Bearing
Rubber-metal bearings are used in general mechanical engineering and industrial technology to provide flexible mounting for machines and units, dampen vibrations and reliably absorb shocks. Applications such as machine feet, buffers or conical mounts serve to reduce dynamic forces generated during operation and minimize their transmission to foundations, frames or adjacent components. This reduces noise and structure-borne sound while simultaneously protecting sensitive machine parts. In addition to vibration isolation, rubber-metal elements compensate for misalignment, manufacturing tolerances and thermal expansion. They ensure precise machine positioning, increase stability and contribute to smooth, even operation. Overall, they improve operational safety, extend the service life of machines and systems and make an important contribution to reliable and low-maintenance operation in industrial applications.
