Over 90% vibration isolation
Boschert: rubber air springs for highly effective shock and vibration isolation
Key Facts
- Vibration isolation ratio > 90 %
Background
Boschert GmbH + Co KG in Lörrach is one of the leading manufacturers of sheet metal machines. The medium-sized company was founded in 1948 already and has established itself firmly as supplier in the sheet metal industry. Boschert is one of the few firms that still manufactures almost 100 percent of its products in-house. One thing is clear: Wherever high-performance machines punch, nibble or bend, vibrations occur. To reduce these, Boschert has used our solutions successfully since 2008.
Boschert Punching machine

The Challenge
Boschert’s Multipunch is a universal and flexible punching machine for various sheet metal processing tasks. Another punching machine, the CombiLaser with its advanced plasma cutting technology, cuts thin sheet metals to the highest quality. For both machines, vibrations must be reduced to the minimum as they influence the accuracy of the work machining and thereby directly affect the quality of the products.

The Solution
FAEBI® rubber air springs from Bilz have been used for many years for successful shock and vibration suppression of machines, appliances and aggregates. The construction design enables highly effective shock and vibration insulation without the disadvantage of excessive horizontal deflection. A collapse of the element due to overload or sudden pressure drop is impossible. Due to anti-slip plates on the base plate of the spring elements, additional floor anchoring is usually not necessary.
Rubber air springs from Bilz are excellently suited for:
- Source insulation of high-speed presses, forging hammers and other machines and aggregates with high dynamic interference forces
- Receiver insulation of measuring and testing machines as well as high-precision machine tools
Bilz FAEBI® rubber air springs have been successfully used for many years to reduce shock and vibration in machines, equipment and industrial systems.
Their special design enables highly effective shock and vibration isolation while avoiding excessive horizontal movement.
The FAEBI® system also offers important safety and installation advantages.
Even in the event of overload or a sudden loss of air pressure, the air spring cannot collapse completely.
Anti-slip plates integrated into the base of the spring elements provide additional stability. As a result, separate floor anchoring is generally not required.
FAEBI® rubber air springs are particularly suitable for:
Source Isolation
For machines that generate strong dynamic forces, including:
- High-speed presses
- Forging hammers
- Heavy industrial machinery
- Other machines and aggregates with high dynamic disturbance forces
Receiver Isolation
For protecting sensitive equipment from external vibrations, including:
- Measuring machines
- Testing machines
- High-precision machine tools
Results / Highlight
FAEBI® rubber air springs do not only offer excellent isolation characteristics, but also at the same time high mechanical stability.
“We are looking for a reliable solution to reduce the vibrations generated by the machine and to reduce vibrations inside the machine.

These are the areas of application for Bilz rubber air springs
Highly effective vibration isolation of
- sensitive measuring and test machines
- precision machining
- laser systems as well as optical and electronic devices
- vibration-isolated storage of vehicle, engine and transmission test benches
- foundation insulation
For both machines, vibration levels need to be kept as low as possible.
Excessive vibration can directly influence:
- Machining accuracy
- Cutting and punching precision
- Machine stability
- Surface and product quality
- Overall process consistency
An effective vibration isolation solution was therefore required to reduce both the vibrations generated by the machines and the vibrations occurring within the machine structure itself.
FAEBI® rubber air springs provide not only excellent vibration isolation performance but also a high level of mechanical stability.
This combination makes them particularly suitable for demanding industrial applications where both isolation efficiency and machine stability are important.
Customer Statement
“We were looking for a reliable solution to reduce the vibrations generated by the machine and also minimise vibrations within the machine itself.”
