PTFE Slide Bearings
When movements need to be accommodated in structural connections, a sliding element will need to be employed in the design. Armadillo can design manufacture and supply a cost effective solution for applications such as vessel thermal, petrochemical applications, pipelines or building movement joints. A PTFE surface is applied to Armaload fabric reinforced or ROF bearing pads where higher loads and rotation may occur.
Armaload - DLW66
Armaload DLW66 random oriented fiber (ROF) bearing pads are made from masticated elastomer which is fully cured and fiber reinforced. The random fiber reinforcement provides higher tensile and compressive strength, stiffness, tear resistance and durability than unreinforced rubber pads. ROF bearing pads will support loads up to 2,000 psi before breakdown.
Armaload - Mil-C-882
Armaload is a preformed fabric bearing pad which meets MIL-C-882, AASHTO 14.7.6.1, AASHTO 14.7.6.2 and AASHTO 18.10.1 specifications. Manufactured from compressed layers of closely woven lightweight fabric, bound withmaterial will support loads up to 12,000 psi before breakdown.
Armacork
Offered in various sheet sizes and thicknesses Armacork is the ideal entry level material to offer a cost effective and fast vibration control solution for many industrial applications.
The introduction of Armacork between the machine base and the supporting foundation effectively prevents the transmission of structure borne disturbance to the adjacent areas.
Neoprene Pads
Some applications do not warrant the expense of a custom made Vibration Control pad but do require some element of resilience in the installation.
In such cases, for slight surface irregularities, Industrial Grade pads can be provided by Armadillo NV as an alternative low cost solution.
Vibstop
Vibstop isolation material is a specifically designed vibration absorbing medium. Produced as a cost-effective solution to isolating foundations whether it be existing machinery or installing new equipment.
Armacush
Armadillo Armacush is an ideal product which not only gives excellent long term performance but is also specifically designed for ease of installation to avoid costly delays in the construction process. Designed for full area coverage the problem of temporary shuttering or designing the mass to be able to span bearing centres is avoided.
Armadillo NV are a dedicated manufacturer and supplier of all kinds of Vibration Control products. Industry experience ranges from Low Frequency Isolation for Microscopes and Semiconductor Manufacture up to heavy weight Industrial Power Presses and Forge Hammers.
Armadillo Noise & Vibration originally specialised in the design and manufacture of a wide range of products to control structure borne vibration. Solutions offered range from isolated machine bases, building protection from underground train lines to custom bearings for cinema auditoriums. While designing these systems we regularly had to accommodate movement between two elements. Invariably this required the design of PTFE slide bearings. Armadillo PTFE slide bearings are compact, high load capacity and offer exceptional working life spans.
