Rotary dampers ACE
Rotary speed controllers or rotary dampers are almost invisible but indispensable machine components that allow controlled deceleration of rotary or linear movements without maintenance.
They are therefore ideal for controlling and slowing down movements with continuous rotation or with limited swivel angles. They therefore slow down the rotation to the left, right or both sides.
These rotary dampers are suitable for all types of applications and are available in adjustable variants and damping torques from 0.001 Ncm to 40 Nm.
Easy to integrate, rotary dampers allow the precise opening and closing of small covers, compartments and drawers. In this way, they protect sensitive components while increasing the quality and value of products.
All ACE rotary dampers are maintenance-free and ready to install.

FRT series
Small and lightweight for precision damping and composed of a plastic body that rotates in both directions, FRT speed controllers are the smallest in the ACE range and are capable of damping directly into the pivot point or linearly through a gear and rack.
FRT-E2
- Damping torque from 0.1 Ncm to 0.4 Ncm
- Small and lightweight
- Plastic body
FRT-G2
- Damping torque from 0.2 Ncm to 1 Ncm
- Continuous rotation
- Plastic body
FRT-C2 & FRN-C2
- Damping torque from 2 Ncm to 3 Ncm
- Continuous rotation, either left, right or both sides
- Flexible and economical use
- Plastic body
FRT-D2 & FRN-D2
- Damping torque from 5 Ncm to 15 Ncm
- Continuous rotation, either left, right or both sides
- Flexible and economical use
- Plastic body
FRT-F2/K2 & FRN-F2/K2
- Damping torque from 200 Ncm to 400 Ncm
- Supports heavy components
- Long service life
- Continuous rotation, either left, right or both sides
FFD series
Unlike other rotary dampers, FFD does not require fluid to generate braking torque because it operates on the friction principle. This means that temperature or speed variations have practically no influence on the damping torque. FFD rotary damper is available in two body variants and two types of bearings.
- Damping torque from 0.1 Nm to 3 Nm
- Precise braking without oil
- Continuous rotation
FDT & FDN Series
Composed of a flat and robust steel body, the FDT & FDN rotary dampers brake the speed on both sides and directly in the pivot point.
FDT
- Damping torque from 2 Nm to 8.7 Nm
- Flat disc brake
- Square container
- Continuous rotation, either left, right or both sides
FDN
- Damping torque from 2 Nm to 11 Nm
- Flat disc brake
- Continuous rotation, either left or right
FYN Series
The FYN series rotary dampers can be mounted directly in the pivot point. During each reverse movement of the unilateral deceleration versions, there is a return time that depends on the size of the shock absorber.
FYN-P1
- Damping torque from 100 Ncm to 180 Ncm
- Partial rotation angle, left or right
- Small diameter, high braking torque
- Differentiation of the direction of rotation by the coloured rod
FYN-N1
- Damping torque 100 Ncm to 300 Ncm
- Partial rotation angle, left or right
- Small diameter, high braking torque
- Differentiation of the direction of rotation by the coloured end cap
FYN-U1
- Damping torque from 200 Ncm to 300 Ncm
- Partial rotation angle, left or right
- Pressure hardened zinc body
- Small, strong and robust
FYN-S1
- Damping torque from 5 Nm to 10 Nm
- Flat body and zinc pressure hardened
- Constant motion sequence for different masses
- Partial rotation angle, left or right
- Flat shock absorber for constant protection of components
FYT-H1, FYN-H1, FYT-LA3 & FYN-LA3 series
The braking direction of the rotary dampers in this series can be adjusted either to the left, right or both sides. The brakes consist of a particularly robust zinc body hardened under pressure and a steel rod. During each reverse movement of the unilateral deceleration versions, there is a return time that depends on the size of the shock absorber.
FYT-H1 & FYN-H1
- Damping torque from 2 Nm to 10 Nm
- High braking force and specific adjustment possible
- Partial and adjustable rotation angle
FYT-LA3 & FYN-LA3
- Damping torque from 4 Nm to 40 Nm
- High braking force and specific adjustment possible
- Partial and adjustable rotation angle
A multitude of possible applications
- Photocopier cover
- CD and cassette player
- Glove box cover (automotive)
- Removable table and flap (buses, trains and planes)
- Furniture industry (lid, door, hatch...)
- More atypical: card shuffling machines, invisible protection for kitchen hood
