The Vibration Solution Introduces Industrial Silent Feet ~ To help minimize power equipment vibration

Saturday, February 28th, 2009

The Vibration Solution, in following with our motto: “Products for Peace and Quiet”, has created a new line of vibration dampening products geared toward the power equipment community, we proudly introduce “Industrial Silent Feet.” You may be asking yourself “Why would I need Silent Feet under my power equipment? And what possible benefits could they offer?” For some it can allow you to work a little longer, and for others it will simply give you a more peaceful workshop but for everyone they can help provide a safer working environment. Industrial Silent Feet will help reduce the noise and the actual structural vibration that your power equipment naturally puts off during normal operation. Industrial Silent Feet are sold in sets of four and all are our standard Anti-Walk feet. The reason we are selling them in sets of four is because some power equipment have four feet while others have two feet and two wheels, so we wanted to be safe and offer everyone four. Who knows maybe you can isolate two machines for the price of one, and if not you could have a back up set. The reason we went with the anti-walk exclusively for the Industrial Silent Feet is mainly for safety reasons some examples being: some power equipment tends to walk around during use and can actually pull cables out, vibration caused from power equipment may also have a tendency to knock stuff off your workbench or absolute worst case scenario have a piece of equipment fall down a few stories at a work site (we have actually heard stories about this).

We were also receiving requests for “Industrial Silent Feet” from people working on intricate projects that were disturbed by some sort of power equipment vibration that would actually result in them having to stop what they were doing or possibly resulting in a ruined project .

Other people, some of our team being in this category, use the new “Industrial Silent Feet” because we like to “burn the midnight oil” tinkering on odd projects. Although the noise from our power equipment doesn’t necessarily transfer through the house sometime that slight “Hummm” of high frequency vibration does. These feet make a significant difference by helping to reduce the vibration transferred through the structure.

So whatever your needs we hope the new “Industrial Silent Feet” will lend you a hand so you can enjoy some more peace and quiet brought to you by The Vibration Solution Team.

The Vibration Solution has released Silent Feet in TWO NEW COLORS ~ Maintaining our mission to help minimize the effects of washing machine vibration

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

The Vibration Solution due to many request has released Silent Feet in two new colors first is “Crimson Red Silent Feet”, and “Crimson Red Anti-Walk Silent Feet”. The second color is the “Ocean Blue Silent Feet” and “Ocean Blue Anti-Walk Silent Feet”. These new colors are designed for two reasons first is to blend in with the popular new colors of washing machines that are now available on the market or to just add a little color under your washing machine, a little spice for your laundry room.

The “Crimson Red Silent Feet” are designed to blend better with the new red washing machines for example the “Maytag Crimson Red Performance Series Front Load Washer (MHWE300VW)” is complemented by either of the Crimson Red Silent Feet.  Other washing machines that are out there to complement the Crimson Red Silent Feet is the “Electrolux Front Load Washer with IQ-Touch™ Controls EIFLW55IRR”

The “Ocean Blue Silent Feet” are designed to blend in better with new blue washing machines on the market for example the “Maytage Epic-Z front loading washing machine (MHWZ600TE)” Although with the amount of washing machine vibration problems that we hear of from the Epic-Z series I would not recommend it. Another blue machine is the “Electrolux Front Load Washer with IQ-Touch™ Controls EIFLW55HMB

Both of these colors include all of the same features and benefits of our Original Silent Feet vibration isolation pads but now they will add color and style to your laundry room.  So what ever color machine you have, no matter if you are trying to have your Silent Feet blend in,  or stand out, you will enjoy the new Colored Series Silent Feet.

Hello Welcome to The Vibration Solution

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

Hello and welcome to our new blog. I would like to start this blog off by telling a little about our start. We started with the question I ask you, “Does your washing machine walk around your laundry room, attack you when you enter, and shake your whole house?” Mine used to until we set out on a mission to solve this problem, we needed a product that would not only solve the problem of noise caused by washing machine vibration but also stop washing machine walking. 4 years later and a lot of testing, prototypes and headaches we have the solution, we call them Silent Feet. Now us being the perfectionist that we are, we wanted the best product possible.

To start we needed a top layer that would be able to withstand a roughly 250 pound machine shaking on top of it without breaking through, so we selected polyurethane. Next was the most important part we needed to select a base layer that would actually be absorbing or well dispersing the vibration. We did not want to use a foam or a product that would lose its quality over time, not did we want just some hard rubber that anyone could find, we wanted the best. That when we settled on a product produced named , simply, “Sorbothane”. Since its introduction, 25 years ago, Sorbothane® has been used in many varied energy absorbing product categories. Sorbothane Inc. engineers supplied the NASA design team with a unique Sorbothane® isolator to protect shuttle cameras from the violent forces thrust upon them during launch. Sorbothane® has achieved shock absorption levels of up to 94.7%. Unprecedented absorption levels are possible because Sorbothane® maintains stability and damping over a broad temperature range, enabling it to isolate damaging vibrations and impact shock in varied conditions. Its near faultless memory ensures a return to original shape, even after repeated compressions, making Sorbothane® ideal for a variety of engineering design applications requiring shock absorption, vibration isolation and acoustical damping. Currently, back to NASA, NASA is using Sorbothane to vibration/shock mount electronics on the new ARES I rocket due to launch in 2012.

So now that we had a material trusted by companies such as NASA, NASCAR, and Wilson just to name a few we had the perfect material. With the perfect material selected it came down the needing the perfect engineering. For this we gathered as many great minds as we could find, calling in the top Sorbothane engineers who had designed products for NASA, NASCA etcetera, and we called in friends and family who had experience in the industry and engineering backgrounds. With the wealth of knowledge we finally created our product, the definitive way to stop washing machine vibration and stop washing machine walking,we give you Silent Feet.

So Enjoy
