Silence enters the caravan with Bubble Mounts
In a luxury motorhome, two compressors, each weighing 7.3 kg, are responsible for the air supply system of the suspension, doors and toilets when parked. These are poorly insulated as standard, so their vibrations are transmitted to the bodywork and disturb the passengers' sleep, especially at night. After using our design tool for the online calculation of vibration dampers, the owner provides a remedy in the form of four bubble mounts each and a degree of insulation of over 95 percent.
Profile Dampers - TUBUS TR-H
Profile dampers make excellent electric scooters even better
For the second generation of their unique, because foldable and three-wheeled e-scooter, the engineers of scuddy GmbH & Co. KG aimed for even more individual damping than the previous model. This electric scooter already uses our TUBUS profile dampers and SLAB cut-to-size shock absorption plates. After consultations with us and successful sampling, scuddy now uses TUBUS of the basic types TR64-41H-OS, TR68-37H-OS or TR79-42H-OS in the new e-scooter Premium V2, depending on the weight class of the owners.
Industrial Gas Springs – Push Type - GS-8 to GS-70
Motion optimisation of accelerators in racing cars
The versatility of ACE's industrial gas springs is demonstrated through their use in a racing car. Installed on the accelerator, they compensate disruptive pedal movements through the backflow of nitrogen when the throttle valve is opened. This compensation is achieved through the gas spring building up slight counter pressure. The driver’s foot is thus stabilised in critical situations and can hold the desired pedal position more consistently, despite the vibrations from driving. This results in measurable improvements in both safety and in lap times in comparison to the previously used screw springs.
Rotary Dampers - FDT
Steering stabilisation for toboggans and sport vehicles
In this innovative tobogganing vehicle called Pistenbock-Cross rotation dampers from ACE come into action. These help to effectively damen unexpected steering turns and smooth the overall process to improve driving comfort and safety. Two FDT rotary dampers are mounted counter-rotating with the use of spacers underneath the steering stool. A square square engages in the rotary dampers, thus enabling the steering behavior to be optimized. The design prevents sudden tearing of the steering in the event of a collision with larger obstacles and offers the driver greater safety on impassable stretches of road.
Hydraulic Dampers - HB-12 to HB-70
Steering stabilisation for cargo bikes and E-Trikes
The delivery of goods has become very popular with supermarkets. This has increased the demand for bicycles to avoid congestion and contribute to environmental protection. For this type of transport and fast deliveries, a customized small series of cargo bikes in underfloor construction was designed and equipped with electric drive and hydraulic dampers. The dampers supplied by ACE are variably adjustable in compression or traction force from 30 N up to 3,000 N. They soothe the chassis of the E-Trikes, serve for safety and increase driving comfort.
Industrial Gas Springs – Push Type - GS-8 to GS-70
Gas springs support lifting forces of stand-up wheelchairs
The developers of the PR Biolution stand-up wheelchair from PARAVAN avoid even the smallest jerky movements for the benefit of rehab patients. Therefore, they designed the aid, which was developed according to the strict guidelines of medical technology, with machine elements for maximum stability and safety. This was achieved, among other things, by integrating industrial gas pressure springs from ACE, which perfectly regulate the running and acceleration forces of the electric motor.
Rubber-Metal Isolators - All Altitude Mounts
Electronics for autonomous driving secured with vibration dampers
For their special kits for converting commercially available electric tractors into automated guided vehicles (AGVs), Schiller Automatisierungstechnik GmbH was looking for a fail-safe solution to protect the sensitive electronics in the control cabinet. After a brief internet search in the field of vibration technology, the engineers found what they were looking for on this homepage: After online design and immediate sampling, four rubber-metal isolators of the basic type AAM-5220 proved to be a perfect fit.
