AIR SPRINGS:  Due to the unique capabilities of Air Springs products, many applications are in use where the product is used for both ACTUATION and VIBRATION ISOLATION. Airstroke™ actuators are used as a short stroke, high force, single acting pneumatic actuator. Its unique capabilities make it ideal for friction free, leak free, flexible force applications. Airmount™ isolators are used to support and isolate external vibrations, or support a vibrating load and prevent its energy from disturbing the surroundings. System natural frequencies as low as 1 Hz can be accomplished. Applications: Presses, Stamping, Conveyors, Clamping, Paper and textile balancers. Shock & Vibration test equipment, insulators for Motor and conveyors and many more.

Product overview Air Springs (3MB)

Marsh Mellow™ springs are used like the Airmount™ isolator as vibration isolators. However, they do not require air inflation. While not as efficient as air springs, Marsh Mellow™ springs are an effective passive isolator with superior characteristics to steel springs.

Marsh Mellow™ springs cannot break, trap particles, corrode or bottom-out. Each spring features a bias-ply fabric wrap for dependability and uniform performance.
The variable rate/constant frequency of the spring allows each spring size to accommodate a wide load range and perform consistency, whatever the load.

The stroke length varies from 20 mm to over 1 meter, with rod diameters from 4 mm to 30 mm. Depending on the model we offer forces as little as 10N  up to 10,000N.

LDA provides professional technical advice and helps you defining the perfect position of your gas spring. Our extensive experience ensures the correct calculation of a gas spring for your application.

Many special designs are available upon request, such as adjustable height gas springs, shock absorbers and nitrogen springs for heavy duty applications. All possible accessories are also available.

GAS SPRING types:

The Lift gas springs is our most popular gas spring. This type of gas spring is used as a counterbalance of weights and as a speed control device. They meet the highest worldwide standards for lifting, counter-balancing, lowering, tilting and damping of lids and covers.

Traction gas springs: The working principle of the GT-Lift is the opposite of the Lift type gas spring. While the Lift type gas spring is always prepared to extend the GT-Lift’s function is to compress itself.

Stainless Steel Gas Springs: For high corrosion resistance a wide range of stainless steel gas springs are available. These gas springs are produced for external applications such as the marine industry and for applications where a high level of cleanliness and hygiene is necessary (such as the food industry).

Stop lift gas springs have a special internal structure enabling the gas spring variable
positioning on the application. On applications where the Stop lift is used you will be able to stop the gas spring at any desired position. The gas spring will not move until an additional force is applied.

STEP-STOP gas springs with multi stroke section is a multi-section operating gas spring dividing the operating stroke into multi distinct sections for desired flap positioning. Grooves inside the tube allow the step-stop gas spring to stop at various custom predefined angles.

Lift & Lock gas springs with end positioning locking. As a regular lift type but with an additional end position locking feature. Depending on the type you can choose the end locking available at the extended, compressed or both positions.

Gas Springs for heavy duty applications: Lift gas springs for forces up to 7.4 KN to 50 KN.
