AirLoc bolt-on wedgemounts with high damping pads smooth out an Amada Turret press

Spacesaver Corp is a market leader in providing high density storage systems that optimize customers time, space, and security. They recently installed an Amada Coma 567 Turret Press to fabricate metal sheets used in one of their product lines, and realized that their old isolation leveling pads were not doing the job. When the turret positioned heavy gage sheets, they would create vibration in the frame of the machine, and the entire turret would rock back and forth.

AirLoc wedgemount levelers and damping pads provide the precision positioning and vibration isolation required for delicate Kayex Crystal Growing Equipment

Kayex develops and manufactures crystal growing equipment for the semiconductor and photovoltaic materials industry. These high-temperature, vacuum furnaces are used to grow single crystal silicone ingots. The ingots are then sliced into wafers that are used as the substrate for either computer chips or high efficiency solar cells. This is a process which obviously requires precision and reduced vibration levels to insure high yields from the equipment.
