Education & Research

Controlling vibration in buildings, precision machining to sensitive inspection and testing equipment.

Farrat work with education and research facilities that use machinery of an industrial scale to ensure that staff and students can work accurately and safely for example in specialist R&D laboratories.

Typically sensitive, highly specified equipment is housed in universities and research facilities. Therefore, the importance of controlling vibration is critical for the following reasons;

Instrument performance: Many laboratory instruments are sensitive to vibration and can produce inaccurate or inconsistent results in the presence of excessive vibration.

Productivity: Excessive vibration can cause equipment to malfunction or require frequent maintenance, leading to lost time and reduced productivity.

Experiment reproducibility: Many laboratory experiments require precise and consistent conditions to ensure reproducibility. Excessive vibration can interfere with these conditions and compromise the reproducibility of experimental results.

Environmental impact:

Environmental impact: Vibrations can also have environmental consequences, such as noise pollution and structural damage to buildings.
