Our marine applications are suitable for:
YACHTS
Vibration and secondary airborne noise significantly impact on the sense of well-being of those on board, to the extent of detracting from outstanding design, innovative technical features and luxurious interior fittings.
CRUISE SHIPS
IMO/SOLAS certified vibration isolation from Getzner ensures passengers enjoy their voyage in comfort: There is no sound transmission from entertainment areas or engines to the cabins.
SERVICE VESSELS
Getzner vibration isolation reduces noise levels for the crew: Standards-compliant accommodation and working conditions can be assured by decoupling the crew areas, the wheelhouse and the work platforms from the rest of the ship.
OFFSHORE PLATTFORMS
Vibration isolation from Getzner lowers lifecycle costs: Vibrations can be prevented from spreading to the structure by implementing appropriate measures. In this way, lifecycle costs can be lowered not just now but in the future.
BH&C Dynamics® and our manufacturing partners provide variety of vibration isolation materials, shock absorbers and high-tech elastomeric-damping hardware to the customer, including:
- Rubber foam filled fenders
- Rubber strip for boat-landing
