Unwanted vibrations disturb the smooth running of machines and devices and thus shorten their service life.
Vibration dampers from Stabilus convert the kinetic energy of moving components into thermal energy. In this way, they help to mitigate hard stops and avoid large vibration amplitudes.
Oil-hydraulic vibration dampers of the STAB-O-SHOC series generally feature symmetrical force distribution in the direction of tension and compression.
Typical designs of the vibration dampers guarantee uniformly defined damping even when motion is reversed.
When the load is reversed, the damping force starts immediately, i.e. the vibration dampers are directly force-locked, and the force transmission is free of idle stroke. With specially integrated piston systems, the forces in the direction of tension and compression can be adjusted individually and independently of one another.
Different design elements change their regulating effect on vibrations. Depending on the design, they also enable position-independent installation.
