■Product Features (Vibration-Damping Rubber) Vibration-damping rubber is a rubber mat material with uneven surfaces on both sides, designed to alleviate vibrations and shocks through contact with the installation surface. By absorbing and dispersing vibrations generated by equipment, it contributes to reducing vibration transmission and noise to the surrounding environment. It is widely used as cushioning material, vibration-damping material, and soundproofing material in various equipment such as refrigerators, heat pumps, cooling towers, condensers, packaged air conditioners, and blowers. It is easy to install, providing vibration-damping and soundproofing effects simply by placing it under the target equipment. Additionally, it can be easily cut to specified dimensions according to installation conditions, allowing for adaptation to equipment shapes and installation spaces. ■Processing Method (Water Jet Cutting) Water jet cutting is a hydraulic cutting machine that uses high-pressure water to cut materials. It processes by spraying high-pressure water. The injection nozzle can be changed according to the processing material, allowing for the production of high-quality products in a short time. Furthermore, the dimensional tolerances that were significantly affected by traditional manual processing are greatly improved, resulting in stable processing accuracy. The taper on the cut surface from press processing can also be improved with water jet cutting.

■Q&A Q: Can you accommodate vibration-damping rubber in polygonal shapes? A: We can accommodate polygonal shapes, including octagons. Q: Is it possible to handle small lots or prototypes? A: Since no die is required, we can produce small lots and prototypes. Q: Can you specify sizes according to installation conditions? A: We can accommodate dimension specifications based on the equipment used and the installation space. ■Processing of Vibration-Damping Rubber Gaskets at Daiko At Daiko, we provide comprehensive support for rubber gaskets for vibration-damping applications, including material selection, processing method proposals, and shape considerations.
