I'm New Here
I am researching ideas to eleminate noise and vibration transferred through the cooling ramp and 822 floor plate. I have an idea and have played around with it a little already but would like to know what the general population thought of it before I make it a go in my head.
I have some 1" thick Refactory ceramic fiber which looks like tight fiberglass weave. This stuff is to contain heat when melting metal in the casting process. This stuff is inches away from 2700 degree molten metal and you only get a little shrink out of it. That's it! Someone mentioned this stuff possibly breaking down over time.
My approch to this was to cut this material to size. Use contact spray(3M) to adhere it to the ramp and spray a little coaton the material itself to seal the fibers on the blanket then proseal the ramp in with rivets. Proseal sealing out any liquids.
Let me know what you think and if all this is even worth the trouble.
