GAMMA FAILSAFE MEMBRANE SHOCK ABSORBERS
This family of shock absorbers is the result of GAMMA’s early development of anti-vibration systems; they form an essential part of our standard program.
- Operating temperatures: -55° to 150 °C
- High resistance to mechanical fatigue
- Vibration levels up to +/-3 mm
- Frequency from 8Hz
EXAMPLES OF APPLICATIONS
These shock absorbers are also used to create suspensions in fields more specific to navigation and optronic systems.
The principle behind these shock absorbers is to combine the intrinsic characteristics of our high-mechanical-performance elastomers with their ability to deform under stress.
This combination is used to achieve high working rates in relatively small volumes, effectively withstanding vibration levels of up to +/-3 mm with frequency ranges from 8 Hz and extended loading ranges. Another objective is to achieve high resistance to mechanical fatigue, with operational lifetimes of several million cycles, representing thousands of hours of operation.
