Advantages of air-spring suspension

Air Spring Systems for Industrial Application

Advantages

operating height

Constant operating height

The operating height of ContiTech air springs can be adjusted via the air pressure, regardless of the load. There is no static deflection as with other spring components. A user-friendly, automatically functioning control system guarantees a uniform operating height, even in the case of alternating loads.

Lateral stability

Lateral stability

ContiTech air springs have excellent lateral stability. ContiTech isolators attain a lateral rigidity of up to 100% of the vertical rigidity, depending on the type.

isolation properties

Load-independent isolation properties

The spring stiffness is proportional to the load capacity. Vibration isolation is virtually independent of the load, so natural frequencies remain constant even with fluctuating loads. The broad load range of ContiTech air isolators provides possibilities for standardizing the spring types in assembly families.

installation height

Low installation height

ContiTech air isolators have a low design height and no static deflection.
