Vibration isolation of test stands and measuring tables

Low Freq. Pneumatic Levelling Mounts PLM

Various components of the Iserlohn University of Applied Sciences test stand, such as the DC motor which drives the oil pumps, cause the structure to vibrate. Now, PLM air spring elements from ACE positioned at six supporting points ensure silence Copyright: South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Machine Building, 58644 Iserlohn, Germany

Individual vibration damping for complex pump test stands through low-frequency air spring systems

A university of applied sciences team optimises oil pumps to reduce the fuel consumption of combustion motors. Numerous tests are necessary for this. A test stand caused undesired vibrations. PLM air spring elements from ACE ensure damping at several points. The optimum design was achieved with the company-produced measurement case and an external measuring sensor that was connected to a tablet PC. The low-frequency elements provide a significant isolating effect from a frequency of 5 hertz and above, and prove themselves to be significantly more effective than the previously used rubber-metal isolators.

Profile Dampers - TUBUS TR

End position damping for hydraulic cylinders in test systems In a testing facility for vehicle tanks, the test specimens are pulled out of the water with a support arm. A hydraulic cylinder carries out the swinging movement and is attenuated in the end position by two TUBUS TR85-50. Even if this work could be taken over by other absorber solutions, the energy balance clearly speaks for the benefits of the profile dampers: they are inexpensive, they save space, they are free of leaks due to solid construction and are suitable for underwater functions in the test pool.

Profile Dampers - TUBUS TA

Safety damping for the loading mechanism of lathes ACE TUBUS profile dampers protect the integrated loading station on a new high speed machining centre. The ACE TUBUS damper is designed to prevent overrun on the high speed loading station of a Camshaft machining centre used in the automobile industry. In the event that the drive train fails during operation or incorrect data is inputted the ACE TUBUS damper absorbs the impact preventing costly damage to the machine. The TA98-40 TUBUS damper impressed engineers with this exceptionally long service life in operation. When used as an emergency stop the TUBUS damper can absorb up to 73 % of the impact energy.

Profile Dampers - TUBUS TA

Profile dampers and compact sliders: sheet metal working up to 1 million strokes For the forming, folding, punching and cutting of steel sheets, voestalpine Camtec GmbH wanted to realise new compact slides that achieve service lives beyond 1 million strokes. The company was looking for compact dampers that could absorb the greatest possible forces when integrated into the tool as an end stop. After a consultation and sampling process, the choice fell on ACE TUBUS profile dampers.

Profile Dampers - TUBUS TR-H

Protection of people and machines during automated sealing of screw caps The universal capping machine from Metallatelier GmbH is used to automatically seal various bottles and sizes when filling them with disinfectants. To protect the movable topp art of the unit, including the hood, the designers were looking for inexpensive dampers. They chose our TR30-15H profile dampers because they had already had very good experiences with our hydraulic dampers.

Miniature Shock Absorbers - MC150 to MC600

Increase speed and reduce downtime with automatic sealing of screw caps A customer of Metallatelier GmbH needed a special machine for automatically capping bottles with disinfectant during the COVID-19 pandemic. The German company optimised a proven design for this purpose. This is also because the designers chose our miniature shock absorbers for end position damping and limiting the contact roller gripping movement. At the bottom, two MC150EUM brake the pneumatic linear slide, serve to limit the closing movement in the end position and also protect the entire construction in the event of an accident. At the top, a harder designed single type MC150EUMH ensures saved space and safe deceleration of the slide.

Industrial Shock Absorbers - MA/ML33 to MA/ML64

Securing linear drive units mechanically GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt, Germany, operates a unique accelerator for heavy ions. Currently, the international accelerator facility FAIR, one of the largest research projects worldwide, is being built there, aiming to produce and research matter in the laboratory that otherwise only occurs in the universe. For the collector ring, which is used to store and cool the ions, the GSI engineers were looking for mechanical rather than electronic components that protect the drive units which are equipped with powerful linear motors. They found what they were looking for when they got in touch with us.

Damping Pads - SLAB 030 to SLAB 300

Load protection for transport units in tyre testing systems The damping pads SLAB 030 to SLAB 300 were developed to absorb shock loads. In this case, they make tyre testing systems safer by providing optimum protection for the sliding parts of the machine during quality tests. The individual customisation of the ring shape of the centre arm and simple integration into the equipment also support the decision for applying these innovative absorber elements.
