Rubber Damper for Shock Absorption - Water Droplet Design
(VD/VV/VP/VB)
Rubber shock absorbers are widely used due to their effective
utilization of the following characteristics of rubber:
1. High elasticity and viscoelasticity enable rubber to absorb and
dissipate shock energy.
2. Rubber has a larger deformation capacity and lower modulus
compared to steel, making it an ideal material for shock absorption
applications.
3. The impact stiffness of rubber is greater than its dynamic
stiffness, which, in turn, is greater than its static stiffness.
This property is beneficial in reducing impact and dynamic
deformation.
4. Rubber can be molded into various shapes, and its hardness can
be adjusted through formula design to meet the requirements of
different directions of stiffness and strength.

When selecting a shock absorber, it is important to understand its
characteristics and to choose one that is appropriate for the
environment in which it will be used. Rubber shock absorbers, for
example, can be designed to meet specific requirements in terms of
shape and hardness, and they offer a greater damping ratio than
springs. They are also versatile in terms of their capacity to
withstand shear, tensile and compressive forces, and they are
relatively easy to install.
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of shock absorbers, it
is crucial to choose the right materials for the specific
environment in which they will be used. Proper material selection
can greatly improve the performance and life of shock absorbers,
ensuring they can effectively dampen shock and vibration to protect
your equipment and machinery.
