Rotary Dampers

Rotary Dampers, Moveable Bin Motion Control Devices, Stowage Bin Actuation Devices, Rotary Hinge Damper
With aircraft OEMs always looking for ways to bring new efficiencies and lower cost to their operations, the Enidine Hinged Rotary Dampers brings both to the evolution of fixed stowage bin design. Traditional stowage bins employed linear actuators to provide controlled door opening. These Rotary Dampers are part of a multi-part system, which also includes actuator covers, mounting clevises, piano hinges, etc. By integrating the hinge, actuation and damping all in one high strength molded plastic device, Enidine Hinge Rotary Dampers bring many benefits to bin designs.
