![]() This results in consistent vibration isolation with variable loading. Advantages of Firestone Marsh Mellow SpringsĬonstant Vibration Isolation with Changing Loads – The variable spring rate allows for a nearly constant natural frequency with changing loads. The concept has been tried with varying degrees of success over the years. Rubber springs have long been a subject of interest in the vehicular suspension and industrial application fields because of their reliability, corrosion resistance, low cost, and basic simplicity. Marsh Mellow is the trade name of fabric and rubber spring developed by Firestone Industrial Products in the early 1970’s. ![]() Industrial Isolator Applications – Marsh Mellow Airmount Isolators-a great alternative to conventional coil springs and other types of isolators. The systems are able to support vibrating loads and prevent its energy from disturbing the surroundings.Īirmount Isolators reduce structural noise, are available in a wide range of sizes, and extend equipment life through their superior isolation capabilities. Last but not least, the system requires no maintenance or lubrication.įirestone Airmount™ Isolators provide the highest degree of vibration isolation of any isolator on the market.įirestone Airmount Isolators are versatile and not only work to isolate delicate objects from external vibrations. The long life and durability necessary for millions of miles of heavy duty suspension use under adverse environmental conditions are also important factors in machine design. Strokes of up to 14 inches (360mm) are possible.įirestone Actuators are a further application of Firestone’s time proven Airide springs for truck and bus suspensions. The force capability is 100,000 pounds (45 Tons). This initial cost advantage is many times greater in the larger sizes.Īirstroke actuators are available in sizes ranging from 2.2 inches (56mm) to 37 inches (940mm) in diameter. Generally, initial cost is one-half or less than conventional pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders of the same force capabilities. Firestone Actuators are durable, operate well in corrosive and abrasive environments, easily accept misalignment and have a high ratio of stroke to collapsed height. They have advantages over traditional cylinders. They have been incorporated into both the new and innovative machinery designs.įurthermore, they are often used as replacement actuators for traditional pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders. Industrial & Agricultural Firestone Actuatorsįirestone Actuators have long been used in the industrial market as pneumatic actuators. ![]()
