Amusement rides

Horizontally/vertically moving masses or rail vehicles with end stop:

Problem:
In vertical and horizontal rides, an uncontrolled impact against the end stop can endanger the vehicles and passengers. Mechanical and design faults or human error can lead to this emergency situation in temporary structures.

Solution:
Use of an S-Series industrial shock absorber as a reliable end stop in an emergency, serving as a safety component. (emergency end stop)

Benefit:
Reduction or prevention of damage to vehicles and passengers by using the industrial shock absorber as an end stop.

Oscillating masses in temporary structures:

Problem:
In some equipment, for example Ferris wheel cabins, uncontrolled vibrations can cause pendulum impacts and, in extreme cases, personal injury.

Solution:
The pendulum motion is limited by using the COMPENSER® as a vibration absorber or rotary piston damper.

Benefit:
The pendulum deflections of the temporary structures remain within the permissible range.
