Vibration Damping
Vibration Damping For Applications
Vibration-damping solutions protect sensitive components from the potentially harmful effects of mechanical vibrations, shock and noise. Without adequate protection, these components may sustain damage that can impact performance and cause premature failure. Using specialized materials and advanced processes during conversion helps prevent damage and maintain product quality, integrity and reliability.
Advantage Converting offers manufacturing solutions that meet a range of vibration-damping needs. Our team has extensive experience solving conversion challenges and leveraging our innovative solutions to deliver top-class results.
The Importance of Damping Vibration in Manufacturing
Vibrations occur from interactions between internal and external forces that are common in everyday industrial and household applications. Dampers help control vibration by converting mechanical energy to thermal energy or by dissipating the energy, reducing the amount of energy transmitted through a component or device.
Implementing vibration-damping solutions during manufacturing helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of sensitive components and facilitates precise dimensions without nonconformance. These solutions can benefit an extensive product range, including:
- Medical devices
- Automotive components
- Consumer electronics
- Aerospace systems
- Telecommunications equipment
- Industrial machinery

FAQs
Q: When do I need a clean room?
Clean room manufacturing is primarily used when manufacturing sensitive materials that can be easily contaminated or affected by particles in the air. For example, at Advantage Converting, we have used our clean rooms to manufacture advanced wound care products, solar panel components, and vibration dampeners for the aerospace industry. However, a clean room can be used for any converted good. Our experts can work with you to determine clean room requirements for your project.
Q: What manufacturing processes does Advantage Converting perform in their clean rooms?
We can perform any manufacturing process in our clean rooms, including custom die cutting, laminating, slitting and rewinding, and roll-to-roll manufacturing.
Q: What is clean room manufacturing?
Clean room manufacturing is the use of an enclosed area with strict environmental controls to manufacture sensitive components. The controlled environment – or clean room – limits the presence of dust, airborne microbes, aerosol, and chemical vapors to prevent environmental contamination of sensitive components, such as those for medical, electronic, and aerospace applications.
Advantage Converting has multiple clean rooms that are available for all converted goods. Our clean rooms are certified as ISO 8 / Class 100,000 and ISO 7 / Class 10,000.
