MountsMounting Plate

The picture shows a mechanical part consisting of several components. At the top is a black cylindrical element mounted on a silver housing. The silver housing has a slightly conical shape and bears a label with the inscription “VULKAN”. Underneath is a black round component mounted on an orange-colored base. The orange base has four rounded corners and is attached to the corners with black bolts.

Achieving precise alignment of rubber mounts can be a complex task. Ensuring the base plate of the mount is perfectly parallel to the machine foot is crucial for effective vibration damping.
Traditionally, this involved using four adjustment bolts to eliminate any angle between the cap and the base plate. Next, filling the gap between the mount's base plate and the foundation using two-component epoxy resin or custom-made steel-fitted blocks.
Say goodbye to these complexities because the ChockDesign Mounting Plate offers an economical alternative. By utilizing the adjustment bolts in the Mounting Plate, you can eliminate any angle between the mount's foundation and base plate. Next, the four ChockDesigns positioned at the corners effectively fill the gap. Securely tighten the base plate, Mounting Plate, and machine foundation together using four foundation bolts.
Additionally, with the Mounting Plate, the mounting system can be readjusted whenever needed. Simply loosen the foundation bolts and make necessary adjustments to the ChockDesign to achieve your target alignment. This allows for major time savings, reducing the typical installation time for a resiliently mounted machine from several days to just a few hours.
