DESCRIPTION

Convoluted Air Spring

Convoluted air springs are made with single, double or triple bellows and are used in a variety of applications and suspensions. These air bags are found on all types of trucks, trailers, and industrial applications. They are available with a wide variety of load capacities, ride heights and mounting top and bottom plates.

The usefulness of air springs or actuators didn’t go unnoticed in the industrial machine industry, and it was clear they could provide unique solutions for various applications. Air actuators have seen duty as shock absorbers, linear actuators, vibration isolators, and tensioners, to name a few examples. They can be used to absorb shock in material handling applications, such as a saw mill, when logs are dropped onto processing stations. Air springs make some of the best vibration isolators on the market, such as would be used on a vibrating hopper or commercial laundry machine. In summation, air springs are a high force, low cost actuator that can operate in a linear fashion or at an angle. They can be stacked to provide longer strokes or greater angular rotation.

With that being said, there are a few things to take into consideration. In the winter months, you will want to ensure there is no water or condensation in your air tank. A water trap for your tank can fix this issue and ensure nothing freezes. You will also need to routinely check all of your components and air lines to ensure they are free of any defects. This is really important for exterior mounted items such as air lines and air shocks.
