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.
Most often, however, an air actuator is simply two end plates
connected by a bladder, and as they’re pressurized, force pushes
the plates away from each other. As linear actuators, they can
provide up to 35 tons of force, making them useful in various press
applications, such as a forming press or small stamping press. Air
actuators are also excellent for constant force applications, such
as pulley tensioners or drum roller compression devices. All air
springs are single-acting, unless they are coupled together so one
extends while the other retracts.
