ACE rotary dampers provide an invisible yet valuable service as a maintenance-free machine element to allow controlled deceleration of rotary or linear movements.
They are often necessary to make careful opening and closing of small lids, compartments and drawers possible. They protect sensitive components while increasing the quality and value of products. They are easy to integrate. The harmoniously gentle movements of these little decelerators can be achieved with continual rotation or with limited pivoting angles. They slow down left, right or bi-directional rotation. Suitable for almost any application and also available in adjustable variations, they provide braking torques of 0.44 in-lbs to 354 in-lbs.
