Vibration Damping Materials
Vibration dampers and shock absorbers are extremely useful in almost any device. Vibration damping solutions are very common in mobile devices, but if there is a motor or fan, this can also cause audible noise.
To prevent damage to electronic components, KGS’ silicone-free damping materials offer excellent impact buffering and vibration controls. With a wide variety of hardness and options for sheet or injection-molded parts (off-the-shelf and customized shapes), KGS will have a damping material most suited for your design. Selection would be based on available gap space (if applicable), problematic vibration (or audible noise) frequency, operating temperature, size area where the solution will be applied, and weight (if applicable).
KGS also offers specialized damping solutions for areas including fan vibration (fan fixers), microphone vibration (mic holders), hard disks (bushings and bumpers), and motors (sound dampers).
Vibration Damping Sheets
Vibration damping material in silicone-free sheets, each series designed for specific applications or issues, particular frequency ranges, and operating temperature range.
High-Vibration damping rubber sheet. Custom cutting, punching and other processing are available.(Thickness does not include release paper, adhesive and protection film)
Non-tacky silicone-free damper sheet with non-tacky and high-damping performance. Laminated PET film allows for durable slide and wear resistance.
Higher damping performance against vibration energy with higher shock-absorbing performance. Silicone-free, no siloxane outgassing. It is UL94V-0 certified product.
Silicone-Free, heat-conductive vibration damping sheet. Suitable for applications with both thermal and vibration/shock issues. Excellent vibration damping loss factor of 1.17.
Extremely low-hardness material enables higher absorbing performance for equipment and components with higher damping performance from the lower frequency.
Sound damper suppresses airborne and vibration sound simultaneously. Acrylic rubber (KGS formula) gives high sound insulation effect. Custom die cut upon request.
Control vibration generating by fans and motors. Improved damping allows for high performance from small sized sheet. Low specific gravity achieves to weight saving of equipment.
Ultra-thin, thermally conductive sheet, suitable for devices where clearance is limited. Converts kinetic energy to thermal energy for excellent shock attenuation.
Soft material isolates shockwaves from low frequencies and prevents them from traveling to devices and components. Operating temperature from -20 ~ +100ºC.
Vibration Damping Bushings & Other
Silicone-free, injection-molded bushings for use around screws for vibration damping, drop/shock absorption, and audible noise reduction. Special injection-molded damping solutions like snap-in fan holders, corner and edge bumpers for hard disks and fans, microphone noise dampers, and more.
High-performance damper using extremely low-hardness material with high damping performance. Using silicone free material.
VB / Extremely low-hardness version and high damping performance version are available. Using silicone free material.
Fan Fixer is a fixture that reduces vibrations, and noise of cooling fan. It allows for fan to be installed without screws. A snap structure enables simple one-touch installation.
Improved sound quality for microphone. Propagated external vibration of mechanical noise from motors, enclosures and so on is suppressed.
One touch vibration damper “OTVD Series” is a component which improves assembly processing by controlling impact and vibration.
