The SKF Vibracon chock is a versatile, adjustable steel chock that offers a superior alternative to traditional rigid steel chocks, shims, or epoxy resin chocks. Its innovative design allows for re-adjustment, enabling precise alignment of machinery throughout its lifetime.
Benefits of Using SKF Vibracon:
- Eliminates soft foot problems:
Whether dealing with twisted skids or unmachined bases, Vibracon ensures parallel and angular alignment. - No base frame machining required:
Save time and effort by avoiding unnecessary machining. - Re-adjustable:
Vibracon can be reused and adjusted for realignment, extending its lifespan. - Faster alignment with laser equipment:
Reduce alignment time by up to 50% when combined with laser alignment tools. - No curing time:
Unlike epoxy resin chocks, Vibracon doesn’t require curing, speeding up the process. - Time-efficient installation:
Avoid the time-consuming fitting of rigid steel chocks. - Dry dock installation:
Chocking can be completed while the ship is in dry dock, with alignment checks and adjustments performed after launch. - Minimal foundation machining:
In most cases, only local machining (where elements are fitted) is necessary. - Reduced chocking time:
Vibracon speeds up the installation process. - Easy installation:
No special skills or tools are required for installing SKF Vibracon chocks.
