Hydraulic Damper
MacScott Bond are please to offer ACE controls' hydraulic dampers. There are three main models; the DVC, HBD and HB, which have more information about each below.
DVC
The DVC models of hydraulic damper from ACE controls offer individual adjustments for the push and pull directions as well as the bi-directional action making them suitable as safety or control elements.
A large selection of mounting accessories is available ensuring that the assembly of these hydraulic dampers is easy by being universally applicable. These maintenance-free and self-contained systems are built with quality in mind, whilst maintaining their simplicity in use.
These dampers have been used in the automotive sector, automation and machine building as well as in the electronics industry. For example, one of their uses is to absorb swinging loads.
HBD
The HBD model of hydraulic damper is available with body diameters from 0.59" (15 mm) to 1.57" (40 mm) and with stroke lengths of up to 31.5" (800 mm).
The double-acting hydraulic dampers are standard with a single acting design available. To adjust the damper pull and turn the rod until the desired damping speed is achieved. The travel speed is adjustable and remains constant throughout the stroke.
The single acting version is controllable in one direction only, with free-flow in the opposite direction. A built-in antilock guard allows adjustment to be made at any damping rate without unit lock up.
HBD hydraulic dampers are used for process control, machine guards, lids, hatches, fire safety doors, arms for medical equipment, conveyors, swinging loads, machine tools, lift gates, drill feed control, amusement park rides, and more.
HB
The easily adjustable HB hydraulic dampers are also maintenance free and ready-to-install with closed systems to provide a constant feed rate.
As with the other hydraulic dampers these too have a wide range of end fittings to choose from so that the damper can be universally deployed for damping swinging masses, such as in power or free conveyors. They can be found in automotive, automation and machine building, medical technology or the electronics and furniture industry.
