Isolating damper - Import export

These isolators are the combination of a bearing and dampers in a single device; the latter are typically hysteretic dampers of steel and/or fluid viscous dampers. As such, they are characterized by a high damping capacity. The bearing can be multidirectional or unidirectional. Isolators can also include shock transmitters or mechanical fuse restraints. Experimental hysteretic cycles of a flat sliding isolator with steel hysteretic dampers. Installation of a flat sliding isolator with steel hysteretic dampers, at the Santuario 'Madonna delle Lacrime' of Siracusa. Flat sliding isolators with steel hysteretic dampers, installed in the railway lines "Caracas-Cua" and "La Encrucijada-Puerto Cabello", Venezuela.

Adding some supplementary features to the basic bearing types, FIP INDUSTRIALE can also produce special bearings, suitable for targeted purposes. These are the main types: Negative load bearings Also known as "anti-lifting" or "double-acting" bearings. These devices are also capable of resisting vertical tension loads, commonly denominated "negative". Load measuring bearings They permit in-situ measuring of vertical loads acting on the bearings. Depending on the technology used, measurements can be made next to the bearing or remotely, at any time of the bearing life span. Bearings with dampers These are a combination of one multidirectional or unidirectional bearing with hysteretic and/or viscous dampers. They are also called "flat sliding isolators with dampers". Bearings with shock transmitters Sliding bearings coupled with shock transmitters. In case of sudden movements, for example seismic movements, the shock transmitters prevent the relative movements of the structural eleme
