Source isolation
Generators, pumps, compressors, air-handling units and production machinery are separated using elastomeric mounts, springs and inertia bases.
Read the technical articleWe reduce the transfer of machinery and impact vibration into the structure with isolation systems selected for the source load and operating frequency.
VIBRATION ISOLATION GUIDE
Vibration isolation introduces controlled resilience between a vibrating source and its supporting structure. The aim is not simply to place soft material under a machine, but to keep the natural frequency of the isolated system safely below the dominant operating frequency while maintaining stability and alignment.
Generators, pumps, compressors, air-handling units and production machinery are separated using elastomeric mounts, springs and inertia bases.

Load, frequency, operating pattern and structural connections are evaluated together.
Base isolation for presses, compressors, pumps and rotating machinery.
Coordinated isolation of the generator base, exhaust and service connections.
Spring hangers, flexible connectors and mounts for AHUs, chillers, fans and pipes.
Floating floors for dropped weights, treadmills and repeated impact loads.
Floating floors and isolated wall-ceiling junctions in room-within-room systems.
Resilient layers limiting structure-borne transfer between technical and sensitive spaces.
PROJECT PROCESS
Record weight, speed range, duty cycle and support points.
Inspect the slab, base, pipework, ducts and rigid connections.
Calculate elastomer, spring, underlay or floating-floor requirements.
Check deflection, level, clearance and flexible connections under operation.
Share equipment data, operating conditions and site photographs so we can define the right isolation approach.
