ADA Rate Controls
Regulated Motion Control Made Easy
Enidine Rate Controls are used to regulate the speed or time required for a mechanism to move from one position to another. They use proven technology to enhance performance in a variety of product applications. Rate controls are typically used to control pneumatic cylinders, linear slides, lids, and other moving mechanisms. The advantages of using rate controls include:
Longer Machine Life – The use of rate controls significantly reduces shock and vibration to machinery caused by uncontrolled machine operation. This further reduces machinery damage, downtime and maintenance costs, while increasing machine life.
Improved Production Quality – Harmful effects of uncontrolled motion, such as noise, vibration and damaging impacts, are moderated or eliminated so that production quality is improved.
Safer Machinery Operation – Rate controls protect machinery and equipment operators by offering predictable, reliable and controlled machine operation.
Competitive Advantage – Machines and end products become more valuable because of increased productivity, longer life, lower maintenance and safer operation. Enidine offers a wide range of rate controls that provide motion control in tension, compression, or both directions. Adjustable and non-adjustable tamperproof models are available to fit your particular application requirements. The resisting force provided by Enidine rate controls is typically constant over the entire stroke when the piston rod is moved at a constant velocity, since the rate controls are single orifice products.
Yes. These shock absorbers can be orifice to provide specific damping for a particular application. When the shock absorbers are custom orifice they are referred to as CBOEM shock absorbers.
No, the design incorporates an air charged bladder accumlator.
The small series OEM shock absorbers can be adjusted by rotating the adjustment knob at the back of the shock absorber.
The maximum side-load angle allowed by Enidine Incorporated is 10° (+5°). For a rotating arm, door, lid or circuit breaker for example, the moving load should be perpendicular to the center-line of the piston rod when it is halfway through the stroke.
Locate the applications impact velocity on the Y-axis and the selected model graph line. Follow the impact velocity horizontally until it intersects the selected model graph line. Follow the intersection point vertically down to the X-axis. The value at the X-axis is the maximum allowable adjustment setting.
Enidine Incorporated offers a full assortment of accessories that include stop collars, jam nuts, cylinder clevises, foot mounts and cap pads. Not all accessories are available with all models.
Generally the shock absorber's energy capacity per hour can be increased by 20%.
DA stands for double acting non-adjustable hydraulic damper. Applications range from doors and lids to amusement rides and conveyor systems.
Longer Life - It significantly reduces shock and vibration to machinery.
Higher Operating Speeds - Machines can be operated at higher speeds because of the Shock Absorber control or gently stop moving objects.
Improved Production Quality - Harmful side effects of motion, such as noise and vibration and damaging impacts are moderate or eliminated, so the quality of production is improved.
Safer Machinery - Protects machinery and operators by offering predictable, reliable and controlled deceleration.

Dampers, Buffers, Dashpost, Snubbers and Isolators.
The OEM small series shock absorbers are a series of adjustable shock absorbers that have bore siezes of 1/4 inch to 5/8 inch in diameter and stroke lengths of .28 inches to 2 inches depending on model.
HD is the name of Enidine Incorporated's Heavy Duty series of shock absorbers.
A specially designed DA which dampen abrupt starts and stops of power and free conveying systems.
CBOEM is a custom orifice non - adjustable unit, which meets specific application requirement.
Allows linear deceleration by providing a constant shock force over the entire stroke.
This provides the largest shock force at the beginning of the stroke when the impact velocity is highest.
This provides deceleration with a gradually increasing shock force. The initial minimal resistance at impact protects delicate loads and machinery from damage.
The OEM small bore series shock absorbers have an adjustment range of 0 minimum damping to 8.0 maximum damping .
Typically the HD models are charged at the factory to between 30 and 40 psi.
The standard operational temperature range is 15 to 180°F (-10 to 85°C).
The OEM .1 through .5 provide dashpot type damping. The OEM 1.0, OEM 1.25 x 1 and OEM 1.25 x 2 provide conventional type damping.
A. When the application's energy per hour exceeds the maximum rating for self contained units.
B. When the piston rod sequence must be controlled.
