👉 Bush engineering refers to the specialized field focused on the design, installation, and maintenance of bushings—rubber or polymer components used in mechanical systems to absorb vibrations, reduce noise, and prevent wear between moving parts. These bushings are strategically placed in applications like engines, transmissions, and hydraulic systems to dampen vibrations, isolate components, and extend equipment lifespan. Their design involves selecting materials (e.g., nitrile, EPDM, or silicone) tailored to operating conditions—such as temperature, load, and environmental exposure—to ensure durability. By minimizing stress concentrations and preventing direct metal-to-metal contact, bushings enhance system efficiency, reduce maintenance needs, and contribute to smoother, quieter operation in mechanical systems.
