Adjustable Energy capacity 170 Nm/Cycle to 6,780 Nm/Cycle Stroke 23.1 mm to 150 mm
Adjustable and unique: These industrial shock absorbers from ACE, which can be precisely adjusted both at the front and rear, also contribute towards the success of the MAGNUM range. Equipped with excellent sealing technology, an annealed guide bearing and integrated positive stop, they are robust and durable.
These dampers absorb 50 % more energy than their predecessors but are built even more compactly. The larger range of effective loads also opens up various options in design and assembly. This makes the ML range especially suitable for effective loads of 300 kg to 500,000 kg. Where work is done with changing application data and wherever flexibility is required, they make the best option.
These adjustable industrial shock absorbers are used in all areas of mechanical engineering - e.g. in automation, integrated in linear carriages or pivoting units and also for gantries.
Impact velocity range MA: 0.15 m/s to 5 m/s. ML: 0.02 m/s to 0.46 m/s. Other speeds on request.
Operating temperature range -12 °C to +66 °C. Other temperatures on request.
Mounting in any position
Positive stop Integrated
Adjustment Hard impact at the start of stroke, adjust the ring towards 9. Hard impact at the end of stroke, adjust the ring towards 0.
Material Outer body: nitride hardened steel; Piston rod: hard chrome plated steel; Rod end button: hardened steel and corrosion-resistant coating; Return spring: zinc plated or plastic-coated steel; Accessories: steel with black oxide finish or nitride hardened
Damping medium Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)
Application field linear slides, swivel units, turntables, portal systems, machines and plants, tool machines, machining centres, Z-axes, impact panels, handling modules
Technical Notes
Note
A noise reduction of 3 dB to 7 dB is possible when using the special impact button (PP). For emergency use only applications and for continous use (with additional cooling) it is sometimes possible to exceed the published max. capacity ratings. In this case, please consult ACE.
Safety information
External materials in the surrounding area can attack the seal components and lead to a shorter service life. Please contact ACE for appropriate solution suggestions. Do not paint the shock absorbers due to heat emission.
On request
Special oils, nickel-plated, increased corrosion protection, mounting inside air cylinders or other special options are available on request.
