Operation & Maintenance

Vibrations from equipment can be managed through different methods, such as incorporating damping elements, using isolation mounts, employing isolated foundations, or simply adjusting operational parameters. The choice of method depends on variables such as the type of equipment, its mass, operating frequency, and operating environment. Contact our engineers for guidance.

To control press movement, employ anti-vibration pads to dampen sudden impacts and vibrations, thereby reducing equipment stress. Optimise the foundation design for stability and vibration absorption, which can significantly decrease press movement. Consult with equipment manufacturers or specialists such as Farrat for insights into tailored measures and solutions for your machinery.

There are several methods available to manage the transmission of vibration from equipment to the surrounding area. The choice of the appropriate system relies on factors such as the type of equipment, its mass, operating frequency, dynamic loads, and the operating environment. Various options are at your disposal, including specialised mounts or pads created to absorb and dampen vibrations. These can be positioned between the machine and its foundation or between its components, and isolated foundations or floating floors beneath the machine can reduce direct contact with the floor, thereby minimising vibration transmission. For custom solutions tailored to your machinery’s specific characteristics, you can seek advice from Farrat.

We use modal analysis technique to identify and address potential structural issues before they lead to operational problems or failures. Regular modal analysis as part of a predictive maintenance program can contribute to the early detection of structural issues, promoting the longevity and reliability of the machine.
