MC150 to MC600

ACE's MC150 to MC600 dampers offer exceptional endurance and the lowest reset force. Their hermetically sealed rolling diaphragm technology ensures a service life of up to 25 million cycles. These maintenance-free, ready-to-install shock absorbers feature progressive energy capacities and are compatible with impact angles of up to 25°, when a side-load adapter is fitted, making them suitable for a variety of applications: including materials handling equipment, packaging equipment, medium-sized robotics and machine tools. They can also be installed inside a cylinder for end-of-stroke damping in pneumatic systems.

MC150-V4A to MC600-V4A

The MC150-V4A to MC600-V4A miniature dampers are made of stainless steel and offer high performance, endurance and corrosion protection. Based on the MC150 to MC600 product series, these self-compensating dampers ensure perfectly progressive energy absorption. Thanks to their stainless steel (AISI 316L) construction and a comprehensive range of stainless steel accessories, they are ideal for medical, electrotechnical, marine, packaging and chemical applications. They can also be filled with food-grade oil for food processing applications.

Industrial shock absorbers

MC33 to MC64

The MC33 to MC64 dampers in ACE's MAGNUM range offer high energy absorption and robust design. They feature the latest damper technology with self-compensating capabilities, offering longer life and a wide damping range, making them highly advantageous for a variety of industrial automation and machine engineering applications.

MC33-V4A to MC64-V4A

The MC33-V4A to MC64-V4A dampers in ACE's MAGNUM range offer optimum protection against corrosion, thanks to their stainless steel construction (AISI 316L) and a special oil suitable for the food industry. These self-compensating industrial dampers offer high energy absorption capacity, a wide damping range and robust design, making them ideal for a variety of industries, including food, medical, electronics, offshore, etc.

MC33-HT to MC64-HT

MAGNUM MC33-HT to MC64-HT dampers are specially designed for high-temperature, high-cycle applications. Thanks to special seals and fluids, they can operate reliably at temperatures ranging from 0°C to 150°C, offering a wide damping range and high energy absorption in a compact design. These self-compensating industrial dampers are well suited to harsh conditions and find applications in factories, industrial automation and machine engineering.

MC33-LT to MC64-LT

The MC33-LT to MC64-LT dampers in the MAGNUM range are designed for extreme low-temperature applications, with the ability to operate reliably at temperatures ranging from -50°C to 66°C. These self-compensating industrial dampers offer a wide damping range, high energy absorption in a compact design and robust sealing technology, making them well suited to a variety of industrial, automation and machine engineering applications, even under adverse conditions.
