Viscoelastic Shock Absorbers
Simple Design – High reliability
The self-adjusting Viscoelastic Shock Absorbers are designed on the principals of hydrostatic compression to combine the funtion of a shock absorber and a spring.
The advantages are a high damping coefficient, a low sensitivity to temperature changes and increased security by integrated static preload.
Viscoelastic shock absorbers are being used across a wide range of applications within heavy industry. Examples include, Material Handling, Rolling Mills, Defense, Waterways and Paper production.
Static force range 6,500 N to 740,000 N
Impact velocity range 0.5 m/s bis 5 m/s. Other speeds on request.
Operating temperature range -20 °C to +50 °C. Other temperatures on request.
