Feed controls

Feed controls are used to control traverse rates. They can control the parallel feed in both directions or be used as a compensating element for moving loads. As a security element, they prevent the sudden retraction of devices.

These hydraulic speed controller provide fixed speed movement regardless of mass and thrust force.

Operation of a hydraulic speed controller

The speed control is done by letting a fluid (oil or silicone) pass through an orifice. The passage of this fluid, pressurized by the application, leads to friction, therefore heating, which induces a slowing down which causes the speed control.

Applications

A hydraulic dampers allows you to :

•  Control the closing of a cover (lift inspection hatch...)
•  Control the closing of a cover (dustbin, machine...)
•  Control the cutting speed of a saw

• Constant speed rates

• Standard version, ex stock

• Bi-directional damping

• Easy to mount
