Particle damping is most similar to the behavior of gravel thrown into the sand on the beach, where the sand particles immediately reduce and dissipate the kinetic energy of the impact. Particle damping technology is one of the most advanced solutions of impact and vibration damping with several advantages. General damping is performed by only a single mass, while in the case of particle damping, several small auxiliary masses perform this task.
The particle dampers are highly non-linear dampers whose damping, is derived from a combination of loss mechanisms, including friction and momentum exchange, which dissipate the vibrations into heat. Because of the ability of particle dampers to perform through a wide range of temperatures and frequencies and survive for longer life, they have been used in applications such as the weightless environments of outer space or in aircraft structures.
State-of-the-art materials and technologies
Booster Kinetic isolation pads use a highly efficient combination of materials and technologies used in advanced industry.
The outer cover of the Booster Kinetic isolation pads is made of a multi-layered, special, leather-effect material that is reinforced with an inner textile layer. The outer cover is cut and inscription accurately using a laser process, and the layers are sewn with an extremely strong polyamide fiber, which is also used in parachuting.
Inside the Booster Kinetic isolation pads are precisely sized silicon dioxide crystal grains with a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, providing extremely effective particle attenuation over a wide frequency range.
Made by hand
Each Booster Kinetic isolation pads is handmade in the EU. After the last quality control, the Booster Kinetic isolation pads sets are placed in an exclusive aluminum box.
