Elastic suspension components for engine mounts and as coupling in boats, yachts and ships

Requirement

• Damping of vibrations
• Isolation of the structure-borne sound of the individual components
• Minimization of mechanical fatigue and thus premature failure
• Optimized transmission of forces
• Compensation for component tolerances

Solution

Passengers on ships want to have a comfortable trip without vibrations and noise caused by the machinery. Elastic mounts for the assemblies play a significant role in preventing vibrations from spreading to the ship body.

Elastic coupling components

Used as suspension components in ship transmissions, elastic couplings contribute to vibration-free power transmission. They are also used in the main drive as well as in the auxiliary drive.
