Products - Heavy Duty Industrial Shock Absorber Stacker Crane Buffers

Assortment of Heavy Duty Shock Absorbers

Recent years have seen the size and speed of production cranes and automated stacker crane warehouse systems increase. To accommodate the increase in kinetic energy as a result a range of heavy duty shock absorbers have been developed.

A hydraulic shock absorber is the most cost effective reliable method to dissipate the energy generated by an impact. A spring or rubber buffer will add to the shock loading rather than reducing it and will not dissipate energy at a consistent rate. The moving object is therefore subjected to high shock loading at either the end, or the beginning, of the deceleration stroke.

Due to our CNC-based production we have established a good reputation for providing a very short delivery lead time.

With the help of calculation software for shock absorbers you can easily find the best deceleration solution*
