Hydraulic Buffers

Hydraulic buffers minimize the dynamic load of systems during the moment of the buffer impact. They are used anywhere, where reliability, operational security and availability are important factors. The system of throttling allows precise buffer pressures and optimum load-length characteristic curves. Undesirable energy peaks are avoided, masses to be slowed down are decelerated evenly and the kinetic energy is reduced linearly. Due to the closed, hydro-pneumatic system any installation position of the hydraulic buffers is possible. In addition the closed system protects the throttling system from tampering and so from modification of the defined characteristic curves.

Applications for hydraulic buffers are anywhere, where moving masses have to be decelerated reliably.
