Protecting the environment from press strokes

Mechanical presses generate pulses during operation due to the kinematics of the masses moved. These are transmitted into the environment via the contact points.


While these pulsating reactions are considered when designing the press, this often does not apply or only to a very limited extent for the affected environment. Increasing commercial operations and industrial plants actively operate presses, punches and similar production machines in localities which are unsuitable for these dynamic work processes. This leads to parasitic oscillations which in the worst case are emitted far beyond the actual workshop area. However there are also other risks in addition to the ubiquitous, disturbing per-ception of the operation of the press:

Dynamic pulses generate vibrations which people find disturbing. Long before they are found to be disturbing by those directly affected, parasitic oscillations in the environment can cause long-term damage to the infrastructure. An elastic layer between the press and the environment that on the one hand alleviates the impact of the press stroke due to its elasticity and on the other hand reduces the kinetic energy as quickly as possible due to the high level of damping provides effective prevention against long-term damage in buildings.

AirLoc Schrepfer has extensive knowledge and many years of experience concerning the insulation of all types of presses. A large selection of elastomer insulation plates allows us to set up your press on insulations exactly to your requirements tailored so that it is decoupled. If the insulation plates are used in combination with our Jacmount® adjustable levelers or Wedgmounts® anti vibration mounts, the press can be simultaneously leveled in a simple manner.

We are glad to actively support you when installing your presses in an environmentally friendly manner. Simply complete our technical form to inform us of the necessary characteristic values of your machine.
