Abstract:
Getzner Werkstoffe as a manufacturer of polyurethane-material is involved in a
broad variety of projects for elastic decoupling of machines. Aim of the
presentation is to give a real-life overview to the material itself, to the
constructional execution of the decoupling and to the success of the reduction
measure.
In a first thematic block the distinctive features of polyurethane-material
for elastic decoupling will be discussed. Non-linear behavior will be
explained as well as recommendations for handling and processability.
Procedures for dimensioning and calculation of elastic bearings will be
illustrated as well as different ways of constructional execution.
As a conclusion the challenges and implemented solutions of realized projects
will be elaborated. For this purpose projects with discrete bearings (point
bearings) and full-surface-bearings (machine-foundations) will be presented.
