Vibration protection for 170 t precision machine

For Getzner, this project carries huge significance: it is one of the heaviest and largest machine bearings ever installed in the company's history. The Sylodyn® bearings have to be able to withstand a permanent load of 615 metric tons – machine and concrete foundation. The order was received via the firm DBI-Ingenieure, who had been appointed by the client to conduct acoustic measurements. The contractor Blanck installed the elastic bearing on site under the guidance of Getzner. "The experts from Getzner were extremely professional and the entire process could not have been organised any better. Thanks to the ease of installation of the vibration protection solution, there were no problems in meeting the project deadline," explains Denis Dreyer, Project Manager at Blanck SA. The acoustics expert was similarly glowing in his appraisal: "We are familiar with Getzner from several reference projects and have enjoyed nothing but positive experiences when working with the vibration specialists," adds Daniel Beaujon from DBI-Ingenieure.
