We have developed an elegant dynamic vibration absorber that can simply be bolted to pipe work or other structures to reduce vibration by 90-99%. Technically, this is very satisfying as the absorber is small, efficient and “sexy”…
Installed on petrochem pipe work attached to a reciprocating compressor generating high levels of vibration (illustrated here), this not only killed the vibration (eliminating wear and potential fatigue problems), but also produced a constant stream of curious staff wanting to see how such a small device could have such a big effect!
