibrational energy from the structure or machine and dissipate it internally, hence reducing their motion. They do not require a redesign of the target structure/machine and do not interfere with the main structure/machine function. This makes them an ideal solution for existing machine retrofitting/troubleshooting. TMA and TMD have been successfully implemented on rotating machines such as large water pumps, rotary no-break systems, chemical reactors, wind turbine gearboxes and scroll compressors etc. ROTATING MACHINERY Whenever alignment and balancing of the rotating equipment has been performed but the vibration level is still too high Excessive structural vibration excitation during ramp-up or slow-down (stirring machine, flywheel, etc.) MECHANICAL STRUCTURES Whenever isolating the structure from excitations coming from the ground is not possible or does not give good results Whenever increasing the system stiffness is not an option Piping vibration INSPECTION MACHINES, ROBOTS, ETC Time-to-stabilization improvement when fast decelerations cause structural oscillations (e.g. robot arm, inspection machine with moving camera, etc.) WIND TURBINE TONALITIES Wind turbine gear box vibration/noise emission reduction
