The safety solution when impacting
GANTRY supplies OLEO hydraulic buffers as a safety
device at the end of tracks : gantry cranes, funiculars, ...
Other applications involving buffers include industrial
processes : ground tracks, rotating bridges, .....
| Principle |
 |

Under impact the plunger slides into the cylinder
and generates oil displacement. The kinetic energy is then transformed
into heat energy, which dissipates later in the atmosphere. An
automatic device re-opens the buffer to its normal rest position.
| Characteristics |
 |
- A maximum safety environment for the personnel working nearby.
- An optimum protection for the travelling machine, as well
as for the buildings’ structures.
- An uniform deceleration, along with low dynamic reactions.
- A robust construction for heavy engineering environment.
- A high impact frequency capacity.
| Range |
