Air Springs for Vibration Isolation

AIR ISOLATORS:

Toolern Engineering Supplies PTY LTD supply air springs which make very low natural frequencies possible, from 0.5 to 3.5 Hz depending on the type. 

Applications include:

  • diesel engines, generators
  • foundation mounts
  • heavy machinery
  • measuring instruments
  • power looms
  • vehicle test rigs
  • washing machines

 

With loads ranging from 0.5 kN to more than 440 kN, air isolators provide effective mounts for sensitive measuring instruments as well as heavy foundations.

Advantages:

Constant operating height
The operating height of air springs can be adjusted via the air pressure, regardless of the load. There is no static deflection as with other spring components. A user-friendly, automatically
functioning control system guarantees a uniform operating height, even in the case of alternating loads.
Lateral stability
Air springs have
excellent lateral stability. Isolators attain a lateral rigidity of up to
100% of the vertical rigidity, depending on the type.

Load-independent isolation properties
The spring stiffness is proportional to the load capacity. Vibration isolation is virtually independent of the load, so natural frequencies remain constant even with fluctuating loads. The broad load range of air isolators provides possibilities for standardising the spring types in assembly families.

Low installation height
Air isolators have
a low design height and no static deflection.
