Stroke (mm)

With the aid of the characteristic curves above you can estimate the proportion of the total energy that will be absorbed.

Example: With impact energy of 1300 Nm the Energy-Stroke diagram shows that a stroke of about 38 mm is needed. On the

Force-Stroke diagram you can estimate the proportion of absorbed energy to rebound energy at this stroke length.

Note: with these types the return force towards the end of the stroke is significant and we recommend you try to use a mini-

mum of 90 % of the total stroke available.

Dynamic (v > 0.5 m/s) and static (v <

– 0.5 m/s) characteristics of all types are available on request.
