The heavy industrial shock absorbers from ACE top off the company's offerings in damping technology. This ACE category gives Designers a choice between self-compensating and adjustable machine elements.
Whichever design is chosen, this type of shock absorber impresses with its robustness and operational readiness wherever heavy loads need to be reliably stopped on-the-spot and at a precise point.
The CA4 models can absorb up to 1,120,000 in/lbf (126,500 Nm) of energy. The series of heavy duty, self-compensating “CA“ types are equally suitable for use as an emergency stop as are the adjustable types with the designations “A“. The range of effective loads covered is increased considerably for this purpose.
Heavy Industrial Shock Absorbers Ace Controls, Inc. Product Families
Heavy Industrial Shock Absorbers CA2 to CA4:Deceleration of heavy loads
Self-Compensating
Energy capacity 21,000 in-lbs/Cycle to 1,120,000 in-lbs/Cycle
Stroke 2 in to 16 in
Powerful: The weight of these high capacity absorbers are between 28.2 lbs and 322 lbs. (12.8 and 146 kg). They complement ACE's product range of self-compensating shock absorbers. All models from this product family are designed for applications where robustness and large energy absorption are important.
ACE uses our proprietary custom calculation program to design each shock absorber for the specific customer application. Customization helps reduce the risk of crashes and incorrect product sizing. The CA models can absorb up to 1,119,620 in-lbs (126,500 Nm) of energy and can be used in the area of effective weights between 1,543 lbs and 718,707 lbs. (700 kg and 326,000 kg). The combination of being extremely solid, absorbing high levels of energy and having a large damping range makes them invaluable. Self-compensating shock absorbers react to changing energy conditions, without adjustment.
These heavy duty self-compensating industrial shock absorbers are primarily used in heavy industrial engineering e.g. on lift bridges and steel structures or for damping sluice systems.
Heavy Industrial Shock Absorbers A1 1/2 to A3:Deceleration of heavy loads and progressive adjustment
Adjustable
Energy capacity 21,000 in-lbs/Cycle to 390,000 in-lbs/Cycle
Stroke 2.00 in to 12.00 in
Strong and adjustable: Also in ACE's product range of units are adjustable heavy duty industrial shock absorbers. The models from the A1 1/2 to A3 range, which weigh between 16.6 lbs and 105.8 lbs (7.55 and 48 kg), are extremely robust, ready-to-install hydraulic machine components with impressively high energy absorption levels and a wide range of damping rates.
Their special aspect is the flexibility, as all the absorbers can be adjusted using a socket on the absorber base and be perfectly adapted to the application. The A models cover a range of effective weights from 0.66 lbs to 449,743 lbs. (0.3 to 204,000 kg) and can absorb up to 389,433 in-lbs. (44,000 Nm) energy.
These heavy duty, adjustable ACE industrial shock absorbers are the first choice in heavy duty applications and generally in heavy industrial maching design when the usage data has not been exactly determined.
