...are used as safety and function elements in order to dampen speed and slow down masses.
Used in a wide variety of industrial applications, easylift® gas springs cover a broad range of both dimensions and forces which can be easily adapted to meet individual requirements. Besides the automotive and furniture industry, there are innumerable applications in the machinery and equipment design. We can also offer special solutions to meet the requirements in the medical and aircraft industry. The continuous production of special sizes and our extensive stock enable us to meet nearly all requirements within a remarkably short lead time.
For times when different damping intensities are required, we recommend using our adjustable easylift® MC Dampers. These allow the damping speed to be adjusted when the damper is mounted, and are also a great solution when damping intensities are yet to be define
The specification with damping over the entire stroke contains only oil. Due to the construction, there will be a small amount of slip when the piston rod is pulled out. The push-in and push-out speed, or the effective slowing down (motion control) of the movement of a mass can be influenced considerably by the use of different nozzles, as well as by different oil viscosities.
If the installation is horizontal or undefined, the free movement of the standard specification can be inconvenient. Therefore, the easylift system provides also a damping variety with floating piston. The separation of the oil and gas chamber guarantees a smooth damping movement in every required position. For the stabilization of the floating piston, it has to be pressurized by at least 20N. Depending on the position of the floating piston, the damper can be installed stably in either the push or pull direction.
This easylift® damping variety allows a controlled damping in both directions, without slip effect. Here, the piston moves completely in a fixed oil chamber. The piston rod volume doesn't influence the oil chamber neither with pushed-in nor with pushed-out piston rod.
