FLUID DAMPERS

INDIVIDUAL DAMPERS FLUID DAMPERS PRINCIPLE OF FUNCTION ► In a closed housing a piston is moving back- and forward. A food-safe silicon-oil can flow in both directions through small channels. The viscosity of the oil, as well as the modification of the cross-section of the channels, leads to the friction needed to reduce the speed. The friction-heat will be channeled outside through the cylinder-wall. Return spring ► Highest energy-consumption on smallest cross section ► Different damping-characteristics possible DAMPER WITH AND WHITOUT RESET-FUNCTION Damper without reset-function needs a...

TYPES Classic smooth Force as a function of velocity and stroke Force as a function of velocity and stroke ► Force can be modified through the crosssection of the nozzle Classic defined Force The nozzle let the oil flow constantly: ► Highest force on smallest space available Comfort smooth Force as a function of velocity and stroke Force as a function of velocity and stroke Comfort defined Force Oil is flowing around the piston. The housing is expanding at high pressure whereas through this gap the oil is flowing. ► Overload-protection ► Different graphs possible hi Versatile smooth Force...
