To protect a precision machinery in a forge factory that carries out measurements and must not be affected by vibrations coming from the production department. A floating foundation was built, with dimensions of 12 x 6.5 m, height up to 1.80 m. A double layer of MEGAMAT ME 50/500 and MEGAMAT ME 50/650 was installed, with a variable density depending on the different load conditions and unbalanced, due to the particularity of the machinery.

Problem.

In this case the need of the owner was to limit as much as possible the vibrations transmitted to the measuring laboratory by a machine operating in the production area. The machine also did not have a homogeneously distributed load but was unbalanced on one side making the realization of the more complex anti-vibration system.

Suggested solution.

The proposed solution involves an anti-vibration system with an inner basement that rests on panels of the Megamat line with variable density in order to guarantee both adequate damping of the vibrations and also a constant subsidence of the system in order to balance the machinery's non-axial loads.

Result.

The degree of insulation obtained from the anti-vibration system is 80% with a constant deflection of the base.
