Automotive & Industrial Benefits of Air Springs


The usefulness of air springs is associated to suspension systems in heavy-duty vehicles. Why? They take advantage of the compressed air needed for supporting the vehicle braking systems. In the recent past, air springs have offered a two-fold benefit over coil-springs. It has been noticed that with the implementation of these special springs, extra comfort is guaranteed. With the change in air pressure present within the spring, changes are experienced in spring rate, and finally the ride quality.


Industrial Applications of Air Springs
It should be known that, the benefit of air actuators or springs hasn’t been unnoticed across the industrial machine sector. Air actuators are utilized as shock absorbers, vibration isolators, linear actuators and tensioners. With this application field, the air springs market has indeed seen a major growth in the past few years.

The industrial usage of air springs is primarily to absorb shock in material handling tasks, for example a saw mill in which logs are released over processing stations. In addition, air springs act as the finest vibration isolators, making them useful to be used in a commercial laundry machine or vibrating hopper.

Types of Air Springs
At present, the two prime versions of air spring available in the market are the convoluted bellow and rolling lobe (or reversible sleeve). Talking about the rolling lobe air spring, it makes use of a solo rubber bladder that folds inward and even rolls outward. This motion depends on the distance and direction in which it is moved. On the other hand, the convoluted bellow air spring comprises of three shorter bellows, including the multiple units armored using a girdle hoop. It is interesting to know that, convoluted air springs are known to produce ten times the force as compared to a rolling lobe air spring.

In case you are planning to invest in any of the air spring varieties, make sure to consult with an expert beforehand.
